Exospheric heating by pickup ions at Titan

Advances in Space Research, 2008
Titan has a very extensive atmosphere and exosphere which interact strongly with the corotating magnetospheric plasma. Some of the new pickup ions created in the vicinity of the exosphere will re-impact the upper atmosphere causing additional energy input.

The Acceleration of Pickup Ions

Space Science Reviews, 1996
The well-established association of pickup ions with anomalous cosmic rays shows that acceleration of pickup ions to energies above 1 GeV occurs. At present, diffusive shock acceleration of the pickup ions at the termination shock of the solar wind seems to be the best candidate for acceleration to the high energies of anomalous cosmic rays, accounting

Quasilinear Relaxation of Pickup Interstellar Ions

Space Science Reviews, 1996
The quasilinear relaxation of pickup interstellar helium ions is described in the diffusion shell approximation. It is shown that the Cherenkov damping of Alfven waves due to their refraction in the nonuniform solar wind could inhibit the complete relaxation of pickup helium ions over the bispherical shell.

Search for lunar pickup ions

1998
Abstract During lunar flybys in December 1994 and January 1996 pickup ions, generated by solar photons, solar wind and micrometeoroid impacts, were detected by the SMS experiment on the WIND-S/C in the energy range E = 6.5 - 226 KeV/e. Near the moon the ions have not yet reached their full pickup energy, but they can be identified by the directional ...

Ion-cyclotron wave generation by planetary ion pickup

Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics, 2007
Ion-cyclotron waves play important roles in planetary magnetospheres and are diagnostic of the processes operating in the magnetosphere and of the composition of the plasma producing the waves. At Jupiter, Io's exosphere interacts with the corotating magnetospheric plasma.
