Structural heterogeneity in the megathrust zone and mechanism of the 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake (Mw 9.0) [PDF]
, 2011 The great 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake (Mw 9.0) and its 339 foreshocks and 5,609 aftershocks (9–27 March 2011) were relocated using a three-dimensional seismic velocity model and local P and S wave arrival times.

Extension of Gutenberg-Richter Distribution to Mw -1.3, No Lower Limit in Sight [PDF]
, 2009 With twelve years of seismic data from TauTona Gold Mine, South Africa, we show that mining-induced earthquakes follow the Gutenberg-Richter relation with no scale break down to the completeness level of the catalog, at moment magnitude MW −1.3.

Planetary foreshock radio emissions [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2005 The electron foreshock regions upstream of Earth's bow shock and upstream of traveling interplanetary shocks are known to be propitious sites for a variety of energetic particle and plasma wave phenomena, including radio emissions. A quantitative theoretical model has been developed for radio emissions associated with the terrestrial foreshock and for ...

Unusual Martian Foreshock Waves Triggered by a Solar Wind Stream Interaction Region
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 Planetary bow shocks noncollisionally dissipate the incident bulk flow energy of solar wind into some other forms. To what extent and how solar wind disturbances affect the energy dissipation processes at the bow shocks on different planets remain ...

Characteristics of Foreshock Subsolar Compressive Structures
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2023 AbstractThe turbulent foreshock region upstream of the quasi‐parallel bow shock is dominated by waves and reflected particles that interact with each other and create a large number of different foreshock transients. The structures with the enhanced magnetic field, Short Large Amplitude Magnetic Structures, and density spikes named plasmoids are ...

Oblique propagation and temperature effects on the resonant right-hand ion beam instability
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023 The resonant right-hand instability (RHI) is often the dominant mode driven by reflected ions upstream of Earth’s quasi-parallel bow shock. In the tradition of Peter Gary, this paper further explores the right-hand instability using numerical solutions ...

Relativistic electrons generated at Earth's quasi-parallel bow shock. [PDF]
, 2019 Plasma shocks are the primary means of accelerating electrons in planetary and astrophysical settings throughout the universe. Which category of shocks, quasi-perpendicular or quasi-parallel, accelerates electrons more efficiently is debated.

Large Scale Earth's Bow Shock with Northern IMF as simulated by PIC code in parallel with MHD model
, 2016 In this paper, we propose a 3D kinetic model (Particle-in-Cell PIC ) for the description of the large scale Earth's bow shock. The proposed version is stable and does not require huge or extensive computer resources.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.Abstract Unraveling the surface deformation and fault kinematics during the seismic cycle is crucial for understanding earthquake physics. Herein, we use geodetic and seismic observations to quantify the interseismic coupling, coseismic rupture, and postseismic afterslip associated with the 2025 Mw 8.8 Kamchatka earthquake.
