Mercury’s Low‐Latitude Boundary Layer: Identification of Distinct Proton Populations Using MESSENGER Spacecraft Data

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract We have performed a comprehensive analysis of Mercury’s Low‐Latitude Boundary Layer (LLBL) using data from the MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, GEochemistry and Ranging (MESSENGER) spacecraft during its orbital phase. Using combined magnetic field and ion measurements, we identified 202 LLBL events and categorized them into three distinct ...

Efficiency of particle acceleration at interplanetary shocks: Statistical study of STEREO observations

, 2016
Context. Among others, shocks are known to be accelerators of energetic charged particles. However, many questions regarding the acceleration efficiency and the required conditions are not fully understood. In particular, the acceleration of electrons by

The Extreme GIC Occurrence During 11 years of Observations in the North‐West of Russia

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract For the first time, events with extreme magnitudes of geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) in the power lines during the quasi‐solar cycle (2012–2022) at auroral and subauroral latitudes are analyzed. GIC recordings from auroral Vykhodnoy (Murmansk region) and subauroral Kondopoga (Karelia) sub‐stations together with data from near‐by ...

Arrival times of Flare/Halo CME associated shocks at the Earth: comparison of the predictions of three numerical models with these observations [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2002
The arrival times at L1 of eleven travelling shocks associated both with X-ray flaring and with halo CMEs recorded aboard SOHO/LASCO have been considered.

Propagation of Interplanetary Shocks in the Heliosphere

, 2023
Interplanetary shocks are one of the crucial dynamic processes in the Heliosphere. They accelerate particles into a high energy, generate plasma waves, and could potentially trigger geomagnetic storms in the terrestrial magnetosphere disturbing significantly our technological infrastructures. In this study, two IP shock events are selected to study the

How Does the Definition of a Geomagnetic Storm Affect the Contents of the Resulting Storm List?

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract A geomagnetic storm is a significant and prolonged disturbance of the Earth's magnetic field caused by an enhancement of the ring current. Storms are typically identified using magnetic field measurements from multiple ground‐based magnetometers, and the corresponding dates and times of multiple storms can be collated to form a storm list ...

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

Simulation of January 1-7, 1978 events [PDF]

The solar wind disturbances of January 1 to 7, 1978 are reconstructed by a modeling method. First, the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) background pattern, including a corotating shock, is reproduced using the Stanford source surface map.

Leveraging Legacy Broadband Magnetotelluric Data for Geoelectric Field Hazard Assessment in Southern Italy

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) are a significant space weather hazard. Their accurate assessment requires estimating the geoelectric field, which depends on the Earth's subsurface electrical conductivity. While long‐period magnetotelluric (MT) surveys are ideal, archives of legacy broadband MT data, originally acquired for geological ...

Predicting CME Arrivals From L5 Heliospheric Imagers: The Impact of HI Track Length

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory (STEREO) mission has laid a foundation for advancing real‐time space weather forecasting by enabling the evaluation of heliospheric imager (HI) data for predicting coronal mass ejection (CME) arrivals at Earth.
