Proton Heating by a Proton-Alpha Drift Instability with an Anisotropic Alpha-particle Temperature in a Turbulent Solar-wind Plasma

S. A. Markovskii et al.

Summary: The proton-alpha drift instability is a possible mechanism for the deceleration of alpha particles and proton heating in the solar wind. Through hybrid numerical simulations, it is found that the Alfven modes propagate in both directions and heat the protons perpendicularly to the mean magnetic field, while the fast magnetosonic unstable modes only propagate in the opposite direction of the alpha-particle drift and do not produce the necessary perpendicular proton heating. Turbulence in the solar wind suppresses the Alfven instability but does not invert the direction of the proton heating associated with the fast magnetosonic instability.

Parker Solar Probe Observations of Solar Wind Energetic Proton Beams Produced by Magnetic Reconnection in the Near-Sun Heliospheric Current Sheet

T. D. Phan et al.

Summary: This article reports the observation of reconnection exhausts in the Heliospheric Current Sheet (HCS) by the Parker Solar Probe at close proximity to the Sun. These exhausts accelerated protons and increased their energy, while also causing the leakage of separatrix field lines.

Alpha Particle Temperature Anisotropy in Earth's Magnetosheath

Haley DeWeese et al.

Summary: This study investigates the instability-driven limits on the anisotropy of alpha particles in Earth's magnetosheath using data from the Magnetic Multiscale Mission. The range of temperature anisotropy narrows as plasma beta increases, indicating the presence of kinetic microinstabilities. The data distribution aligns well with the contours of constant growth rate for various instabilities.
