Evidence for the Helicity Barrier from Measurements of the Turbulence Transition Range in the Solar Wind
Data from NASA's Parker Solar Probe reveal that a barrier to the transfer of energy often forms in the solar wind, limiting energy reaching small scales and helping explain why solar wind protons are ...

Magnetosheath Jets Associated With a Solar Wind Rotational Discontinuity in a Hybrid‐Vlasov Simulation
We conduct a 2D hybrid-Vlasov simulation of the interaction between Earth's bow shock and a solar wind rotational discontinuity
Magnetosheath jets that form during the shock-discontinuity interac...

Had a fun #EGU25 and lots of discussions at my poster in the collisionless shock session. Always a delight to meet my international #heliopysics colleagues and friends!

Jets were recently found at Mars, and we made a statistical study, using data from the Maven spacecraft, to find out more about them. You may read the paper here: doi.org/10.1051/0004...

Jets Downstream of Collisionless Shocks: Recent Discoveries and Challenges - Space Science Reviews
Plasma flows with enhanced dynamic pressure, known as magnetosheath jets, are often found downstream of collisionless shocks. As they propagate through the magnetosheath, they interact with the surrou...
