| Session Description | Energetic particles are an important topic of space plasma physics, encompassing solar physics, interplanetary physics and geophysics. However, many details still remain unknown. Particle acceleration processes include magnetic reconnection, wave-particle interaction, collisionless shock wave, etc., and particle transport processes include adiabatic motion, parallel and perpendicular diffusions, random walk of magnetic field lines, wave-particle interaction, etc.. This session invites contributions that discuss space-borne and ground-based observations, and theory/modeling of the processes of energetic particle acceleration and transport in the heliosphere. |
