The cider industry has experienced recent growth within the USA and Virginia in 12 particular. However, the sensory characteristics and drivers of consumer acceptance of ciders 13 are largely uncharacterized. Therefore, this work describes the sensory profiles of commercial 14Virginia ciders and links these to consumer acceptance. In study 1, a descriptive analysis (DA)
Electron flux measurements are an important diagnostic for interactions between ultralow-frequency (ULF) waves and relativistic (∼1 MeV) electrons. Since measurements are collected by particle detectors with finite energy channel width, they are affected by a phase mixing process that can obscure these interactions. We demonstrate that ultrahigh-resolution electron measurements from the Magnetic Electron Ion Spectrometer on the Van Allen Probes mission-obtained using a data product that improves the energy resolution by roughly an order of magnitude-are crucial for understanding ULF wave-particle interactions. In particular, the ultrahigh-resolution measurements reveal a range of complex dynamics that cannot be resolved by standard measurements. Furthermore, the standard measurements provide estimates for the ULF flux modulation amplitude, period, and phase that may not be representative of true flux modulations, potentially leading to ambiguous conclusions concerning electron dynamics.
Plain Language Summary Plasma waves with periods of a few minutes interact with high-energyelectrons in the near-Earth space environment. Understanding how the waves affect the electrons is important, as these electrons can potentially damage orbiting satellites. However, these interactions are obscured by a process known as phase mixing where electrons with different energies behave differently yet are mixed together in measurements that have finite energy resolution. We show how a unique data set obtained from National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Van Allen Probes mission can dramatically increase the energy resolution, revealing a range of interactions that are obscured by measurements with lower energy resolution.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
