Betatron Cooling of Halo and Strahl Electrons in the Solar Wind

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
It is widely recognized that adiabatic acceleration plays an essential role in the dynamics of the solar wind electron distribution. Nevertheless, the role of electron adiabatic cooling remains poorly understood, at least from an observational standpoint.

Coronal Mass Ejections - Propagation Time and Associated Internal Energy

open access: yes, 2010
In this paper, we analyze 91 coronal mass ejection (CME) events studied by Manoharan et al. (2004) and Gopalswamy and Xie (2008). These earth-directed CMEs are large (width $>$160$^\circ$) and cover a wide range of speeds ($\sim$120--2400 {\kmps}) in the

Mirror Mode Mediated EMIC Wave Generation in the Magnetosheath

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract Electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves and mirror modes (MMs), both driven by ion temperature anisotropy, are commonly observed in planetary magnetosheaths. Conventional explanations for their co‐occurrence are largely based on linear instability theory in proton–electron plasmas, which requires comparable growth rates for the EMIC and MM ...

The Heliocentric Distance Where the Deflections and Rotations of Solar Coronal Mass Ejections Occur

open access: yes, 2015
Understanding the trajectory of a coronal mass ejection (CME), including any deflection from a radial path, and the orientation of its magnetic field is essential for space weather predictions. Kay et al.

Mesospheric and Lower Thermospheric Responses to the May 2024 Geomagnetic Storm in the Antarctic Peninsula

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract We analyze the response of mean winds and semidiurnal tides (SDTs) in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT; ∼70–110 km altitude) to the May 2024 geomagnetic super storm, based on meteor radar (MR) observations from King Sejong Station (KSS; geographic: 62.22°S, 58.78°W; geomagnetic: 53.27°S, 10.88°E) in the Antarctic Peninsula.

Interstellar Dust in the Solar System: Model versus In-Situ Spacecraft Data

open access: yes, 2019
In the early 1990s, contemporary interstellar dust penetrating deep into the heliosphere was identified with the in-situ dust detector on board the Ulysses spacecraft.

Evolution of Open Magnetic Flux During Substorms: The Effects of Dipole Tilt Angle

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract There is a long‐standing debate on the causes of the semiannual variation of geomagnetic activity. One of the prevailing hypotheses is that the Earth's dipole tilt angle Ψ ${\Psi }$ modulates the dayside reconnection rate, causing the so‐called equinoctial effect. Here we perform the first large‐scale statistical study to test this hypothesis.

The Radial Variation of Suprathermal Particles in Stream Interaction Regions: Comparisons between Solar Orbiter, ACE, and STEREO-A

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
With the launch of Solar Orbiter, the intensity and composition of suprathermal particles have been sampled within the inner heliosphere at distances between ∼0.3 and 1 au.

Heliospheric Evolution of Magnetic Clouds

open access: yes, 2019
Interplanetary evolution of eleven magnetic clouds (MCs) recorded by at least two radially aligned spacecraft is studied. The in situ magnetic field measurements are fitted to a cylindrically symmetric Gold-Hoyle force-free uniform-twist flux-rope ...

Rapid Evolution of Super Equatorial Plasma Bubbles and X‐Pattern EIA Formation During Extreme Storm Conditions on 12 November 2025

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract Extreme conditions during storms profoundly alter the evolution of equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs), yet the key dynamics remains poorly understood. We document the rapid expansion, contraction, and decay of super EPBs in South America during the 12 November 2025 storm with Interplanetary Magnetic Field (IMF) Bz/By magnitude exceeding ∼50 nT ...
