Spacecraft wakes in the solar wind
Anders I. Eriksson, Yuri Khotyaintsev, Per-Arne Lindqvist
The solar wind flow creates a wake behind any spacecraft immersed in it. We study the properties of this wake using the spherical electrostatic probes of the Electric Fields and Wa…
Occurrence of Non-Stationarity at Earth's Quasi-Perpendicular Bow Shock
Ajay Lotekar, Yuri V. Khotyaintsev, Daniel B. Graham +3
Collisionless shocks can exhibit non-stationary behavior even under steady upstream conditions, forming a complex transition region. Ion phase-space holes, linked to shock self-ref…
Electron Acceleration via Trapping inside Ion Mirror-mode Structures within A Large-scale Magnetic Flux Rope
Z. H. Zhong, H. Zhang, M. Zhou +4
Fermi acceleration is believed as a crucial process for the acceleration of energetic electrons within flux ropes (FRs) during magnetic reconnection. However, in finite-length FRs…
Debye-scale electrostatic waves across quasi-perpendicular shocks
Ahmad Lalti, Yuri V. Khotyaintsev, Daniel B. Graham +1
The evolution of the properties of short-scale electrostatic waves across collisionless shocks remains an open question. We use a method based on the interferometry of the electric…
Electron Heating by Parallel Electric Fields in Magnetotail Reconnection
Louis Richard, Yuri V. Khotyaintsev, Cecilia Norgren +5
We investigate electron heating by magnetic-field-aligned electric fields () during anti-parallel magnetic reconnection in the Earth's magnetotail. Using a statistical…
Electron-scale energy transfer due to lower hybrid waves during asymmetric reconnection
Sabrina F. Tigik, Daniel B. Graham, Yuri V. Khotyaintsev
We use Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission data to investigate electron-scale energy transfer due to lower hybrid drift waves during magnetopause reconnection. We analyze waves…
