  2. 1. Ion dynamics and structure of collisionless shocks

    Author : Andreas Johlander; Andris Vaivads; Rami Vainio; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Shock waves are responsible for slowing down and heating supersonic flows. In collisionless space plasmas, shocks are able to accelerate particles to very high energies. We study injection of suprathermal ions at Earth’s quasi- parallel shock using high time resolution data from the Cluster spacecraft. READ MORE

  4. 2. Ion dynamics and structure of collisionless shocks in space

    Author : Andreas Johlander; Andris Vaivads; Robert F. Wimmer-Schweingruber; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fysik med inriktning mot rymd- och plasmafysik; Physics with specialization in Space and Plasma Physics;

    Abstract : Shock waves form when supersonic flows encounter an obstacle. Like in regular gases, shock waves can form in a plasma - a gas of electrically charged particles. Shock waves in plasmas where collisions between particles are very rare are referred to as collisionless shock waves. READ MORE
