Abstract Hot and tenuous plasmas have velocity distribution functions (VDFs) significantly different from Maxwellian distributions. Characterizing how these differences impact wave damping and emission necessitates sophisticated methods for determining the associated dielectric plasma response.

X–ray spectroscopy of astrophysical plasmas
We provide a qualitative review of key X-ray spectral diagnostics of astrophysical plasmas. We begin with a brief discussion of the two major types of equilibria, collisional ionization and photoionization, and then consider the behaviour of hydrogen-like, helium-like, iron L-shell and iron K-shell transitions for these separate cases.

ABSTRACT Task‐based programming interfaces introduce a paradigm in which computations are decomposed into fine‐grained units of work known as “tasks”. StarPU is a runtime system originally developed to support task‐based parallelism on on‐premise heterogeneous architectures by abstracting low‐level hardware details and efficiently managing resource ...

Abstract Energetic electron precipitation plays a pivotal role in shaping Earth's radiation belt dynamics and drives significant physical and chemical changes in the upper atmosphere. However, the detailed mechanisms governing the loss of relativistic electrons have remained unclear, largely due to the limited energy coverage and coarse resolution of ...

Shallow Water Magnetohydrodynamics in Plasma Astrophysics. Waves, Turbulence, and Zonal Flows
The purpose of plasma astrophysics is the study and description of the flow of rotating plasma in order to understand the evolution of various objects in the universe, from stars and planetary systems to galaxies and galaxy clusters.

Microphysics in Astrophysical Plasmas [PDF]
Although macroscale features dominate astrophysical images and energetics, the physics is controlled through microscale transport processes (conduction, diffusion) that mediate the flow of mass, momentum, energy, and charge. These microphysical processes manifest themselves in key (all) boundary layers and also operate within the body of the plasma ...

On the Possibility of Driving the Electron Flux Probabilistic Models by the AE Index
Abstract We present the new probabilistic model of the electron fluxes designed to assess the risks of the spacecraft surface charging for missions with near‐equatorial orbits in the inner magnetosphere. It is a second model developed within a frame of the European Space Agency's activity “Plasma Environment Modeling in the Earth's Magnetosphere ...

Abstract Whistler‐mode chorus waves play a key role in driving radiation belt dynamics by enabling both acceleration of electrons to relativistic energies as well as their loss into the atmosphere via pitch‐angle scattering. The ratio between the electron plasma frequency (fpe ${f}_{pe}$) and the electron gyrofrequency (fce ${f}_{ce}$) significantly ...

Using both analytical and numerical means, we demonstrate that linear stability analysis of a hydrodynamic stratified atmosphere or a 1D coronal loop model in nonadiabatic settings features a thermal continuum corresponding to highly localized ...
