STEREO REleASE+: Adding Robustness to Solar Proton Event Forecasting in the Heliosphere by Means of Automated Recognition of Type‐III Radio Bursts

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract This work reports on the real‐time implementation of a local solar proton event forecasting system at the Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory—Ahead (STEREO‐A) spacecraft, namely STEREO REleASE+. The forecasting uses the finding that relativistic electrons provide the “earliest indication” that a solar particle event has started, arriving ...

Warm Breeze from the starboard bow: a new population of neutral helium in the heliosphere

open access: yes, 2014
We investigate the signals from neutral He atoms observed from Earth orbit in 2010 by IBEX. The full He signal observed during the 2010 observation season can be explained as a superposition of pristine neutral interstellar He gas and an additional ...

Solving the Mystery of the Electron Radiation Belt at Uranus: Leveraging Knowledge of Earth's Radiation Belts in a Re‐Examination of Voyager 2 Observations

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 22, 28 November 2025.
Abstract Voyager 2 provided the only direct measurement of the radiation environment at Uranus and established the well‐accepted characterization of a system with a weaker ion radiation belt and surprisingly intense electron radiation belt. Recent re‐analysis of the flyby, however, suggests that these observations were not taken during normal solar ...

Periodic Response of Plasmasphere to Solar Wind High‐Speed Streams

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 21, 16 November 2025.
Abstract We report the first observation of the plasmasphere's periodic response to solar wind high‐speed streams (HSS) during the declining phase of Solar Cycle 23, based on plasmapause location data from the IMAGE and THEMIS satellites. In both 2005 and 2008, the daily variability of the plasmapause exhibits a strong anti‐correlation with solar wind ...

Interstellar Dust in the Solar System: Model versus In-Situ Spacecraft Data

open access: yes, 2019
In the early 1990s, contemporary interstellar dust penetrating deep into the heliosphere was identified with the in-situ dust detector on board the Ulysses spacecraft.

Boundary conditions of the heliosphere [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2003
Radiative transfer equilibrium models of nearby interstellar matter (ISM) are required to determine the boundary conditions of the heliosphere from astronomical observations of nearby stars. These models are also constrained by data on the ISM inside of the solar system, including pickup ion, anomalous cosmic rays, and in situ Heo data.

Exploring the Validation Results of the Advanced Solar Particle Events Casting System (ASPECS)

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 23, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Solar Energetic Particle (SEP) events can adversely affect space and ground‐based systems. Space weather effects associated with SEP events can impact communication and navigation systems, spacecraft electronics and operations, space power systems, crewed space missions, and commercial aircraft operations.

Collisional thermalization of minor ions in the solar wind

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
IntroductionAs the solar wind transits through the heliosphere, Coulomb collisions among constituent particles drives it toward local thermodynamic equilibrium. Prior studies of ion collisions in the solar wind have focused on the two most abundant solar

Effect of Supernovae on the Local Interstellar Material

open access: yes, 2017
A range of astronomical data indicates that ancient supernovae created the galactic environment of the Sun and sculpted the physical properties of the interstellar medium near the heliosphere.

Cosmic Ray Counting Variability From Water‐Cherenkov Detectors as a Proxy of Stratospheric Conditions in Antarctica

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract This work examines atmospheric effects on cosmic ray counts observed by a Water‐Cherenkov detector at the Argentine Antarctic Marambio Station. We analyze the influence of ground‐level barometric pressure and geopotential height at various pressure levels on daily particle rates, finding the strongest association at 100 hPa, linked to ...
