Using Chandra ACIS-S, we have obtained imaging Xray spectrophotometry of the Pluto system in support of the New Horizons flyby on 14 July 2015. 174 ksec of observations were obtain…
Long-Term Trends In The Solar Wind Proton Measurements
Heather A. Elliott, David J. McComas, Craig E. DeForest
We examine the long-term time evolution (1965-2015) of the relationships between solar wind proton temperature (Tp) and speed (Vp) and between the proton density (np) and speed usi…
Modeling the Solar Wind at the Ulysses, Voyager, and New Horizons Spacecraft
T. K. Kim, N. V. Pogorelov, G. P. Zank +2
The outer heliosphere is a dynamic region shaped largely by the interaction between the solar wind and the interstellar medium. While interplanetary magnetic field and plasma obser…
Plutos interaction with its space environment: Solar Wind, Energetic Particles & Dust
F. Bagenal, M. Horányi, D. J. McComas +23
The New Horizons spacecraft carried three instruments that measured the space environment near Pluto as it flew by on 14 July 2015. The Solar Wind Around Pluto instrument revealed…
New Horizons Solar Wind Around Pluto (SWAP) Observations of the Solar Wind From 11-33 AU
H. A. Elliott, D. J. McComas, P. Valek +3
The Solar Wind Around Pluto (SWAP) instrument on NASA's New Horizon Pluto mission has collected solar wind observations en route from Earth to Pluto, and these observations continu…
