Cometary plasma processes

Johnstone, Alan D.

The present conference on cometary plasma processes encompasses cometary analogies of solar-wind interactions with planets, cometary plasma observations and simulations, disconnection events in Comet Halley, the spectrum and energy of solar-wind turbulence related to comets, and observations of the velocity distributions of pickup ions and ion flu…

Energetic water group ion fluxes (E_H2O greater than 60 keV) in a quasiperpendicular and a quasiparallel shock front as observed during the Giotto-Halley encounter

Neubauer, F. M.; Daly, P. W.; Wenzel, K. -P. +5 more

Energetic water-group ions recorded by the Energetic Particle Analyzer/Energetic Particle Onset Admonitor (EPA/EPONA) and the Johnstone Plasma Analyzer (JPA) experiment aboard Giotto, as well as corresponding magnetic field measurements obtained, especially at the quasi-perpendicular inbound and quasi-parallel outbound bow shocks of Comet Halley, …
