Thermodynamics of the inner heliosheath
G. Livadiotis, D. J. McComas, H. O. Funsten +3
We derive annual skymaps of the proton temperature in the inner heliosheath (IHS), and track their temporal evolution over the years from 2009 to 2016 of Interstellar Boundary Expl…
Parker Solar Probe Observations of Helical Structures as Boundaries for Energetic Particles
F. Pecora, S. Servidio, A. Greco +15
Energetic particle transport in the interplanetary medium is known to be affected by magnetic structures. It has been demonstrated for solar energetic particles in near-Earth orbit…
Slowdown and Heating of Interstellar Neutral Helium by Elastic Collisions Beyond the Heliopause
P. Swaczyna, F. Rahmanifard, E. J. Zirnstein +2
Direct sampling of interstellar neutral (ISN) atoms close to the Sun enables studies of the very local interstellar medium (VLISM) around the heliosphere. The primary population of…
Switchbacks Explained: Super-Parker Fields -- the Other Side of the Sub-Parker Spiral
N. A. Schwadron, D. J. McComas
We provide a simple geometric explanation for the source of switchbacks and associated large and one-sided transverse flows in the solar wind observed by Parker Solar Probe. The mo…
Magnetic Field Line Random Walk and Solar Energetic Particle Path Lengths: Stochastic Theory and PSP/ISoIS Observation
R. Chhiber, W. H. Matthaeus, C. M. S. Cohen +21
Context:In 2020 May-June, six solar energetic ion events were observed by the Parker Solar Probe/ISoIS instrument suite at 0.35 AU from the Sun. From standard velocity-dispersion a…
Observations of the 2019 April 4 Solar Energetic Particle Event at the Parker Solar Probe
R. A. Leske, E. R. Christian, C. M. S. Cohen +33
A solar energetic particle event was detected by the Integrated Science Investigation of the Sun (ISOIS) instrument suite on Parker Solar Probe (PSP) on 2019 April 4 when the space…
