Is the solar wind termination shock a cosmic-ray mediated shock?

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2006
Based on observations near Earth’s orbit with the CELIAS/STOF sensor on board SOHO and with the ACE magnetometer, and on the model of Zank et al. we calculate the evolution of transport parameters of energetic particles over heliocentric distance.

Energetic particles near and beyond the solar-wind termination

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2006
A global picture of the transport and acceleration of energetic particles in the heliosphere has evolved over the last few decades, which has successfully explained many features of the modulation of galactic cosmic rays and the transport of anomalous cosmic rays and their acceleration by the solar‐wind termination shock.

The Longitudinal Distribution of Anomalous Hydrogen near the Solar Wind Termination Shock

Advances in Space Research, 1993
Gasdynamic calculations show that the solar wind termination shock has a prolate shape. Consequently, the angle between the shock normal vector and the magnetic field lines varies with the variation of longitude. Near the ecliptic, the minimum speed for an upstream ion to be reflected by the shock, or for a downstream ion to overtake the shock ...

Acceleration of galactic and Jovian electrons at the heliospheric solar wind termination shock

Advances in Space Research, 1997
Abstract In 1973, with the aid of the Pioneer 10 spacecraft, it was discovered that the Jovian (Jupiter) magnetosphere at 5 AU is a relatively strong source of electrons with energies up to even ∼100 MeV. The most recent direct observational confirmation was in 1992 with the Ulysses spacecraft.

Possible crossing of the termination shock in the solar wind by the Voyager 1 spacecraft

Astronomy Letters, 2004
The solution of the classical problem of two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) interaction between two shocks (the angle between the interacting shocks and the slope of the magnetic field are arbitrary) obtained by Pushkar' (1995) is applied to the problem of interaction between interplanetary shocks and the solar wind termination shock (TS).

The Injection, Acceleration, and Dynamical Influence of Interstellar Pickup Ions at the Solar Wind Termination Shock

Astrophysics and Space Science, 1998
The interaction of interstellar pickup ions with the solar wind termination shock is reviewed and assessed. The pickup ions mass and momentum load the wind and increase its pressure, effects which decrease the strength of the shock and its distance from the Sun.
