A Field-Particle Correlation Analysis of a Perpendicular Magnetized Collisionless Shock

James Juno, Gregory G. Howes, Jason M. TenBarge +5

Using the field-particle correlation technique, we examine the particle energization in a 1D-2V continuum Vlasov--Maxwell simulation of a perpendicular magnetized collisionless sho…

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…

Electron heat flux in the near-Sun environment

J. S. Halekas, P. L. Whittlesey, D. E. Larson +15

We survey the electron heat flux observed by the Parker Solar Probe (PSP) in the near-Sun environment at heliocentric distances of 0.125-0.25 AU. We utilized measurements from the…

Detection of small magnetic flux ropes from the third and fourth Parker Solar Probe encounters

L. -L. Zhao, G. P. Zank, Q. Hu +22

We systematically search for magnetic flux rope structures in the solar wind to within the closest distance to the Sun of 0.13 AU, using data from the third and fourth orbits of th…

Proton Core Behaviour Inside Magnetic Field Switchbacks

Thomas Woolley, Lorenzo Matteini, Timothy S. Horbury +10

During Parker Solar Probe's first two orbits there are widespread observations of rapid magnetic field reversals known as switchbacks. These switchbacks are extensively found in th…

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…

Diagnosing collisionless energy transfer using field-particle correlations: Alfven-Ion Cyclotron Turbulence

Kristopher G. Klein, Gregory G. Howes, Jason M. TenBarge +1

We apply field-particle correlations -- a technique that tracks the time-averaged velocity-space structure of the energy density transfer rate between electromagnetic fields and pl…

Dependence of kinetic plasma waves on ion-to-electron mass ratio and light-to-Alfvén speed ratio

Daniel Verscharen, Tulasi N. Parashar, S. Peter Gary +1

The magnetization is an important parameter in plasma astrophysics, where and are the electron gyro-frequency and…

Ion versus electron heating in compressively driven astrophysical gyrokinetic turbulence

Y. Kawazura, A. A. Schekochihin, M. Barnes +4

The partition of irreversible heating between ions and electrons in compressively driven (but subsonic) collisionless turbulence is investigated by means of nonlinear hybrid gyroki…

The Solar Probe ANalyzers -- Electrons on Parker Solar Probe

Phyllis L Whittlesey, Davin E Larson, Justin C Kasper +19

Electrostatic analyzers of different designs have been used since the earliest days of the space age, beginning with the very earliest solar wind measurements made by Mariner 2 en…
