Intermittency in Voyager Magnetic Field Beyond the Heliosphere
L. Y. Khoo, G. Livadiotis, D. J. McComas +2
As the two Voyager spacecraft traveled beyond the heliosphere, they encountered a magnetic field environment that had never been observed before. Studies have attempted to characte…
Transfer of Entropy between the Magnetic Field and Solar Energetic Particles during an Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejection
M. E. Cuesta, G. Livadiotis, D. J. McComas +4
Thermodynamics of solar wind bulk plasma have been routinely measured and quantified, unlike those of solar energetic particles (SEPs), whose thermodynamic properties have remained…
High-Resolution Observations of Pickup Ion Mediated Shocks to 60 au
Bishwas L. Shrestha, David J. McComas, Eric J. Zirnstein +10
This study provides a detailed analysis of fourteen distant interplanetary shocks observed by the Solar Wind Around Pluto (SWAP) instrument onboard New Horizons. These shocks were…
What defines stationarity in space plasmas
George Livadiotis, David J. McComas
Starting from the concept of entropy defect in thermodynamics, we construct the entropy formulation of space plasmas, and then use it to develop a measure of their stationarity. In…
Polytropic Behavior in Corotating Interaction Regions: Evidence of Alfvénic Heating
M. A. Dayeh, M. J. Starkey, G. Livadiotis +5
Corotating Interaction Regions (CIRs) are recurring structures in the solar wind, characterized by interactions between fast and slow solar wind streams that compress and heat plas…
Comparing Methods for Calculating Solar Energetic Particle Intensities: Re-binning versus Spectral Binning
M. E. Cuesta, L. Y. Khoo, G. Livadiotis +13
Solar energetic particle (SEP) events have been observed for decades in the interplanetary medium by spacecraft measuring the intensity of energetic ions and electrons. These inten…
