On the Role of Electron Precipitation in Excess Radiation Doses Measured at Aviation Altitudes
Abstract Radiation from space in the form of galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) generates a persistent background of ionizing radiation in Earth's atmosphere. The dose rate of ionizing radiation due to GCRs increases from sea level to aviation altitudes.

Heliospheric conditions that affect the interstellar gas inside the heliosphere [PDF]
The interstellar gas that flows through the heliosphere is strongly affected by ionization close to the Sun, in particular solar photoionization, electron impact, and charge exchange. Therefore, the interpretation of any observation of interstellar gas in the inner heliosphere hinges upon the accurate knowledge of these effects and their variations. In

The Heliosphere through the Solar Activity Cycle
Understanding how the Sun changes though its 11-year sunspot cycle and how these changes affect the vast space around the Sun – the heliosphere – has been one of the principal objectives of space research since the advent of the space age.

Investigating Potential Benefits of Future Sub‐L1 Missions With STEREO‐A
Abstract We present the first statistical study of geomagnetic storm forecasting using in situ data from the STEREO‐A spacecraft as a sub‐L1 monitor. Between November 2022 and June 2024, STEREO‐A crossed the Sun–Earth line, covering longitudinal and radial separations of ±15° $\pm 15{}^{\circ}$ from the Sun–Earth line and 0.01–0.06 au from Earth.

Abstract The Kelvin‐Helmholtz instability (KHI) mediates the viscous‐like solar‐terrestrial interaction by generating magnetopause surface waves that quickly become non‐linear. Basic theory predicts the locally most‐unstable linear wave dominates.

Residual modulation of galactic cosmic rays in the heliosphere [PDF]
Residual modulation of galactic cosmic rays in the heliosphere and its energy dependence are studied with data from three types of ground-based detectors, using data from PAMELA, AMS-02, and Voyager 1/2.

Solar Wind Forecasting for Long-term Variations of the Global Heliosphere
The large-scale dynamics of the heliosphere is driven by solar activity and variable solar wind (SW) conditions. In situ SW observations inform time-dependent heliosphere modeling efforts but are only available up until the present day, thus restricting ...

Regional and Seasonal Effects of Geomagnetic Storms on Terrestrial Weather
Abstract It has long been a mystery why small Total Solar Irradiation changes have significant effects on Earth's climate. Solar cycle correlation studies abound but cannot conclusively point to a viable physical mechanism. Here, I show that geomagnetic storms have a profound terrestrial weather impact.

We study the transport of energetic particles accelerated at three different shock events observed in the solar wind by the ACE spacecraft. We consider particle propagation for a quasi-parallel, an oblique, and a quasi-perpendicular shock.

Soft X‐Ray Emission From Saturn's Magnetosheath II: Solar Wind Driving
Abstract Saturn's magnetosphere is dominated by Enceladus‐sourced neutrals, which spread throughout the system into the magnetosheath. The neutrals can charge exchange with highly charged solar wind ions, causing soft X‐ray emission (<2 ${< } 2$ keV) upon de‐excitation of the ion.
