About 4-5% of chondrules are compound: two separate chondrules stuck together. This is commonly believed to be the result of the two component chondrules having collided shortly after forming, while still molten. This allows high velocity…
Adiabatic and non-adiabatic electron dynamics have been proposed to explain electron heating across collisionless shocks. We analyze the evolution of the suprathermal electrons across 310 quasi-perpendicular shocks with $1.7<M_A<48$ using…
