Collisionless Phase Mixing Mimics Diffusive Transport in Radiation Belt Observations

Adnane Osmane, Xin An, Anton Artemyev +3

Since the dawn of the space age, observations of energetic particles in planetary radiation belts have been interpreted within a diffusive transport framework, even though the domi…

Compressive Structures in the Foreshock of Collisionless Shocks

Savvas Raptis, Domenico Trotta, Drew L. Turner +11

Collisionless shocks are fundamental accelerators of energetic particles; yet, the observations of nonlinear foreshock structures, which are essential in acceleration processes, di…

Universal energy limits of radiation belts in planetary and brown dwarf magnetospheric systems

Drew L. Turner, Savvas Raptis, Adnane Osmane +5

Radiation belts are regions of magnetically trapped particle radiation found around all of the sufficiently magnetized planets in the Solar System and recently also observed around…

Phase-Space Synchronization Driven by Moon-Magnetosphere Coupling in Gas Giants

Adnane Osmane, Elias Roussos, Peter Kollmann

We present a new theoretical framework to describe the rapid and spatially localized loss of energetic particles in planetary radiation belts, focusing on interactions between gas…

Multi-Mission Observations of Relativistic Electrons and High-Speed Jets Linked to Shock Generated Transients

Savvas Raptis, Martin Lindberg, Terry Z. Liu +19

Shock-generated transients, such as hot flow anomalies (HFAs), upstream of planetary bow shocks, play a critical role in electron acceleration. Using multi-mission data from NASA's…

On the Formation of Super-Alfvénic Flows Downstream of Collisionless Shocks

Adnane Osmane, Savvas Raptis

Super-Alfvénic jets, with kinetic energy densities significantly exceeding that of the solar wind, are commonly generated downstream of Earth's bow shock under both high and low be…

Relativistic electrons produced by foreshock disturbances

L. B. Wilson, D. G. Sibeck, D. L. Turner +3

Foreshock disturbances -- large-scale (~1000 km to >30,000 km), transient (~5-10 per day - lasting ~10s of seconds to several minutes) structures [1,2] - generated by suprathermal…
