Change of Spectral Properties of Magnetic Field Fluctuations across Different Types of Interplanetary Shocks

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
The interaction between interplanetary (IP) shocks and the solar wind has been studied in the past for the understanding of energy dissipation mechanisms within collisionless plasmas.

Interplanetary Signatures during the 1972 Early August Solar Storms

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
In 1972, early August, a series of interplanetary shocks were observed in the heliosphere from 0.8 to 2.2 au. These shocks were attributed to a series of brilliant flares and plasma clouds since at that time coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and their ...

Frequency‐Dependent Responses of Plasmaspheric Hiss to the Impact of an Interplanetary Shock

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2021
Plasmaspheric hiss waves are essential for the pitch‐angle scattering and precipitation of energetic electrons and interplanetary shocks may affect these waves.

The Crucial Role of Perpendicular Diffusion in the Longitude Distribution of >10 MeV Solar Energetic Protons

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Gradual solar proton events are thought to consist of solar components originating near the Sun and interplanetary components associated with interplanetary shocks, and the role of interplanetary shocks is considered to be crucial in supplying particles ...

Planar Magnetic Structures Downstream of Coronal Mass Ejection–driven Shocks in the Inner Heliosphere

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Planar magnetic structures (PMSs), characterized by interplanetary magnetic field vectors remaining parallel to a specific plane, are commonly observed in the solar wind, especially in the sheath region of interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs ...

Reflected ions at interplanetary shocks [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2010
This paper shows that the shock dissipation mechanism changes profoundly from the inner to outer heliosphere and that pickup ions are responsible for shock dissipation beyond 35 AU. We make the first study of reflected ions in ICME sheaths downstream of interplanetary shocks observed by Voyager 2 from 1–80 AU.

Variations of Heavy Ions in Different Types of Interplanetary Shocks

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Heavy ions upstream and downstream of interplanetary shocks are not only subject to acceleration, heating, and spatiotemporal modulation during their propagation in interplanetary space, but they can also, in turn, influence the dynamical properties of ...

Physical Characteristics of Coronal Region Driving Out the Interplanetary Shock [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2008
Using the solar wind data of 2000 observed by ACE, We classified the interplanetary shock on basis of shock driver. We examined the physical properties of shock drivers such as the ratio of charge states(O7/O6) and thermal index(I_{th}).

From Flybys to Sample Return: A Review of Space Probes and Robotic Sampling Technologies for Small Bodies

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Particle Acceleration at Interplanetary Shocks [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2008
The acceleration of interstellar pick-up ions as well as solar wind species has been observed at a multitude of interplanetary (IP) shocks by different spacecraft. This paper expands upon previous work modeling the phase space distributions of accelerated ions associated with the shock event encountered on day 292 of 1991 by the Ulysses mission at 4.5 ...
