Loading Non‐Maxwellian Velocity Distributions in Particle Simulations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Numerical procedures for generating non‐Maxwellian velocity distributions in particle simulations are presented. First, Monte Carlo methods for the (r,q) $(r,q)$ distribution that generalizes flattop and Kappa distributions are discussed. Then, two rejection methods for the regularized Kappa distribution are presented, followed by a comparison

Anisotropy of TeV Cosmic Rays and the Outer Heliospheric Boundaries

, 2012
Cosmic rays in the energy range from about 10's GeV to several 100's TeV are observed on Earth with an energy-dependent anisotropy of order 0.01-0.1%, and a consistent topology that appears to significantly change at higher energy.

The Constraint of Crewed Mars Missions Based on Current Radiation Dose Measurements

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Crewed missions to Mars will be a milestone of future space exploration programs. However, the absence of Earth's magnetic field leaves astronauts directly exposed to unattenuated energetic particles in deep space, primarily galactic cosmic rays (GCRs), resulting in significantly higher radiation levels and enhanced health risks. Understanding

Interstellar Dust Scattering Properties

, 2003
Studies of dust scattering properties in astrophysical objects with Milky Way interstellar dust are reviewed. Such objects are reflection nebulae, dark clouds, and the Diffuse Galactic Light (DGL). To ensure their basic quality, studies had to satisfy four basic criteria to be included in this review.

Atmospheric and Deposition Responses of 10Be to Volcanic Eruptions Inferred From the Aerosol‐Climate Model ECHAM6.3‐HAM2.3‐SALSA2.0: 10Be

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
Abstract 10Be deposition in ice cores is widely used for solar reconstructions, but its interpretation is complicated by volcanic influences. Using the state‐of‐the‐art aerosol‐climate model ECHAM6.3‐HAM2.3‐SALSA2.0: 10Be, we assess the impacts of three major volcanic eruptions: Agung (1963), El Chichón (1982) and Pinatubo (1991). All eruptions enhance

Investigation of Interstellar Scintillation of the Millisecond Pulsar B1937+21 with the FAST

The Astrophysical Journal
Pulsar scintillation serves as a valuable tool for investigating interstellar scattering screens and their properties. In this paper, we report on multiepoch interstellar scintillation from the millisecond pulsar B1937+21 (J1939+2134) using Five-hundred ...

Reduced Geomagnetic Shielding During the Laschamps Excursion and Its Impact on Cosmic‐Ray‐Induced Atmospheric Radiation

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The Laschamps geomagnetic excursion (≈41,000 years BP) was a period of significant weakening and incomplete reversal of the Earth's magnetic field. The weakening substantially reduced geomagnetic shielding against cosmic rays (CRs), which contribute to phenomena at Earth, such as cosmogenic isotope production, and atmospheric ionisation and ...

Observation of Diffuse Galactic Light Near the Galactic Center with ONC-T on Board Hayabusa2

The Astrophysical Journal
Diffuse Galactic light (DGL) is starlight scattered by interstellar dust. In visible wavelengths, earlier studies observed DGL toward regions of low optical depth in high Galactic latitude, and show marginal consistency with a theoretical model assuming ...

Inverse-Compton gamma rays in the galaxy [PDF]

, 1985
Compton gamma rays with energies 1 MeV largely results from scattering between electrons, with energies 100 MeV, and photons in the optical and infrared range and the 2.7 K universal blackbody radiation.

Plasma Turbulence in the Local Bubble

, 2008
Turbulence in the Local Bubble could play an important role in the thermodynamics of the gas that is there. The best astronomical technique for measuring turbulence in astrophysical plasmas is radio scintillation.
