Pickup protons at quasi-perpendicular shocks: full particle electrodynamic simulations

We have performed 3 one-dimensional full particle electromagnetic simulations of a quasi-perpendicular shock with the same Alfvén Mach number <I>M<sub>A</sub></I>~5, shock normal-magnetic field angle &Theta;<sub><I>Bn</I></sub>=87&deg; and i...
