Abstract:Interplanetary collisionless shocks are known to be capable of accelerating charged particles up to hundreds of MeV. However, the underlying acceleration mechanisms are still under debate. We present the dynamic behaviors of energetic protons that are accelerated by an interplanetary shock that was observed with unprecedented high-resolution measurements by the Electron-Proton Telescope sensor of the Energetic Particle Detector suite on board the Solar Orbiter spacecraft on 2021 November 3. We constrain the po… Show more
