Turbulence Driving by Interstellar Pickup Ions in the Outer Solar Wind

Philip A. Isenberg, Bernard J. Vasquez, Charles W. Smith

We revisit the question of how the unstable scattering of interstellar pickup ions (PUIs) may drive turbulence in the outer solar wind, and why the energy released into fluctuation…

Turbulence in the outer heliosphere

Federico Fraternale, Laxman Adhikari, Horst Fichtner +9

The solar wind (SW) and local interstellar medium (LISM) are turbulent media. Their interaction is governed by complex physical processes and creates heliospheric regions with sign…

Variations of Pickup Ion Distributions and their Relation to Interplanetary Conditions and Waves

Lukas Saul, Eberhard Moebius, Charles W. Smith

Pickup ion distributions vary substantially on a variety of time scales, although their sources may be relatively steady. This complicates their use as probes of the heliospheric a…

Observational Evidence of Pitch Angle Isotropization by IMF Waves

L. Saul, E. Moebius, C. W. Smith +4

A statistical analysis of interstellar He+ pickup ion measurements from SOHO/CTOF combined with magnetic field data from WIND/MFI enable quantitative study of wave-particle interac…

Contribution of cyclotron-resonant damping to kinetic dissipation of interplanetary turbulence

Robert J. Leamon, William H. Matthaeus, Charles W. Smith +1

We examine some implications of inertial range and dissipation range correlation and spectral analyses extracted from 33 intervals of Wind magnetic field data. When field polarity…
