- Summary:
- The acceleration of energetic ions in interplanetary magnetosonic fast-mode shock waves was studied via analytical modeling and numerical simulations. An analytical model that combines both the shock drift and compressional acceleration mechanisms is presented. The analytical predictions of the model are shown to be in good agreement with numerical simulation results.
