Local Proton Heating at Magnetic Discontinuities in Alfvénic and Non-Alfvénic Solar Wind

The Astrophysical Journal
We investigate the local proton energization at magnetic discontinuities/intermittent structures and the corresponding kinetic signatures in velocity phase space in Alfvénic (high cross helicity) and non-Alfvénic (low cross helicity) wind streams ...

Turbulence-driven Anisotropic Acceleration of Energetic Electrons in Solar Wind Current Sheets

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Coherent structures in the solar wind, such as current sheets, are widely recognized as potential sites for energy dissipation and particle acceleration.

A Closer Look at Small-scale Magnetic Flux Ropes in the Solar Wind at 1 au: Results from Improved Automated Detection

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Small-scale interplanetary magnetic flux ropes (SMFRs) are similar to ICMEs in magnetic structure, but are smaller and do not exhibit coronal mass ejection plasma signatures.

Velocity-space Turbulent Cascade in the Near-Sun Solar Wind: First Insights from the Parker Solar Probe Mission

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
In space plasmas, the rarity of collisions leads to complex structures in the velocity space where a turbulent cascade of the velocity distribution function (VDF) fluctuations is thought to occur.
