On the role of interplanetary shocks in accelerating MeV electrons

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2023
Context. One of the sources of solar energetic particle (SEP) events is shocks that are driven by fast coronal mass ejections (CMEs). They can accelerate SEPs up to relativistic energies and are attributed to the largest SEP events. New studies suggest that CME-driven shocks can potentially accelerate electrons to MeV energies in the vicinity of the ...

Anhydrous minerals in asteroid Bennu: Evidence for well‐preserved primordial components

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Aqueously altered carbonaceous astromaterials are dominated by secondary minerals, but a minor fraction of primary, anhydrous silicates and oxides escape alteration, offering insight into the original composition of asteroid parent bodies. We report the mineralogy, petrology, mineral chemistry, and oxygen isotopes of anhydrous minerals—50 ...

Turbulence development behind the bow shock during disturbed and undisturbed solar wind

Solar-Terrestrial Physics
Magnetosheath is a transition layer between the solar wind and the magnetosphere and may contribute to the geoeffectiveness of various large-scale interplanetary phenomena.

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

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 ...

The Speed of Interplanetary Shocks Through the Magnetosheath: A Toy Model

Geophysical Research Letters
Before interacting with the magnetosphere, an interplanetary shock travels through the magnetosheath where its speed and shape are modified. Previous studies have reported widely different answers to the question of the speed of an interplanetary shock ...

Solar Energetic Particle Forecasting With Multi‐Task Deep Learning: SEPNET

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Solar energetic particle (SEP) events pose severe threats to spacecraft, astronaut safety, and aviation operations. Accurate SEP forecasting remains a critical challenge in space weather research as a result of their complex origins and highly variable propagation.

Mercury’s Bow Shock and Magnetopause Variations According to MESSENGER Data

Universe
Using data from the MESSENGER spacecraft magnetometer that describes the magnetopause and the bow shock crossing points of the Mercury’s magnetosphere, we have calculated the parameters of the paraboloids of revolution approximating the obtained points ...

Irregular Proton Injection to High Energies at Interplanetary Shocks

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
How thermal particles are accelerated to suprathermal energies is an unsolved issue, crucial for many astrophysical systems. We report novel observations of irregular, dispersive enhancements of the suprathermal particle population upstream of a high ...
