We investigate the generation and evolution of switchbacks (SBs), the nature of the sub-
Alfvénic wind observed by the Parker Solar Probe (PSP), and the morphology of the Alfvénic …

We identify more than 10 steady sub-Alfvénic solar wind intervals from the measurements of
the Parker Solar Probe (PSP) from encounter 8 to encounter 14. An analysis of these sub …

We report on the first direct in situ measurements of a fast coronal mass ejection (CME) and
shock in the corona, which occurred on 2022 September 5. In situ measurements from the …

Satellite data analysis of a compressed gyro-scale current sheet prior to magnetic
reconnection in the magnetotail shows that electrostatic lower hybrid waves localized to the …

We identify and examine the solar wind intervals near the sonic critical point (ie, MS∼ 1)
observed by the Parker Solar Probe. The near-subsonic wind intervals show similar …

Slow shocks are introduced to be the main dissipation sites in Petschek reconnection model,
but they are seldom observed in interplanetary space. We report a slow shock pair bounding …

Spacecraft data reveal a nonuniform ambipolar electric field transverse to the magnetic field
in a thin current sheet in Earth's magnetotail that leads to intense E× B velocity shear and …

In general, slow solar wind from the streamer belt forms a high plasma β equatorial plasma
sheet around the heliospheric current sheet (HCS) crossing, namely, the heliospheric …

Through independent research by the Chinese scientists or their international
collaborations, great achievements have been made in interplanetary physics research in …
