Journal ArticleDOI
A three-dimensional plasma and energetic particle investigation for the wind spacecraft
Robert P. Lin,K. A. Anderson,S. Ashford,C. W. Carlson,D. W. Curtis,Robert E. Ergun,Davin Larson,James P. McFadden,Matthew D. McCarthy,George K. Parks,Henri Rème,J. M. Bosqued,J. Coutelier,F. Cotin,C. d'Uston,K. P. Wenzel,T. R. Sanderson,J. P. G. Henrion,J. C. Ronnet,G. Paschmann +19 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used top-hat symmetrical spherical section electrostatic analyzers with microchannel plate detectors to measure ions and electrons from ∼3 eV to 30 keV.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mass spectra of heavy ions near comet Halley
A. Korth,A. K. Richter,Alois Loidl,K. A. Anderson,C. W. Carlson,D. W. Curtis,Robert P. Lin,Henri Rème,J. A. Sauvaud,C. d'Uston,F. Cotin,A. Cros,D. A. Mendis +12 more
TL;DR: The Giotto spacecraft detected the first cometary ions at a distance of about 1.05 million km from the nucleus of comet Halley by using the heavy ion analyzer RPA2-PICCA as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Upstream and magnetosheath energetic ions with energies to ≈2 MeV
R. M. Skoug,Robert Winglee,Michael P. McCarthy,George K. Parks,Robert P. Lin,K. A. Anderson,C. Carlson,Robert E. Ergun,Davin Larson,J. P. McFadden,Henri Rème,J. M. Bosqued,C. d'Uston,T. R. Sanderson,K.-P. Wenzel,R. P. Lepping,Adam Szabo +16 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the first observations of ≃2 MeV ion bursts in the upstream region and the magnetosheath of the WIND spacecraft were presented, which has strong implications for the ion source and acceleration mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling of upstream energetic particle events observed by WIND
Robert Winglee,R. M. Skoug,Michael P. McCarthy,George K. Parks,Robert P. Lin,K. A. Anderson,C. Carlson,Robert E. Ergun,Davin Larson,J. P. McFadden,R. L. Lepping,Adam Szabo,Henri Rème,J. M. Bosqued,C. d'Uston,T. R. Sanderson,K.-P. Wenzel +16 more
TL;DR: In this paper, three-dimensional global fluid simulations in conjunction with particle tracking in global fields are used to investigate the sources of the energetic particle events observed upstream of the bow shock.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Giotto electron plasma experiment
H. Reme,F. Cotin,A. Cros,J L Medale,J. A. Sauvaud,C. d'Uston,Kinsey A. Anderson,C. W. Carlson,D. W. Curtis,R. P. Lin,A. Korth,A. K. Richter,Alois Loidl,D. A. Mendis +13 more
TL;DR: The RPA-Copernic experiment aboard Giotto as mentioned in this paper was designed to measure the three-dimensional distributions of electrons between 10 eV and 30 keV and the composition and distribution, close to the comet, of thermal positive ions in the mass range 10-213 amu.
