Energetic particles in space

Solar Physics, 1980
Particles ranging in energy from just above solar wind, ≳1 keV, to galactic cosmic rays of many GeV or greater are observed to be always present in the interplanetary medium. These suprathermal particles appear to come from many different sources: among them the galaxy and nearby interstellar medium, the Sun, planetary magnetospheres and bow shock ...

Heliospheric energetic particle variations

2007
As observed from the ecliptic plane and at a distance of 1 AU from the Sun, the energetic particle population of the heliosphere drastically changes from solar maximum to solar minimum. The energetic particle populations in the inner heliosphere include: (1) Galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) originated in the interstellar medium and able to penetrate ...

PKU Energetic Particle Instrument

2020
<p>The PKU energetic particle instrument (EPI) is designed to make measurements of the three-dimensional distribution of suprathermal electrons and ions with good time, energy and angular resolutions in the interplanetary space, respectively, at energies from 20 keV to 1 MeV and from 20 keV to 11 MeV.  The EPI ...

Energetic Particles Investigation (EPI)

Space Science Reviews, 1992
The Energetic Particles Investigation (EPI) instrument operates during the pre-entry phase of the Galileo Probe. The major science objective is to study the energetic particle population in the innermost regions of the Jovian magnetosphere — within 4 radii of the cloud tops — and into the upper atmosphere. To achieve these objectives the EPI instrument

Acceleration of Energetic Particles

2013
Acceleration of some particles from the background plasma to highly superthermal energies is a common feature of collisionless shocks in interplanetary space. The complete in situ measurements of bulk flows, thermal plasma, electromagnetic waves and energetic particles available for interplanetary shocks both suggest and test the models of shock ...

Energetic Particles in the Jovian Magnetotail

Science, 2007
When the solar wind hits Jupiter's magnetic field, it creates a long magnetotail trailing behind the planet that channels material out of the Jupiter system. The New Horizons spacecraft traversed the length of the jovian magnetotail to >2500 jovian radii ( R J ; 1 R J

Energetic particle physics

Nuclear Fusion
We review the physics of energetic particles (EPs) in magnetically confined burning fusion plasmas with focus on advances since the last update of the ITER Physics Basis (Fasoli et al 2007 Nucl. Fusion 47 S264). Topics include basic EP physics, EP generation, diagnostics of EPs and instabilities, the interaction of EPs and thermal plasma instabilities,

Energetic Particles at Venus: Galileo Results

Science, 1991
At Venus the Energetic Particles Detector (EPD) on the Galileo spacecraft measured the differential energy spectra and angular distributions of ions ≳ 22 kiloelectron volts (keV) and electrons ≳ 15 keV in energy. The only time particles were observed by EPD was in a series of episodic events [∼0546 to 0638 universal time (UT)] near closest approach ...

Solar Energetic Particle Studies

1983
As against the discussions of the galactic cosmic ray that we have had so far, we shall discuss the other component of cosmic rays namely the solar cosmic rays.
