Cosmic Ray Transport in Heliospheric Magnetic Structures. I. Modeling Background Solar Wind Using the Cronos Magnetohydrodynamic Code

Abstract: The transport of energetic particles such as Cosmic Rays is governed by the properties of the plasma being traversed. While these properties are rather poorly known for galactic and interstellar plasmas due to the lack of in situ measurements, the heliospheric plasma environment has been probed by spacecraft for decades and provides a unique opportunity for testing transport theories. Of particular interest for the 3D heliospheric transport of energetic particles are structures such as corotating interaction r… Show more

“…At the same time, comparisons between simulated results and multipoint spacecraft data have also been implemented by a variety of studies. Some of these studies take advantage of special constellation of spacecraft to test a model's ability to reproduce certain phenomena (e.g., Broiles et al, ; Wiengarten et al, ). Other studies are aimed to generally assess model's validity beyond the L1 point, such as at the position of other planets (e.g., Shiota et al, ), inside the Earth's orbit (e.g., Pahud et al, ) and away from the ecliptic plane (e.g., Jian et al, ).…”

“…The quantity around which the empirical model is built is the solar wind speed v, and is obtained through a given function of the magnetic field properties: v = v(f, d). Several different forms for specifying the wind speed have been presented in the literature (e.g., Arge & Pizzo, 2000;Arge 2003;Riley et al, 2001;Owens et al, 2008;Detman et al, 2006;Wiengarten et al, 2014;McGregor et al, 2011).…”

“…As pointed out in the first paper of this series (Wiengarten et al 2014, hereinafter Paper I), the understanding and appropriate modeling of the transport of energetic charged particles in turbulent magnetic fields remains one of the longstanding challenges in astrophysics and space physics. Despite the progress achieved during recent years (for recent reviews, see, e.g., Giacalone 2013;Schlickeiser 2015;Snodin et al 2016), the corresponding theories have not yet matured into a coherent, (self-)consistent, and generally accepted state.…”
