Modified temperature-anisotropy instability thresholds in the solar wind.
The proton and electron temperature anisotropies in the solar wind are constrained by the instability thresholds for temperature-anisotropy-driven kinetic plasma instabilities. The modifications to the marginal instability conditions from accounting for the influence of damping connected with the collisional effects in the solar wind plasma are calculated for right- and left-handed polarized pa...
متن کاملWind/SWE observations of firehose constraint on solar wind proton temperature anisotropy
[1] The proton resonant firehose instability may arise in collisionless plasmas in which the proton velocity distribution is approximately bi-Maxwellian with Tkp/T?p > 1, where ? and k denote directions relative to the background magnetic field B . Linear theory and onedimensional simulations predict that enhanced field fluctuations from the proton resonant firehose instability impose a constra...
متن کاملSolar Wind: Global Properties
The most fundamental problem in solar system research is still unsolved: how can the Sun with a surface temperature of only 5800 K heat up its atmosphere to more than a million K? In fact, the solar atmosphere is so hot that not even the Sun’s enormous gravity can contain it. Part of it is continuously evaporating into interplanetary space: the SOLAR WIND. As a highly ionized magnetized plasma ...

. ~ydrodyn~mic expansion of the solar corona is the basis for "solar corpusc ular radiatIOn . The qUiet day coronal temperatures of 1 to 2X 106 OK yield a solar wind of several h';lDdred km/sec and a density of 5 to 50 particles/cm3 at the orbit of Earth.

متن کاملForecasting Solar Wind Speeds
By explicitly taking into account effects of Alfvén waves, I derive from a simple energetics argument a fundamental relation which predicts solar wind (SW) speeds in the vicinity of the earth from physical properties on the sun. Kojima et al. recently found from their observations that a ratio of surface magnetic field strength to an expansion factor of open magnetic flux tubes is a good indica...
