Global Impacts of Ultra‐Low‐Frequency Waves: 1. Thermospheric Responses and Traveling Atmospheric Disturbances

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract Ultra‐low‐frequency (ULF) waves cause local Thermosphere‐Ionosphere (T‐I) perturbations, but their impacts on the global T‐I system including the generation of Traveling Atmospheric Disturbances (TADs) have never been evaluated. The mechanisms responsible for the TAD generation and propagation, whether through dynamic or thermal process, are ...

Poloidal Field Line Resonances Driven by a Fast Wave

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
We present numerical simulations of the excitation of resonant poloidal Alfvén waves. The resulting Alfvén waves could be loosely described as “high‐m” (m is the azimuthal wave number) in as much as the azimuthal scale of the wave is much less than the ...

Exploring the Impact of Self-Excited Alfvén Waves on Transonic Winds: Applications in Galactic Outflows

open access: yesUniverse
The impact of cosmic rays is crucial to understand the energetic plasma outflows coming out from the Galactic centers against the strong gravitational potential well.

Europa is Embedded in Non‐Maxwellian, Anisotropic Electron Distributions

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract In September 2022, the Juno spacecraft flew by Europa, providing new insight into the electron pitch angle and energy distributions via the Jovian Auroral Distributions Experiment electron analyzers (JADE‐E). We fit these observations with two anisotropic kappa distributions (cold and hot), accounting for spacecraft potential, which we find to

Prevalence of Small-scale Jets from the Networks of the Solar Transition Region and Chromosphere

open access: yes, 2014
As the interface between the Sun's photosphere and corona, the chromosphere and transition region play a key role in the formation and acceleration of the solar wind.

Short‐Term Variability of Jupiter's Satellite Footprints as Spotted by JWST

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract We present the main Alfvén wing (MAW) spots of Io and Europa as observed by the Near‐Infrared Spectrograph onboard the James Webb Space Telescope. These auroral footprint features have been measured previously, but only in emission. Here, the derived ionospheric H3+ ${\mathrm{H}}_{3}^{+}$ emission, temperature and column density are reported ...

Non-resonant Alfv\'enic instability activated by high temperature of ion beams in compensated-current astrophysical plasmas

open access: yes, 2018
Context: Compensated-current systems are established in response to hot ion beams in terrestrial foreshock regions, around supernova remnants, and in other space and astrophysical plasmas.

The Energy Content of Alfvén Waves in the Stratified Solar Atmosphere

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Alfvén waves propagating in a vertically stratified plasma, such as those traveling from the solar photosphere to the corona, are partially reflected due to the gradient in the Alfvén speed.

Transverse waves in coronal flux tubes with thick boundaries: The effect of longitudinal flows

open access: yes, 2019
Observations show that transverse magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves and flows are often simultaneously present in magnetic loops of the solar corona.

On the Correlation between Alfvén Waves and Auroral Radio Emissions in the Jovian System

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Jupiter’s powerful aurorae reflect intense energy dissipation in the magnetosphere–ionosphere system. Recent studies reveal that solar wind compression systematically enhances auroral emission, while the mechanism is not yet fully understood.
