Solar influences in the heliosphere: understanding coronal mass ejections and their associated magnetic clouds [PDF]

, 2011
Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are large-scale explosions on the Sun that expel plasma and magnetic field into the heliosphere. The interplanetary counterparts of CMEs, termed interplanetary CMEs (ICMEs), are often directly observed by spacecraft ...

Instabilities Driven by Proton Temperature Anisotropy in the Presence of Alpha Particles: Implications for Proton-temperature-anisotropy Constraint in the Solar Wind

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
In situ measurements reveal that proton temperature anisotropy is ubiquitous in the solar wind. Various plasma instabilities have been proposed to regulate the distribution of the proton temperature anisotropy in the solar wind; detailed constraint ...

On the Physical Realization of Two‐dimensional Turbulence Fields in Magnetized Interplanetary Plasmas

The Astrophysical Journal, 2006
Studies of solar-flare cosmic-ray particle transport in the interplanetary medium and data analysis of the fluctuating solar wind magnetic fields have revealed the existence of dominating, two-dimensional transverse magnetic fluctuations. Here it is demonstrated that the filamentation instability of counterstreaming magnetized plasmas provides a ...

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

Sudden commencement event of 17 April 2002: Aspects of the geomagnetic response at low latitudes [PDF]

, 2005
An analysis of a sudden commencement (SC) manifestation reveals a significant contribution of the polar current system which influences the long-term behavior of the H component at low-latitude ground stations located in the subsolar sector. A transition

The search for the ultimate exercise countermeasure to preserve crew health and ensure mission success in long‐duration spaceflight

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The current understanding of crew health maintenance is founded upon decades of physiological research conducted in terrestrial spaceflight analogues and in low Earth orbit, particularly on the International Space Station. However, as we progress towards the Lunar Gateway and interplanetary missions, it is imperative that the tools employed to

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
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 ...

Probing the high latitude ionosphere from ground-based observations: The state of current knowledge and capabilities during IPY (2007-2009) [PDF]

, 2008
During the International Polar Year (IPY), one area of great interest is co-coordinated, multi-instrument probing of the ionosphere at high latitudes. This region is important not only for the applications that rely upon our understanding of it, but also

Magnetic local time dependency on cusp ion velocity dispersions in the mid-altitude cusp [PDF]

, 2001
Observations of cusp ion velocity dispersions made by the TIMAS instrument on the Polar spacecraft in the mid-altitude cusp during intervals of northward interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) reveal a clear ordering with magnetic local time (MLT).

First simultaneous observations of flux transfer events at the high-latitude magnetopause by the cluster spacecraft and pulsed radar signatures in the conjugate ionosphere by the CUTLASS and EISCAT radars [PDF]

, 2001
Cluster magnetic field data are studied during an outbound pass through the post-noon high-latitude magnetopause region on 14 February 2001. The onset of several minute perturbations in the magnetospheric field was observed in conjunction with a ...
