Plasmaspheric High‐Frequency Whistlers as a Candidate Cause of Shock Aurora at Earth

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Auroral brightening driven by interplanetary shocks on Earth's closed magnetic field lines is commonly attributed to the 0.1–10 keV electron precipitations by electron cyclotron harmonic waves and whistler‐mode chorus waves in the low‐density region.

Use of the Shock Wave Therapy in Basic Research and Clinical Applications—From Bench to Bedsite

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2022
Shock Waves (SW) are acoustic disturbances that propagate through a medium carrying the energy. These specific sonic pulses are composed of two phases—high positive pressure, a rise time < 10 ns, and a tensile wave. Originally Shock Waves were introduced
