Magnetic field models from energetic particle data at Neptune
The locations of features in the Voyager 2 energetic particle data from Neptune are combined with uncertainties n the multipole expansion f the planetary magnetic field to derive new magnetic field models that are consistent both with various interpretations of the particle features and with the magnetic field data. While assumptions as to the origin of the features must be made, they do not pr...
متن کاملObservational constraints on energetic particle diffusion in young SNRs: amplified magnetic field and maximum energy
Constraints on the diffusion and acceleration parameters in five young supernova remnants (SNRs) are derived from the observed thickness of their X-ray rims, as limited by the synchrotron losses of the highest energy electrons, assuming uniform and isotropic turbulence. From a joint study of the electrons diffusion and advection in the downstream medium of the shock, it is shown that the magnet...
متن کاملMagnetic Field Optimization From Limited Data
When a sensor coil is placed in the field of an electromagnetic transmitter, a voltage is induced and may be measured. The amplitude of this voltage depends on the distance from the transmitter and the angle between the axes of the transmitter and the sensor. This relationship between the state of the coil and the voltages, known as the dipole model, can be exploited to track sensor coils in th...
متن کاملFormation of hard power laws in the energetic particle spectra resulting from relativistic magnetic reconnection.
Using fully kinetic simulations, we demonstrate that magnetic reconnection in relativistic plasmas is highly efficient at accelerating particles through a first-order Fermi process resulting from the curvature drift of particles in the direction of the electric field induced by the relativistic flows. This mechanism gives rise to the formation of hard power-law spectra in parameter regimes wher...
متن کاملSpaceborne Energetic Particle Instrumentation
The primary thrust of the APL space research program is to develop an understanding of the behavior and ultimate sources of the magnetic and electric fields, plasmas, and energetic particles that permeate the cosmos. We now know, for example, that the solar wind-a fully ionized hydrogen gas moving outward from the sun through the solar system at speeds of many hundreds of kilometers per second-...
