Observations of ionospheric flows and particle precipitation following a Sudden Commencement [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2000 On May 4, 1998, at 0227 UT an interplanetary shock crossed the WIND spacecraft, and half an hour later a Sudden Commencement occurred. Coinciding with the Sudden Commencement a rapid intensification of the flux of particle precipitation into the ...

Quantifying the Agyrotropy of Proton and Electron Heating in Turbulent Plasmas
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 An important aspect of energy dissipation in weakly collisional plasmas is that of energy partitioning between different species (e.g., protons and electrons) and between different energy channels.

Betatron Acceleration of Suprathermal Electrons within a Small-scale Flux Rope in the Solar Wind
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 A growing body of evidence from observations, theories, and simulations indicates that particles can be effectively accelerated in solar wind regions filled with dynamic small-scale flux ropes (FRs).

Modelling interplanetary CMEs using magnetohydrodynamic simulations [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2002 The dynamics of Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejections (ICMEs) are discussed from the viewpoint of numerical modelling. Hydrodynamic models are shown to give a good zero-order picture of the plasma properties of ICMEs, but they cannot model the ...

On the probability distribution function of small scale interplanetary magnetic field fluctuations [PDF]
, 2004 In spite of a large number of papers dedicated to study MHD turbulence in the solar wind there are still some simple questions which have never been sufficiently addressed like: a)do we really know how the magnetic field vector orientation fluctuates in ...
