Acceleration of an interplanetary shock through the magnetosheath: a global hybrid simulation
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space SciencesAccording to most observations and simulations, interplanetary shocks slow down when they propagate through the magnetosheath. In this article, we present results from a self-consistent global hybrid PIC simulation of an interplanetary shock which, by ...

Evidence for transient, local ion foreshocks caused by dayside magnetopause reconnection [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2016 We present a scenario resulting in time-dependent behaviour of the bow shock and transient, local ion reflection under unchanging solar wind conditions.

A semi-analytical foreshock model for energetic storm particle events inside 1 AU [PDF]
, 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.

Reflected ions at interplanetary shocks [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2010 This paper shows that the shock dissipation mechanism changes profoundly from the inner to outer heliosphere and that pickup ions are responsible for shock dissipation beyond 35 AU. We make the first study of reflected ions in ICME sheaths downstream of interplanetary shocks observed by Voyager 2 from 1–80 AU.

Short term Variability of the Sun Earth System: An Overview of Progress Made during the CAWSES II Period [PDF]
, 2015 This paper presents an overview of results obtained during the CAWSES II period on the short term variability of the Sun and how it affects the near Earth space environment. CAWSES II was planned to examine the behavior of the solar terrestrial system as

Interplanetary circumstances of quasi‐perpendicular interplanetary shocks in 1996–2005 [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2010 The angle (θBn) between the normal to an interplanetary shock front and the upstream magnetic field direction, though often thought of as a property “of the shock,” is also determined by the configuration of the magnetic field immediately upstream of the shock. We investigate the interplanetary circumstances of 105 near‐Earth quasi‐perpendicular shocks

MHD waves at the pre-front of interplanetary shocks on September 6 and 7, 2017
Solar-Terrestrial PhysicsWe analyze strong space weather disturbances during first ten days of September 2017, using the geomagnetic Dst index, parameters of normals to interplanetary shock fronts, direct measurements of interplanetary magnetic field, solar wind, and cosmic ray ...

The event of 21 June 1980 and the origin of solar cosmic rays [PDF]
Geofísica Internacional, 2000 We present well-observed interplanetary disturbances in the near Earth environment and discuss their behavior. From these observations a hypothetical two source origin of Solar Cosmic Rays is discussed.

Ion dynamics in quasi-perpendicular collisionless interplanetary shocks: A case study
Frontiers in Physics, 2013 Interplanetary shocks are believed to play an important role in the acceleration of charged particles in the heliosphere. While the acceleration to high energies proceeds via the diffusive mechanism at the scales exceeding by far the shock width, the ...
