Transport of cross helicity and radial evolution of alfvenicity in the solar wind [PDF]
, 2004 A transport theory including cross helicity, magnetohydrodynamic(MHD) turbulence, and driving by shear and pickup ions, is applied to the radial evolution of the solar wind.

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The discovery of very prominent magnetic kinks/switchbacks in the solar wind within 0.3 au has become a scientific highlight of the Parker Solar Probe (PSP) mission. This discovery points at the promising impact of small-scale solar activity on the inner

On the probability distribution function of small scale interplanetary magnetic field fluctuations [PDF]
, 2004 In spite of a large number of papers dedicated to study MHD turbulence in the solar wind there are still some simple questions which have never been sufficiently addressed like: a)do we really know how the magnetic field vector orientation fluctuates in ...

von Karman Correlation Similarity of the Turbulent Interplanetary Magnetic Field
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2021 Abstract A major development underlying much of hydrodynamic turbulence theory is the similarity decay hypothesis due to von Karman and Howarth here extended empirically to magnetic field fluctuations in the solar wind. In similarity decay the second-order correlation experiences a continuous transformation based on a universal ...

Solar interacting protons versus interplanetary protons in the core plus halo model of diffusive shock acceleration and stochastic re-acceleration [PDF]
, 2015 With the first observations of solar γ-rays from the decay of pions, the relationship of protons producing ground level enhancements (GLEs) on the Earth to those of similar energies producing the γ-rays on the Sun has been debated.

Solar and Interplanetary Turbulence: Lagrangian Coherent Structures
, 2020 <p>The dynamics of solar and interplanetary plasmas is governed by coherent structures such as current sheets and magnetic flux ropes which are responsible for the genesis of intermittent turbulence via magnetic reconnections in solar supergranular junctions, solar coronal loops, the shock-sheath region of an interplanetary ...

Multiple spacecraft observations of interplanetary shocks: Characteristics of the upstream ULF turbulence [PDF]
, 1982 All interplanetary shocks observed by ISEE-3 and either ISEE-1 or ISEE-2 or both in 1978 and 1979 are examined for evidence of upstream waves. In order to characterize the properties of these shocks it is necessary to determine accurate shock normals. An

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.
