Constraints on the Alfvénicity of Switchbacks
O. V. Agapitov, J. F. Drake, M. Swisdak +2
Switchbacks (SBs) are localized structures in the solar wind containing deflections of the magnetic field direction relative to the background solar wind magnetic field. The amplit…
Wave Generation by Flare-Accelerated Ions and Implications for 3He Acceleration
A. Fitzmaurice, J. F. Drake, M. Swisdak
The waves generated by high-energy proton and alpha particles streaming from solar flares into regions of colder plasma are explored using particle-in-cell simulations. Initial dis…
Wave generation and energetic electron scattering in solar flares
Hanqing Ma, James F. Drake, Marc Swisdak
We conduct two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations to investigate the scattering of electron heat flux by self-generated oblique electromagnetic waves. The heat flux is modele…
Advanced methods for analyzing in-situ observations of magnetic reconnection
H. Hasegawa, M. R. Argall, N. Aunai +33
There is ample evidence for magnetic reconnection in the solar system, but it is a nontrivial task to visualize, to determine the proper approaches and frames to study, and in turn…
The Role of Magnetic Shear in Reconnection-Driven Flare Energy Release
J. Qiu, M. Alaoui, S. K. Antiochos +6
Using observations from the Solar Dynamics Observatory's Atmosphere Imaging Assembly and the Ramaty High Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager, we present novel measurements of the she…
Development of a structured, turbulent solar wind as a result of interchange reconnection
J. F. Drake, S. D. Bale, M. Swisdak +2
The role of interchange reconnection as a drive mechanism for the solar wind is explored by solving the global magnetic-field-aligned equations describing wind acceleration. Bounda…
