Local Interstellar Flow Parameters from the First Intersection of IMAP-Lo's Parameter Tubes
Nathan A. Schwadron, Mitchell M. Shen, Fatemeh Rahmanifard +24
The Sun's motion through the interstellar medium creates a flow of interstellar neutral (ISN) atoms through the heliosphere. ISN He, due to its high universal abundance and relativ…
Storm-Time Cusp Precipitation: Insights from TRACERS Multi-Crossing Observations
Shirsh Lata Soni, David M. Miles, Jasper Halekas +12
The dayside cusp provides a direct pathway for solar wind plasma entry into the magnetosphere ionosphere system through magnetic reconnection. Using low altitude ion and electron m…
Energy partitioning between thermal and non-thermal electrons and ions in magnetotail reconnection
Abhishek Rajhans, Mitsuo Oka, Marit Ãieroset +9
Magnetic reconnection is an explosive energy release event. It plays an important role in accelerating particles to high non-thermal energies. These particles often exhibit energy…
Observation of O+ Characteristics During the Terrestrial Alfvén Wing State Induced by the April 2023 Coronal Mass Ejection
Haoming Liang, Li-Jen Chen, Stephen A. Fuselier +7
We report Magnetospheric Multiscale observations of oxygen ions (O+) during a coronal mass ejection in April 2023 when the solar wind was sub-Alfvénic and Alfvén wings formed. Fo…
Interaction of the Prominence Plasma within the Magnetic Cloud of an ICME with the Earth's Bow Shock
Hadi Madanian, Li-Jen Chen, Jonathan Ng +5
The magnetic cloud within an interplanetary coronal mass ejection (ICME) is characterized by high magnetic field intensities. In this study, we investigate the interaction of a mag…
Evidence for Abiotic Dimethyl Sulfide in Cometary Matter
Nora Hänni, Kathrin Altwegg, Michael Combi +5
Technological progress related to astronomical observatories such as the recently launched James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) allows searching for signs of life beyond our Solar Sys…
