Local acceleration of protons to 100 keV in a quasi-parallel bow shock
Krzysztof Stasiewicz, Bengt Eliasson, Ian J. Cohen +2
Recent observations in the quasi-parallel bow shock by the MMS spacecraft show rapid heating and acceleration of ions up to an energy of about 100 keV. It is demonstrated that a pr…
Ion acceleration to MeV by the ExB wave mechanism in collisionless shocks
Krzysztof Stasiewicz, Bengt Eliasson
It is shown that ions can be accelerated to MeV energy range in the direction perpendicular to the magnetic field by the ExB mechanism of electrostatic waves. The acceleration occu…
Stochastic and quasi-adiabatic electron heating in quasi-parallel shocks
Krzysztof Stasiewicz, Bengt Eliasson
Using Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) observations at the Earth's quasi-parallel bow shock we demonstrate that electrons are heated by two different mechanisms: a quasi-adiabatic h…
Quasi-adiabatic and stochastic heating and particle acceleration at quasi-perpendicular shocks
Krzysztof Stasiewicz, Bengt Eliasson
Based on Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) observations from the Earth's bow shock, we have identified two plasma heating processes that operate at quasi-perpendicular shocks. Ions a…
Stochastic ion and electron heating on drift instabilities at the bow shock
Krzysztof Stasiewicz
The analysis of the wave content inside a perpendicular bow shock indicates that heating of ions is related to the Lower-Hybrid-Drift (LHD) instability, and heating of electrons to…
Multidimensional Hall magnetohydrodynamics with isotropic or anisotropic thermal pressure: numerical scheme and its validation using solitary waves
Marek Strumik, Krzysztof Stasiewicz
We present a numerical solver for plasma dynamics simulations in Hall magnetohydrodynamic (HMHD) approximation in one, two and three dimensions. We consider both isotropic and anis…
