Three-wave interactions of dispersive plasma waves propagating parallel to the magnetic field

F. Spanier, R. Vainio

Three-wave interactions of plasma waves propagating parallel to the mean magnetic field at frequencies below the electron cyclotron frequency are considered. We consider Alfvén--io…

CME liftoff with high-frequency fragmented type II burst emission

S. Pohjolainen, J. Pomoell, R. Vainio

Aims: Solar radio type II bursts are rarely seen at frequencies higher than a few hundred MHz. Since metric type II bursts are thought to be signatures of propagating shock waves,…

Turbulence transmission in parallel modified shocks using ray tracing

Joni Tammi, Rami Vainio

We apply a semi-classical approach of handling waves as quasiparticle gas in a slowly varying flow -- analogous to ray tracing -- to calculate the Alfven wave transmission paramete…

Particle acceleration in thick parallel shocks with high compression ratio

Joni J. P. Virtanen, Rami Vainio

We report studies on first-order Fermi acceleration in parallel modified shock waves with a large scattering center compression ratio expected from turbulence transmission models.…

Stochastic Particle Acceleration in Parallel Relativistic Shocks

Joni J. P. Virtanen, Rami Vainio

We present results of test-particle simulations on both the first- and the second-order Fermi acceleration for relativistic parallel shock waves. Our studies suggest that the role…

Stochastic Acceleration in Relativistic Parallel Shocks

Joni J. P. Virtanen, Rami Vainio

(abridged) We present results of test-particle simulations on both the first and the second order Fermi acceleration at relativistic parallel shock waves. We consider two scenarios…
