Formation of the Injection Function of Solar Energetic Particles in Gradual Events
We present a model for solar energetic particle injection into interplanetary space in gradual events, in which particle acceleration occurs in a limited region of the solar atmosphere.

On the acceleration of energetic particles in the interplanetary medium [PDF]
Fermi scattering and transit time damping are two possible mechanisms for accelerating low energy protons (approximately 1 Mev) in co-rotating particle streams. Solutions to the equations which govern particle behavior in such streams are presented. It was found that acceleration by Fermi scattering requires a scattering mean-free path more than an ...

Flat Spectra of Energetic Particles in Interplanetary Shock Precursors
The observed energy spectra of accelerated particles at interplanetary shocks often do not match the diffusive shock acceleration (DSA) theory predictions. In some cases, the particle flux forms a plateau over a wide range of energies, extending upstream

ERNE observations of energetic particles associated with Earth-directed coronal mass ejections in April and May, 1997 [PDF]
Two Earth-directed coronal mass ejections (CMEs), which were most effective in energetic (~1–50 MeV) particle acceleration during the first 18 months since the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) launch, occurred on April 7 and May 12, 1997.

Efficiency of particle acceleration at interplanetary shocks: Statistical study of STEREO observations [PDF]
Context. Among others, shocks are known to be accelerators of energetic charged particles. However, many questions regarding the acceleration efficiency and the required conditions are not fully understood. In particular, the acceleration of electrons by shocks is often questioned. Aims.

Three-stage Acceleration of Solar Energetic Particles Detected by Parker Solar Probe
Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) drive powerful shocks and thereby accelerate solar energetic particles (SEPs) as they propagate from the corona into interplanetary space.

Breeding 5.0: Artificial intelligence (AI)‐decoded germplasm for accelerated crop innovation
ABSTRACT Crop breeding technologies are vital for global food security. While traditional methods have improved yield, stress tolerance, and nutrition, rising challenges such as climate instability, land loss, and pest pressure now demand new solutions.

Abstract The Atacama Desert in Chile is characterized by its high meteorite density and old meteorite terrestrial ages. In this work, we present new terrestrial ages derived from measurements of the concentration of cosmogenic 36Cl in the metal fraction of 51 ordinary chondrites collected over a 6.8 km2 area located in the Catalina Dense Collection ...

Ulysses COSPIN observations of cosmic rays and solar energetic particles from the South Pole to the North Pole of the Sun during solar maximum [PDF]
In 2000–2001 Ulysses passed from the south to the north polar regions of the Sun in the inner heliosphere, providing a snapshot of the latitudinal structure of cosmic ray modulation and solar energetic particle populations during a period near ...

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...
