Modeling Ion Acceleration and Transport in Corotating Interaction Regions: The Mass-to-charge Ratio Dependence of the Particle Spectrum

We investigate the role of perpendicular diffusion in shaping the energetic ion spectrum in corotating interaction regions (CIRs), focusing on its mass-to-charge ( A / Q ) ratio dependence. We simulate a synthetic CIR using the EUropean Heliospheric FORecasting Information Asset and model the subseq...
