He IN IMPULSIVE SOLAR FLARES BY ELECTRON FIREHOSE WAVES
A new mechanism for acceleration and enrichment of He during impulsive solar flares is presented. Low-frequency electromagnetic plasma waves excited by the Electron Firehose Instability (EFI) can account for the acceleration of ions up to 1 MeV amu energies as a single stage process. The EFI arises as a direct consequence of the free energy stored in a temperature anisotropy (T e ‖ > T e ⊥) of ...
متن کاملACCELERATION AND ENRICHMENT OF 3He IN IMPULSIVE SOLAR FLARES BY ELECTRON FIREHOSE WAVES
A new mechanism for acceleration and enrichment of He during impulsive solar flares is presented. Low-frequency electromagnetic plasma waves excited by the Electron Firehose Instability (EFI) can account for the acceleration of ions up to 1 MeV amu−1 energies as a single stage process. The EFI arises as a direct consequence of the free energy stored in a temperature anisotropy (T e ‖ > T e ⊥) o...
متن کاملImpulsive Electron Acceleration by Gravitational Waves
We investigate the nonlinear interaction of a strong gravitational wave with the plasma during the collapse of a massive magnetized star and subsequent formation of a black hole or during the merging of neutron star binaries (the central engine). We found that under certain conditions this coupling may result in an efficient energy-space diffusion of particles. We suggest that the atmosphere cr...
متن کاملStochastic particle acceleration by helical turbulence in solar flares
Flaring release of magnetic energy in solar corona is only possible if the magnetic field deviates from a potential one. We show that the linear magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) modes excited on top of the non-potential magnetic field possess a non-zero kinetic helicity. Accordingly, this necessarily results in a noticeable kinetic helicity of the turbulence, composed of these linear modes with variou...
متن کاملParticle Acceleration by Fast Modes in Solar Flares
We address the problem of particle acceleration in solar flares by fast modes which may be excited during the reconnection and undergo cascade and are subjected to damping. We extend the calculations beyond quasilinear approximation and compare the acceleration and scattering by transit time damping and gyroresonance interactions. We find that the acceleration is dominated by the so called tran...
