Large gradual solar energetic particle events

M Desai, J Giacalone - Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2016 - Springer
Solar energetic particles, or SEPs, from suprathermal (few keV) up to relativistic (∼∼ few
GeV) energies are accelerated near the Sun in at least two ways:(1) by magnetic …

Diffusive shock acceleration simulations of radio relics

H Kang, D Ryu, TW Jones - The Astrophysical Journal, 2012 - iopscience.iop.org
Recent radio observations have identified a class of structures, so-called radio relics, in
clusters of galaxies. The radio emission from these sources is interpreted as synchrotron …

Electron injection by whistler waves in non-relativistic shocks

MA Riquelme, A Spitkovsky - The Astrophysical Journal, 2011 - iopscience.iop.org
Electron acceleration to non-thermal, ultra-relativistic energies (∼ 10–100 TeV) is revealed
by radio and X-ray observations of shocks in young supernova remnants (SNRs). The …

Turbulence-dominated shock waves: 2D hybrid kinetic simulations

M Nakanotani, GP Zank, LL Zhao - The Astrophysical Journal, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
We investigate the interaction of turbulence with shock waves by performing 2D hybrid
kinetic simulations. We inject force-free magnetic fields upstream that are unstable to the …

At the end of 2020 November, two coronal mass ejections (CMEs) erupted from the Sun and
propagated through the interplanetary medium in the direction of Parker Solar Probe while …

Radio observations of coronal mass ejection initiation and development in the low solar corona

EP Carley, N Vilmer, A Vourlidas - Frontiers in Astronomy and Space …, 2020 - frontiersin.org
Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are large eruptions of plasma and magnetic field from the
low solar corona into the heliosphere. These eruptions are often associated with energetic …

Flare versus shock acceleration of high-energy protons in solar energetic particle events

EW Cliver - The Astrophysical Journal, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
Recent studies have presented evidence for a significant to dominant role for a flare-resident
acceleration process for high-energy protons in large (" gradual") solar energetic particle …

Imaging-spectroscopy of a band-split type II solar radio burst with the Murchison Widefield Array

S Bhunia, EP Carley, D Oberoi… - Astronomy & …, 2023 - aanda.org
Type II solar radio bursts are caused by magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) shocks driven by
