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 (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 ...

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

Dynamical evolution of interplanetary magnetic fields and flows between 0.3 AU and 8.5 AU: Entrainment [PDF]
The radial evolution of interplanetary flows and associated magnetic fields between 0.3 AU and 8.5 was analyzed using data from Helios 1 and Voyager 1, respectively.

Reflected ions at interplanetary shocks [PDF]
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.

Plasmaspheric High‐Frequency Whistlers as a Candidate Cause of Shock Aurora at Earth
Auroral brightening driven by interplanetary shocks on Earth's closed magnetic field lines is commonly attributed to the 0.1–10 keV electron precipitations by electron cyclotron harmonic waves and whistler‐mode chorus waves in the low‐density region.

Interplanetary circumstances of quasi‐perpendicular interplanetary shocks in 1996–2005 [PDF]
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

Magnetic Discontinuities in the Inner Heliosphere: Do Intermediate Shocks Exist?
Magnetic discontinuities are fundamental structures in space and laboratory plasmas where the changes in magnetic and velocity fields are constrained by Rankine–Hugoniot relations.

Interpretation of Flat Energy Spectra Upstream of Fast Interplanetary Shocks
Interplanetary shocks are large-scale heliospheric structures often caused by eruptive phenomena at the Sun, and represent one of the main sources of energetic particles.

Localized enhancements of energetic particles at oblique collisionless shocks
We investigate the spatial distribution of charged particles accelerated by non-relativistic oblique fast collisionless shocks using three-dimensional test-particle simulations.
