Implications of a weak termination shock [PDF]
Space Science Reviews, 1996 Recent observations from the Voyager spacecraft have suggested that the spectrum of the anomalous cosmic ray component is relatively steep at the termination shock, which is believed to be responsible for accelerating these particles. This conclusion argues that the termination shock must be weak, which in turn requires that the upstream Mach number in

An asymmetric solar wind termination shock
Nature, 2008 Voyager 2 crossed the solar wind termination shock at 83.7 au in the southern hemisphere, approximately 10 au closer to the Sun than found by Voyager 1 in the north. This asymmetry could indicate an asymmetric pressure from an interstellar magnetic field, from transient-induced shock motion, or from the solar wind dynamic pressure.

The Heliospheric Termination Shock
Space Science Reviews, 2012The heliospheric termination shock is a vast, spheroidal shock wave marking the transition from the supersonic solar wind to the slower flow in the heliosheath, in response to the pressure of the interstellar medium. It is one of the most-important boundaries in the outer heliosphere.

The termination shock of the solar wind
Space Science Reviews, 1996An overview of the solar wind termination shock is presented including: its place in the heliosphere and its origin; its structure including the role of interstellar pickup ions and galactic and anomalous cosmic rays; its inferred location based on Lyman-α backscatter, Voyager radio signals, and anomalous cosmic rays; its shape and movement.

The Risk of Termination Shock From Solar Geoengineering [PDF]
Earth's Future, 2018 If solar geoengineering were to be deployed so as to mask a high level of global warming, and then stopped suddenly, there would be a rapid and damaging rise in temperatures. This effect is often referred to as termination shock, and it is an influential

Shock and terminal pancreatitis
Pathology - Research and Practice, 198563% of 523 lethal cases of shock showed a DIC-syndrome. First of all the lung was affected with 69% of the cases with DIC-syndrome, followed by the pancreas with 52%. In search of disseminated intravascular coagulation, the pancreas is a very favourable organ since other acute superimposed findings normally don't exist.

Challenges to cosmic ray modeling: From beyond the solar wind termination shock
Advances in Space Research, 2008 Voyager 1 crossed the solar wind termination shock on December 16, 2004 at a distance of 94 AU from the Sun, to become the first spacecraft to explore the termination shock region and to enter the heliosheath, the final heliospheric frontier.

Motion of the heliospheric termination shock at high heliographic latitude
Space Science Reviews, 1995 We expect the mean distance of the heliospheric termination shock to be greater (smaller) at polar latitudes than at equatorial latitudes, depending on whether the mean dynamic pressure of the solar wind is greater or smaller at high latitudes.

Mediation of the heliospheric termination shock by termination-shock-accelerated particles
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2010Energetic particle measurements made by Voyager 2 during its crossing of the heliospheric termination shock had distinctive features of a locally shock‐accelerated component in the energy range between 1 and 3.5 MeV. Intensities of energetic ions rose exponentially upstream of the shock and were accompanied by a deceleration of the bulk plasma flow ...
