Charting the Interstellar Magnetic Field Causing the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (ibex) Ribbon of Energetic Neutral Atoms
The interstellar magnetic field (ISMF) near the heliosphere is a fundamental component of the solar galactic environment that can only be studied using polarized starlight. The results of an ongoing survey of the linear polarizations of local stars are analyzed with the goal of linking the ISMF that shapes the heliosphere to the nearby field in interstellar space. We present new results on the ...
متن کاملEosinophilic Oesophagitis: Current Understanding and Future Directions
Eosinophilic oesophagitis (EoE) is an emerging disorder that manifests clinically with characteristic symptoms of oesophageal dysfunction and histologically by tissue eosinophilia. This chronic immunemediated oesophageal disease represents a response primarily to food antigens. The incidence of EoE is escalating in both adults and children. This rise stems not only from heightened recognition b...
متن کاملintracranial pressure and its relationship to glaucoma: current understanding and future directions
retrospective and prospective studies looking at the role of cerebrospinal fluid pressure (csfp)/intracranial pressure (icp) have stimulated new theories and hypotheses regarding the underlying causal events for glaucoma. most recently, studies supporting a low csfp/icp as a risk factor for glaucoma have been published. this review summarizes the current understanding of csfp/icp and its potent...
متن کاملHELIOSPHERIC NEUTRAL ATOM SPECTRA BETWEEN 0.01 AND 6 keV FROM IBEX
Since 2008 December, the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has been making detailed observations of neutrals from the boundaries of the heliosphere using two neutral atom cameras with overlapping energy ranges. The unexpected, yet defining feature discovered by IBEX is a Ribbon that extends over the energy range from about 0.2 to 6 keV. This Ribbon is superposed on a more uniform, globally ...
متن کاملObservations and Interpretations of Energetic Neutral Hydrogen Atoms from the December 5, 2006 Solar Event
We discuss recently reported observations of energetic neutral hydrogen atoms (ENAs) from an X9 solar flare/coronal mass ejection event on 5 December 2006, located at E79. The observations were made by the Low Energy Telescopes (LETs) on STEREO A and B. Prior to the arrival of the main solar energetic particle (SEP) event at Earth, both LETs observed a sudden burst of 1.6 to 15 MeV energetic ne...
