A STUDY OF THE GEOSPACE RESPONSE TO DYNAMIC SOLAR WIND USING THE LYON-FEDDER-MOBARRY GLOBAL MHD SIMULATION
(2018-05-14)As the wind from the Sun advances towards Earth, it interacts with Earth’s magnetic field. This solar wind carries with it a magnetic field, called the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF). Energy and momentum are transferred ... -
Relation Between Solitary Wave Occurrence and Solar Wind Parameters During the Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability
(2023-08-07)The Kelvin-Helmholtz instability (KHI) is an important mechanism whereby the solar wind transports energy and momentum into the magnetosphere. One unresolved topic is the role of kinetic phenomena and turbulence in mediating ...
