Sub-Alfvenic Solar Wind observed by PSP: Characterization of Turbulence, Anisotropy, Intermittency, and Switchback
R. Bandyopadhyay, W. H. Matthaeus, D. J. McComas +18
In the lower solar coronal regions where the magnetic field is dominant, the Alfven speed is much higher than the wind speed. In contrast, the near-Earth solar wind is strongly sup…
Wave-particle energy transfer directly observed in an ion cyclotron wave
Daniel Vech, Mihailo M. Martinovic, Kristopher G. Klein +21
Context. The first studies with Parker Solar Probe (PSP) data have made significant progress toward the understanding of the fundamental properties of ion cyclotron waves in the in…
Small-scale Magnetic Flux Ropes in the First two Parker Solar Probe Encounters
Yu Chen, Qiang Hu, Lingling Zhao +15
Small-scale magnetic flux ropes (SFRs) are a type of structures in the solar wind that possess helical magnetic field lines. In a recent report (Chen & Hu 2020), we presented the r…
Dust impact voltage signatures on Parker Solar Probe: influence of spacecraft floating potential
S. D. Bale, K. Goetz, J. W. Bonnell +15
When a fast dust particle hits a spacecraft, it generates a cloud of plasma some of which escapes into space and the momentary charge imbalance perturbs the spacecraft voltage with…
Parker Solar Probe observations of proton beams simultaneous with ion-scale waves
J. L. Verniero, D. E. Larson, R. Livi +19
Parker Solar Probe (PSP), NASA's latest and closest mission to the Sun, is on a journey to investigate fundamental enigmas of the inner heliosphere. This paper reports initial obse…
The Radial Dependence of Proton-scale Magnetic Spectral Break in Slow Solar Wind during PSP Encounter 2
Die Duan, Trevor A. Bowen, Christopher H. K. Chen +18
Magnetic field fluctuations in the solar wind are commonly observed to follow a power law spectrum. Near proton-kinetic scales, a spectral break occurs which is commonly interprete…
