On the Transmission of Turbulence Across Interplanetary Shocks: Observations and Theory
, 2023 Collisionless magnetohydrodynamic shocks are ubiquitous in solar wind and in other space plasmas. They serve as natural sites where charged particles can be accelerated to supra-thermal energies via various Fermi acceleration mechanisms. Upstream and downstream fluctuations play a key role in these processes because they can act as scatter centers ...

On the interaction of interplanetary shocks and solar wind turbulence
, 2021 <p>The propagation of collisionless shocks through the turbulent magnetized plasmas has been investigated for decades. The processes connected with the formation and propagation of Interplanetary (IP) shocks play a key role in the acceleration of particles and in the coupling to the Earth&#8217;s magnetosphere.

The Astrophysical JournalWe study the radial evolution of the inertial-range solar wind plasma turbulence and its anisotropy in the outer heliosphere. We use magnetic field ( B ) measurements from the Voyager 2 spacecraft for heliocentric distances R from 1 to 33 au.

Shock waves propagation in the turbulent interplanetary plasma [PDF]
Advances in Space Research, 1996 AbstractEffect of turbulence on interplanetary shock waves propagation is considered. It is shown that background turbulence results in the additional shock wave deceleration which may be comparable with the deceleration due to plasma sweeping. The turbulent deceleration is connected with the energy losses due to the strong turbulence amplification ...

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, ⋯ .
