Similarities and Differences between ICME-driven Shocks Observed by VEX (∼0.72 au) and WIND (∼1.0 au)

The Astrophysical Journal
The features of interplanetary shocks driven by interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) observed by WIND (∼1.0 au) and Venus Express (VEX; ∼0.72 au) during the same period are statistically analyzed by comparing their similarities and differences ...

MeV Ion Anisotropies in the Vicinity of Interplanetary Shocks

, 2007
The anticipated signatures of interplanetary shock acceleration to be found in energetic ion anisotropies in the vicinity of interplanetary shocks include near-isotropic particle distributions consistent with of diffusive shock acceleration, "pancake ...

Parker Solar Probe Observations of Turbulence and Waves between a Current Sheet and an Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejection–Driven Shock

The Astrophysical Journal
We report on unusual magnetic wave activity seen in a region between the crossing of a current sheet and an interplanetary shock by the Parker Solar Probe (PSP).

Evidence for superdiffusive shock acceleration at interplanetary shock waves

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2015
Recent analysis of time profiles of energetic particles accelerated at interplanetary shocks has shown evidence for superdiffusive transport upstream of the shock fronts, namely for a transport characterized by a particle mean square displacement that grows faster than linearly in time.

Electron heating at interplanetary shocks [PDF]

, 1982
Data for 41 forward interplanetary shocks show that the ratio of downstream to upstream electron temperatures. T sub e (d/u) is variable in the range between 1.0 (isothermal) and 3.0.

Automatic Identification of Interplanetary Shocks Based on Machine Learning

Space Weather
Fast forward interplanetary shocks (FFs) are one of the primary drivers of space weather events. This study presents an automated detection algorithm for FFs based on a multilayer perceptron model, utilizing in situ measurements of interplanetary ...

Simultaneous interplanetary scintillation and Heliospheric Imager observations of a coronal mass ejection [PDF]

, 2008
We describe simultaneous Interplanetary Scintillation (IPS) and STEREO Heliospheric Imager (HI) observations of a coronal mass ejection (CME) on 16 May 2007. Strong CME signatures were present throughout the IPS observation.

Nonthermal Acceleration of Electrons, Positrons, and Protons at a Nonrelativistic Quasi-parallel Collisionless Shock

The Astrophysical Journal
Energetic positrons have been observed in the interstellar medium, and high-energy positrons with relativistic energies up to approximately 1 TeV have been detected in Galactic cosmic rays.

Associations between coronal mass ejections and interplanetary shocks [PDF]

, 1983
Nearly continuous complementary coronal observations and interplanetary plasma measurements for the years 1979-1982 are compared. It is shown that almost all low latitude high speed coronal mass ejections (CME's) were associated with shocks at HELIOS 1 ...

Search Coil vs. Fluxgate Magnetometer Measurements at Interplanetary Shocks [PDF]

, 2012
We present magnetic field observations at interplanetary shocks comparing two different sample rates showing significantly different results. Fluxgate magnetometer measurements show relatively laminar supercritical shock transitions at roughly 11 samples/
