Effects of the Background Magnetic Field on Flux Rope Eruptions

Xianyu Liu, Spiro K. Antiochos, Igor V. Sokolov +5

Solar eruptive events are generally believed to involve magnetic flux ropes (MFR), formed either in the pre-eruptive phase of the event or during the eruption itself. These MFR eru…

Interstellar Dust Transport Through the Heliosphere Including the Sector Region

Jonathan D. Slavin, Marc Kornbleuth, Merav Opher +1

Interstellar dust has been detected in situ flowing through the heliosphere. However, our ability to derive the density and size distribution of the interstellar dust in the local…

A kinetic-magnetohydrodynamic model with adaptive mesh refinement for modeling heliosphere neutral-plasma interaction

Yuxi Chen, Gabor Toth, Erick Powell +4

The charge exchange between the interstellar medium (ISM) and the solar wind plasma is crucial for determining the structures of the heliosphere. Since both the neutral-ion and neu…

The Twist of the Draped Interstellar Magnetic Field Ahead of the Heliopause: A Magnetic Reconnection Driven Rotational Discontinuity

M. Opher, J. F. Drake, M. Swisdak +2

Based on the difference between the orientation of the interstellar and the solar magnetic fields, there was an expectation that the magnetic field direction would rotate…

Magnetized jets driven by the sun: the structure of the heliosphere revisited

M. Opher, J. F. Drake, B. Zieger +1

The classic accepted view of the heliosphere is a quiescent, comet-like shape aligned in the direction of the Sun's travel through the interstellar medium (ISM) extending for 1000'…

Simulating the long-term evolution of radiative shocks in shock tubes

B. van der Holst, G. Toth, I. V. Sokolov +3

We present the latest improvements in the Center for Radiative Shock Hydrodynamics (CRASH) code, a parallel block-adaptive-mesh Eulerian code for simulating high-energy-density pla…

Crash: A Block-Adaptive-Mesh Code for Radiative Shock Hydrodynamics - Implementation and Verification

B. van der Holst, G. Toth, I. V. Sokolov +7

We describe the CRASH (Center for Radiative Shock Hydrodynamics) code, a block adaptive mesh code for multi-material radiation hydrodynamics. The implementation solves the radiatio…

The Orientation of the Local Interstellar Magnetic Field

M. Opher, E. C. Stone, T. I. Gombosi

The orientation of the local interstellar magnetic field introduces asymmetries in the heliosphere that affect the location of heliospheric radio emissions and the streaming direct…
