Steepening of Waves at the Duskside Magnetopause
Abstract: Surface waves at the magnetopause flanks typically feature steeper, i.e., more inclined leading (antisunward facing)…
Rippled Quasiperpendicular Shock Observed by the Magnetospheric Multiscale Spacecraft
Abstract: Collisionless shock nonstationarity arising from microscale physics influences shock structure and particle acceleration mechanisms. Nonstationarity…
Fast Ionized X-Ray Absorbers in AGNs
Abstract: We investigate the physics of the X-ray ionized absorbers often identified as warm absorbers (WAs)…
Sub-Femto-g Free Fall for Space-Based Gravitational Wave Observatories: LISA Pathfinder Results
Abstract: We report the first results of the LISA Pathfinder in-flight experiment. The results demonstrate that…
The Gamma-Ray Emitting Radio-Loud Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxy PKS 2004-447 II. The Radio View
Abstract: Context. gamma-ray-detected radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1 (gamma-NLS1) galaxies constitute a small but interesting sample of…
Finite Gyroradius Effects in the Electron Outflow of Asymmetric Magnetic Reconnection
Abstract: We present observations of asymmetric magnetic reconnection showing evidence of electron demagnetization in the electron…
Kinetic Evidence of Magnetic Reconnection Due to Kelvin-Helmholtz Waves
Abstract: The Kelvin-Helmholtz (ICH) instability at the Earth's magnetopause is predominantly excited during northward interplanetary magnetic…
Magnetospheric Multiscale Observations of the Electron Diffusion Region of Large Guide Field Magnetic Reconnection
Abstract: We report observations from the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) satellites of a large guide field magnetic…
Search for Gamma-Ray Emission from the Coma Cluster with Six Years of Fermi-LAT Data
Abstract: We present results from gamma-ray observations of the Coma cluster incorporating six years of Fermi-LAT…
