Intermittent character of interplanetary magnetic field fluctuations

open access: yesPhysics of Plasmas, 2007
Interplanetary magnetic field magnitude fluctuations are notoriously more intermittent than velocity fluctuations in both fast and slow wind. This behavior has been interpreted in terms of the anomalous scaling observed in passive scalars in fully developed hydrodynamic turbulence.

On an interplanetary magnetic field [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research, 1955
Considerations suggesting the existence of an interplanetary magnetic field are presented. Such a field would not exceed about 5×10−8 gauss, and its presence can explain the observed cutoff in the primary cosmic-ray momentum spectrum. A field existing within the earth's orbit can account for all or part of the observed solar-terrestrial time delays in ...

Lagrangian Stochastic Model for the Motions of Magnetic Footpoints on the Solar Wind Source Surface and the Path Lengths of Boundary-driven Interplanetary Magnetic Field Lines

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
In this work, we extend Leighton’s diffusion model describing the turbulent mixing of magnetic footpoints on the solar wind source surface. The present Lagrangian stochastic model is based on the spherical Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process with drift that is ...

Relationship of Transport Coefficients with Statistical Quantities of Charged Particles

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
In previous studies, a general spatial transport equation was derived from the Fokker–Planck equation. The latter equation contains an infinite number of spatial derivative terms T _n = κ _nz ∂ ^n F /∂ z ^n with n = 1, 2, 3, ⋯ .

Energetics of Shock-triggered Supersubstorms (SML < −2500 nT)

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The solar wind energy input and dissipation in the magnetospheric–ionospheric systems of 17 supersubstorms (SSSs: SML < −2500 nT) triggered by interplanetary shocks during solar cycles 23 and 24 are studied in detail. The SSS events had durations ranging

Active Regions and the Interplanetary Magnetic Field [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1968
The relation of solar active regions to the large-scale sector structure of the interplanetary field is discussed. In the winter of 1963–64 (observed by the satellite IMP-1) the plage density was greatest in the leading portion of the sectors and lesser in the trailing portion of the sectors. The boundaries of the sectors (places at which the direction

Are Switchback Boundaries Observed by Parker Solar Probe Closed?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Switchbacks are sudden and large deflections in the magnetic field that Parker Solar Probe frequently observes in the inner heliosphere. Their ubiquitous occurrence has prompted numerous studies to determine their nature and origin.

Does Magnetic Reconnection Occur in the Near Lunar Surface Environment?

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
The near lunar surface contains small‐scale magnetic field structures that provide a natural test bed for observing plasmas with a non‐zero Hall electric field, as well as potentially facilitating electron‐only reconnection.
