In Situ Observation of Electron Acceleration by a Double Layer in the Bow Shock

In Situ Observation of Electron Acceleration by a Double Layer in the Bow Shock

The importance of the electric potential along the field direction in the acceleration of electrons in the quasi-perpendicular bow shock has been proposed. Nevertheless, the mechanism by which electrons are accelerated in the bow shock remains unclear from the perspective of in situ observation. In...
