On the Energy Dependence of Galactic Cosmic Ray Anisotropies in the Very Local Interstellar Medium

Romina Nikoukar, Matthew E. Hill, Lawrence Brown +11

We report on the energy dependence of galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) in the very local interstellar medium (VLISM) as measured by the Low Energy Charged Particle (LECP) instrument on…

PSP/ISIS Observation of a Solar Energetic Particle Event Associated With a Streamer Blowout Coronal Mass Ejection During Encounter 6

T. Getachew, D. J. McComas, C. J. Joyce +21

In this paper we examine a low-energy SEP event observed by ISIS's Energetic Particle Instrument-Low (EPI-Lo) inside 0.18 AU on September 30, 2020. This small SEP event has…

Suprathermal Ion Energy spectra and Anisotropies near the Heliospheric Current Sheet crossing observed by the Parker Solar Probe during Encounter 7

M. I. Desai, D. G. Mitchell, D. J. McComas +31

We present observations of >10-100 keV/nucleon suprathermal (ST) H, He, O, and Fe ions associated with crossings of the heliospheric current sheet (HCS) at radial distances <0.1 au…

Parker Solar Probe Observations of Helical Structures as Boundaries for Energetic Particles

F. Pecora, S. Servidio, A. Greco +15

Energetic particle transport in the interplanetary medium is known to be affected by magnetic structures. It has been demonstrated for solar energetic particles in near-Earth orbit…

Cometary ions detected by the Cassini spacecraft 6.5 au downstream of Comet 153P/Ikeya-Zhang

Geraint H. Jones, Heather A. Elliott, David J. McComas +5

During March-April 2002, while between the orbits of Jupiter and Saturn, the Cassini spacecraft detected a significant enhancement in pickup proton flux. The most likely explanatio…

Initial results from the New Horizons exploration of 2014 MU69, a small Kuiper Belt Object

S. A. Stern, H. A. Weaver, J. R. Spencer +202

The Kuiper Belt is a distant region of the Solar System. On 1 January 2019, the New Horizons spacecraft flew close to (486958) 2014 MU69, a Cold Classical Kuiper Belt Object, a cla…
