Evidence of Interaction between Ion-Scale Waves and Ion Velocity Distributions in the Solar Wind
Yogesh, Leon Ofman, Scott A Boardsen +9
Recent in situ observations from Parker Solar Probe (PSP) near perihelia reveal ion beams, temperature anisotropies, and kinetic wave activity. These features are likely linked to…

Estimated Heating Rates Due to Cyclotron Damping of Ion-scale Waves Observed by Parker Solar Probe
Niranjana Shankarappa, Kristopher Klein, Mihailo Martinovic +1
Circularly polarized waves consistent with parallel-propagating ion cyclotron waves (ICWs) and fast magnetosonic waves (FMWs) are often observed by Parker Solar Probe (PSP) at ion…

Estimation of turbulent proton and electron heating rates via Landau damping constrained by Parker Solar Probe observations
Niranjana Shankarappa, Kristopher G. Klein, Mihailo M Martinović
The heating of ions and electrons due to turbulent dissipation plays a crucial role in the thermodynamics of the solar wind and other plasma environments. Using magnetic field and…
