Ion-Acoustic Waves Associated With Interplanetary Shocks

Fedorov, A.; André, M.; Maksimovic, M. +10 more

Ion-acoustic waves (IAWs) commonly occur near interplanetary (IP) shocks. These waves are important because of their potential role in the dissipation required for collisionless shocks to exist. We study IAW occurrence statistically at different heliocentric distances using Solar Orbiter to identify the processes responsible for IAW generation nea…
