New Publication “Implications of weak rippling of the shock ramp on the pattern of the electromagnetic field and ion distributions” by Michael Gedalin et al. May 16, 2022 - Collisionless shocks undergo structural changes with the increase of Mach number. Observations and numerical simulations indicate development of time-dependent rippling.… Continue reading
