Turbulence Upstream and Downstream of Interplanetary Shocks [PDF]
Frontiers in Physics, 2021 The paper reviews the interaction of collisionless interplanetary (IP) shocks with the turbulent solar wind. The coexistence of shocks and turbulence plays an important role in understanding the acceleration of particles via Fermi acceleration mechanisms,

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 In this work, we extend Leighton’s diffusion model describing the turbulent mixing of magnetic footpoints on the solar wind source surface. The present Lagrangian stochastic model is based on the spherical Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process with drift that is ...

Relationship of Transport Coefficients with Statistical Quantities of Charged Particles
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 In previous studies, a general spatial transport equation was derived from the Fokker–Planck equation. The latter equation contains an infinite number of spatial derivative terms T _n = κ _nz ∂ ^n F /∂ z ^n with n = 1, 2, 3, ⋯ .

Cosmic ray fluctuations and MHD waves in the solar wind
Solar-Terrestrial Physics, 2023 During large-scale solar wind disturbances, variations in galactic cosmic rays with periods from several minutes to 2–3 hours, which are called cosmic ray fluctuations in the scientific literature, often occur.

Interpretation of Flat Energy Spectra Upstream of Fast Interplanetary Shocks
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 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.
