Turbulence Upstream and Downstream of Interplanetary Shocks

Frontiers in Physics, 2021
The paper reviews the interaction of collisionless interplanetary (IP) shocks with the turbulent solar wind. The coexistence of shocks and turbulence plays an important role in understanding the acceleration of particles via Fermi acceleration mechanisms,

Ion‐Acoustic Waves Associated With Interplanetary Shocks

Geophysical Research Letters
Ion‐acoustic waves (IAWs) commonly occur near interplanetary (IP) shocks. These waves are important because of their potential role in the dissipation required for collisionless shocks to exist.

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

Interplanetary shock data base

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023
In this manuscript, I provide an updated interplanetary shock data base I published in previous works. This list has now 603 events. I also present and describe the data and methodologies used to compile this list. The main contribution of this work is to provide an updated end accurate interplanetary shock data base for future space physics and space ...

Variation of the Interplanetary Shocks in the Inner Heliosphere

, 2021
Observations of the solar wind plasma and interplanetary magnetic field in the ecliptic plane by the Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft are utilized to study the variation of the interplanetary shocks (with magnetosonic Mach number >1) encountered in the inner ...

Particle Acceleration at Interplanetary Shocks [PDF]

Space Science Reviews, 2007
This paper briefly reviews proton acceleration at interplanetary shocks. This is key to describing the acceleration of heavy ions at interplanetary shocks because wave excitation—and hence particle scattering—at oblique shocks is controlled by the protons and not the heavy ions.

Drift acceleration at interplanetary shocks [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 1994
AbstractScatter-free acceleration of energetic particles by quasi-perpendicular interplanetary shocks is investigated. A brief review is given on the predictions of the gradient drift acceleration model concerning the energy, time, and angular dependence of the particle flux caused by a single shock encounter interaction.
