Temperature anisotropy instabilities driven by intermittent velocity shears in the solar wind
Simon Opie, Daniel Verscharen, Christopher H. K. Chen +5
Where and under what conditions the transfer of energy between electromagnetic fields and particles takes place in the solar wind remains an open question. We investigate the condi…
The effect of variations in magnetic field direction from turbulence on kinetic-scale instabilities
Simon Opie, Daniel Verscharen, Christopher H. K. Chen +2
At kinetic scales in the solar wind, instabilities transfer energy from particles to fluctuations in the electromagnetic fields while restoring plasma conditions towards thermodyna…
Conditions for proton temperature anisotropy to drive instabilities in the solar wind
Simon Opie, Daniel Verscharen, Christopher H. K. Chen +2
Using high-resolution data from Solar Orbiter, we investigate the plasma conditions necessary for the proton temperature anisotropy driven mirror-mode and oblique firehose instabil…
