The formation of the ion seed population at quasi-parallel shocks in space plasma
Collisionless shocks in space plasmas are known to be capable of accelerating particles to very high energies. Particles are accelerated through a process called Fermi acceleration. However, this process can only act on particles with higher than thermal (suprathermal) energies. This population of s...
