A semi-analytical foreshock model for energetic storm particle events inside 1 AU

open access: yesJournal of Space Weather and Space Climate, 2014
We have constructed a semi-analytical model of the energetic-ion foreshock of a CME-driven coronal/interplanetary shock wave responsible for the acceleration of large solar energetic particle (SEP) events.

Suprathermal Electron Spectra at the Earth’s Bow Shock

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present a statistical study of in situ acceleration of ∼0.4–200 keV suprathermal electrons at the Earth’s bow shock, using Wind 3D Plasma and Energetic Particle measurements from 1994 November to 2004 May.

Electron Acceleration Efficiency at Earth’s Bow Shock: Statistical Results

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
In this paper, we present a statistical study of electron acceleration efficiency in 1492 selected bow shock events. We define the acceleration efficiency as $\eta ={n}_{{\rm{dn}}}/{n}_{{\rm{am}}}$ , where ${n}_{{\rm{dn}}}$ and n _am are the downstream ...

Towards advanced forecasting of solar energetic particle events with the PARASOL model

open access: yesJournal of Space Weather and Space Climate
Gradual solar energetic particle (SEP) events are generally attributed to the particle acceleration in shock waves driven by coronal mass ejections (CMEs). Space-weather effects of such events are important, so there has been continuous effort to develop

Interplanetary Magnetic Field Curvature and Its Role in Particle Acceleration: Magnetospheric Multiscale and Solar Orbiter Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The curvature of the magnetic field plays a crucial role in magnetic confinement, magnetic reconnection, particle heating, and acceleration. Though the magnetic field curvature has been sufficiently investigated in the terrestrial magnetosheath, there is

Two‐Step Electron Acceleration During a Flux Rope Crossing of Earth's Bow Shock

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
The generation of cosmic ray particles with ultra‐relativistic energies is a crucial issue in astrophysical and space physics. Shocks have been acknowledged as efficient accelerators in the universe which can produce energetic particles through a variety

Tempered Superdiffusive Shock Acceleration at a Perpendicular Shock

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
A theory for steady-state tempered superdiffusive shock acceleration of energetic particles at a plane perpendicular shock is presented that involves solving analytically a tempered fractional Parker transport equation for perpendicular transport in ...
