This project will continue theoretical studies and associated computer simulation and modeling of a range of basic solar wind properties and their interactions with cosmic rays. The PI will study the structure of the interplanetary magnetic field and plasma, emphasizing the effect of the field's structure on cosmic ray and energetic particle acceleration, propagation and anisotropies. In addition, the PI will observe the effect fluid flows such as the solar wind can help accelerate the solar wind near the sun. This understanding can then be used to probe distant, unexplored regions of the solar wind using cosmic ray observations.

该项目将继续对太阳风的一系列基本性质及其与宇宙射线的相互作用进行理论研究和相关的计算机模拟和建模。PI将研究行星际磁场和等离子体的结构，强调磁场结构对宇宙线和高能粒子加速、传播和各向异性的影响。此外，PI还将观察太阳风等流体流动有助于加速太阳附近的太阳风的效果。然后，这种理解可以用来利用宇宙线观测来探测遥远的、未被探索的太阳风区域。
