The Effects of Non-Equilibrium Velocity Distributions on Alfvén Ion-Cyclotron Waves in the Solar Wind
Jada Walters, Kristopher G. Klein, Emily Lichko +3
In this work, we investigate how the complex structure found in solar wind proton velocity distribution functions (VDFs), rather than the commonly assumed two-component bi-Maxwelli…
HelioSwarm: A Multipoint, Multiscale Mission to Characterize Turbulence
Kristopher G. Klein, Harlan Spence, Olga Alexandrova +47
HelioSwarm (HS) is a NASA Medium-Class Explorer mission of the Heliophysics Division designed to explore the dynamic three-dimensional mechanisms controlling the physics of plasma…
Ion-Driven Instabilities in the Inner Heliosphere II: Classification and Multi-Dimensional Mapping
Mihailo M. Martinovic, Kristopher G. Klein
Linear theory is a well developed framework for characterizing instabilities in weakly collisional plasmas, such as the solar wind. In the previous instalment of this series, we an…
Quantifying the Energy Budget in the Solar Wind from 13.3-100 Solar Radii
J. S. Halekas, S. D. Bale, M. Berthomier +10
A variety of energy sources, ranging from dynamic processes like magnetic reconnection and waves to quasi-steady terms like the plasma pressure, may contribute to the acceleration…
