Interactions of energetic electrons with ULF waves triggered by interplanetary shock: Van Allen Probes observations in the magnetotail [PDF]

, 2014
We present in situ observations of a shock-induced substorm-like event on 13 April 2013 observed by the newly launched Van Allen twin probes. Substorm-like electron injections with energy of 30-500 keV were observed in the region from L∼5.2 to 5.5 ...

Interplanetary shock induced ring current auroras [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2008
On 21 January 2005, a fast interplanetary (IP) shock compressed the magnetosphere and caused detached auroras (DA) on the dayside, duskside and nightside ionosphere. The DA were detected by three independent FUV instruments: IMAGE/SI‐12, TIMED/GUVI and DMSP/SSUSI. The SI‐12 observations show that the dayside detached aurora (DDA) was located between 60°

Surface Air Enrichment of Cosmogenic 35S at a Subtropical Site During the May 2024 Solar Superstorm

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Cosmogenic radiosulfur (35S) is produced in the atmosphere by high‐energy particle interactions and serves as a sensitive tracer of stratospheric intrusions. In May 2024, an extreme solar storm provided a rare opportunity to examine atmospheric 35S responses to intense solar activity.

Energetics of Shock-triggered Supersubstorms (SML < −2500 nT)

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The solar wind energy input and dissipation in the magnetospheric–ionospheric systems of 17 supersubstorms (SSSs: SML < −2500 nT) triggered by interplanetary shocks during solar cycles 23 and 24 are studied in detail. The SSS events had durations ranging

Evolution of Anemone AR NOAA 10798 and the Related Geo-Effective Flares and CMEs

, 2008
We present a detailed examination of the features of the Active Region (AR) NOAA 10798. This AR generated coronal mass ejections (CMEs) that caused a large geomagnetic storm on 24 August 2005 with the minimum Dst index of -216 nT.

Surface‐Driven Protocell Formation in Geologically Relevant Early Earth Environment

ChemSystemsChem, Volume 8, Issue 2, March 2026.
Illustration of a prebiotic early‐Earth environment showing cell‐like protocells (blue spheres) and other complex organic molecules (pink and green spheres) distributed across terrestrial surfaces and within subsurface niches. Volcanic landscapes and mineral‐rich substrates provide diverse geochemical settings for the assembly and evolution of ...

Flat Spectra of Energetic Particles in Interplanetary Shock Precursors

The Astrophysical Journal
The observed energy spectra of accelerated particles at interplanetary shocks often do not match the diffusive shock acceleration (DSA) theory predictions. In some cases, the particle flux forms a plateau over a wide range of energies, extending upstream

Quasi-steady solar wind dynamics [PDF]

, 1983
Progress in understanding the large scale dynamics of quasisteady, corotating solar wind structure was reviewed. The nature of the solar wind at large heliocentric distances preliminary calculations from a 2-D MHD model are used to demonstrate ...

The Evolution of a Polar Cap Patch Into a Blob in the Nightside Ionosphere: Direct Observations of Multiple Blob Formation Mechanisms Acting Simultaneously on the Same Plasma

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract A polar cap patch was observed to exit the polar cap to become a blob as it entered the auroral oval on the nightside of the Earth under moderately quiet geomagnetic conditions (Kp = 3−). Auroral particle precipitation led to an increase in the electron density of the blob.

Interplanetary slow shock observed from Wind

Geophysical Research Letters, 1996
Observations of interplanetary slow shocks near 1 AU are rare. From the magnetic field data obtained from MFI and the proton and electron data obtained from SWE of the WIND spacecraft, we identify the observation of a reverse slow shock on December 24, 1994. The plasma β is small in preshock region.
