Prediction and Observation of Electron Instabilities and Phase Space Holes Concentrated in the Lunar Plasma Wake
Recent theory and numerical simulation predicts that the wake of the solar wind flow past the Moon should be the site of electrostatic instabilities that give rise to electron holes. These play an important role in the eventual merging of the wake with the background solar wind. Analysis of measurem...
