ESP Spectral Evolution C.M.S. Cohen, R.A. Mewaldt, G.M. Mason, J.C. Kasper, G.C. Ho, M.A. Lee

Study Motivation Saw unrolling of spectra before shock passage Point of unrolling varied with event Thought might be related to shock properties and how well confined ions were to shock region

Oct/Nov 2003 Solid = preshock Open = postshock Rollover point varies in energy from <1 to > 5 MeV/n

Event Selection Started with 400 shocks from 1997-2006 Examined 1 hour O intensities at 0.5, 1, and 3 MeV/n within ± 10 hours of shock Selected shocks with Peak intensities at 0.5 MeV/n within 2 hours of shock passage Peak intensity at 0.5 MeV/n > 2 times the intensity 5 hours before shock All 1 MeV/n intensities correspond to >5 counts 14 events selected

Examples of Selection Selected Not Sel. Not Sel.

Shock Evolution Examples Some shocks show unrolling (left) Some just show ‘lifting’ (right)

More Examples Unrolling point can differ in energy Bottom example has higher value than top example Unrolling ‘rate’ can differ Bottom example is more gradual than top example

Categorization Pre-shock spectra normalized to shock spectra, and again at 24 MeV/n point Cat 1 = unrolling (5 events) Cat 2 = lifting (4 events) Cat 3 = other Delta = reduction factor relative to shock value

Shock Parameters Cat 1 events show ~ correlation expected between power law index and compression ratio (ala DSA) Cat 2 events are harder than DSA predicts

Delta Values Not correlated with density compression ratios

Delta Values Not correlated with density compression ratios Not correlated with Theta but larger for slower shocks

Change in Delta values with energy and time (i.e. unrolling rate) Unrolling rate (between 5 and 2 hours pre-shock) is slower for stronger shocks A sign of better confinement??

Protons Started similar analysis with proton data EPAM GOES Complications because GOES is in different position (so need to time shift data but by how much?) the magnetosphere (so get additional effects)

Good, Bad, Ugly Some events show nice unrolling

Good, Bad, Ugly Some events show nice unrolling Some events show lifting

Good, Bad, Ugly Some events show nice unrolling Some events show lifting Some events EPAM and GOES don’t match

Other Complications Kasper shock parameters Local acceleration vs trapped population along for the ride Richardson and anisotropies may be the answer
