Cross-scale energy transfer from fluid-scale Alfvén waves to kinetic-scale ion acoustic waves in the Earth's magnetopause boundary layer
Xin An, Anton Artemyev, Vassilis Angelopoulos +3
In space plasmas, large-amplitude Alfvén waves can drive compressive perturbations, accelerate ion beams, and lead to plasma heating and the excitation of ion acoustic waves at kin…

Magnetosheath ion field-aligned anisotropy and implications for ion leakage to the foreshock
Terry Zixu Liu, Vassilis Angelopoulos, Hui Zhang +2
The ion foreshock is highly dynamic, disturbing the bow shock and the magnetosphere-ionosphere system. To forecast foreshock-driven space weather effects, it is necessary to model…
