Electron Heat Flux and Whistler Instability in the Earth's Magnetosheath
Ida Svenningsson, Emiliya Yordanova, Yuri V. Khotyaintsev +4
Despite heat flux's role in regulating energy conversion in collisionless plasmas, its properties and evolution in the magnetosheath downstream of the Earth's bow shock are scarcel…

Non-Maxwellianity of Ion Velocity Distributions in the Earth's Magnetosheath
Louis Richard, Sergio Servidio, Ida Svenningsson +6
We analyze the deviations from local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) of the ion velocity distribution function (iVDF) in collisionless plasma turbulence. Using data from the Magnet…
