Anhydrous minerals in asteroid Bennu: Evidence for well‐preserved primordial components
Abstract Aqueously altered carbonaceous astromaterials are dominated by secondary minerals, but a minor fraction of primary, anhydrous silicates and oxides escape alteration, offering insight into the original composition of asteroid parent bodies. We report the mineralogy, petrology, mineral chemistry, and oxygen isotopes of anhydrous minerals—50 ...

High Energy Solar Particle Events and their Associated Coronal Mass Ejections
Intense solar energetic particle (SEP) events data, associated with ground level enhancements (GLEs), occurred during 1989 to 2006 have been obtained from the spectrometers on board GOES spacecraft in the energy range 10-100 MeV.

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 ...

Machine Learning for Local Detection of Separators in Three‐Dimensional Magnetic Fields
Abstract Magnetic reconnection is a major plasma phenomenon occurring in various key environments ranging from the Sun and near‐Earth space to astrophysical plasmas. While magnetic reconnection is relatively well‐understood under two‐dimensional (2D) settings, it remains challenging to characterize in three‐dimensional (3D) magnetic fields.

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 ...

How Common is Energetic ^3He in the Inner Heliosphere? [PDF]
Using data from the SIS and ULEIS instruments on the Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE) we have identified periods during which energetic ^3He is present in near-Earth interplanetary space between November 1997 and May 2002.

Evolution of Electron Acceleration by Corotating Interaction Region Shocks at 1 au
We present the first observations of in situ electron acceleration at corotating interaction region (CIR) shocks near 1 au, utilizing measurements from Wind and Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission in the interplanetary medium. As the forward (reverse)

TRANSPORT EQUATION FOR MHD TURBULENCE: APPLICATION TO PARTICLE ACCELERATION AT INTERPLANETARY SHOCKS
The aim of the present paper is to unify the various transport equations for turbulent waves that are used in different areas of space physics. Here, we mostly focus on the magnetohydrodynamic turbulence, in particular the Alfvenic turbulence. The applied methods, however, are general and can be extended to other forms of turbulence, for example the ...
