Low Density Drivers of Strong Interplanetary Shocks [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1996
AbstractThe theory that most, if not all, interplanetary shocks are caused by coronal mass ejections (CMEs) faces serious problems in accounting for the strongest shocks. The difficulties include (i) a remarkable absence of very strong shocks during solar maximum 1980 when CMEs were prolific, (ii) unrealistic initial speeds near the Sun for impulsive ...

The first discovery of a shocked, metasomatised CV3 chondrule‐fragment in a (Al,Cu)‐bearing micrometeorite

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 9, Page 2269-2283, September 2026.
Abstract We report the discovery of the second (Al,Cu)‐alloy–bearing micrometeorite, FB‐A2, recovered from Mount Gariglione (southern Italy), representing the sixth such occurrence worldwide. Although chondritic in nature, FB‐A2 differs markedly from previously described microspherules.

Turbulent Heating of Solar Wind Plasma Downstream of Magnetohydrodynamic Shocks

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Interplanetary (IP) shocks are believed to play a significant role in both amplifying the background level of turbulent fluctuations and in heating the bulk solar wind (SW). This study investigates the thermodynamic properties downstream of IP shocks. We

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 9, Page 4015-4040, 1 September 2026.
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 ...

Formation of H+ PUI Tails Downstream of Distant Interplanetary Shocks

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
New Horizons’ Solar Wind Around Pluto (SWAP) instrument has observed interplanetary shocks from ∼20 to 60 au from the Sun. Different studies have analyzed the effects of these shocks on the solar wind ion (SWI) and interstellar pickup ion (PUI ...

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

open access: yesThe 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

open access: yes, 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

open access: yesThe 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

open access: yesJournal 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]

open access: yes, 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.
