Firehose instabilities triggered by the solar wind suprathermal electrons

S. M. Shaaban, M. Lazar, R. A. Lopez +2

In collision-poor plasmas from space, e.g., solar wind, terrestrial magnetospheres, kinetic instabilities are expected to play a major role in constraining the temperature anisotro…

On the entropy of plasmas described with regularized -distributions

H. Fichtner, K. Scherer, M. Lazar +2

In classical thermodynamics the entropy is an extensive quantity, i.e.\ the sum of the entropies of two subsystems in equilibrium with each other is equal to the entropy of the ful…

The interaction of multiple stellar winds in stellar clusters: potential flow

Klaus Scherer, Alexander Noack, Jens Kleimann +2

While several studies have investigated large-scale cluster winds resulting from an intra-cluster interaction of multiple stellar winds, as yet they have not provided details of th…

On Aspects Pertaining to the Perpendicular Diffusion of Solar Energetic Particles

R. D. Strauss, H. Fichtner

The multitude of recent multi-point spacecraft observations of solar energetic particle (SEP) events have made it possible to study the longitudinal distribution of SEPs in great d…

Regularized -distributions with non-diverging moments

K. Scherer, H. Fichtner, M. Lazar

For various plasma applications the so-called (non-relativistic) -distribution is widely used to reproduce and interpret the suprathermal particle populations exhibiting a power…

Uncertainties in the heliosheath ion temperatures

Klaus Scherer, Hans Jörg Fahr, Horst Fichtner +3

The Voyager plasma observations show that the physics of the heliosheath is rather complex, and especially that the temperature derived from observation differs from expectations.…
