A new source alignment technique applied to PSP and SO data reveals the solar wind speed increases by an average of 45% per radial decade between the spacecraft, indicating ongoing acceleration beyond 15 solar radii.
Tsallis q-exponential distributions arise by minimizing a free energy built from a self-consistency entropy defined via a nonlinear operator Omega, with q = alpha + beta obtained directly from the operator's fixed-point structure.
Coupled entropy maximized by coupled stretched exponentials is the unique universal entropy meeting scale-specific uncertainty measurement and Hanel-Thurner extensivity requirements.
Numerical study showing that increased loss-cone features in bi-kappa ion distributions decrease firehose growth rates and increase ion-cyclotron growth rates, with additional effects from electron anisotropy and drift.
A sensitivity study shows Tsallis q-distributions alter ionization rates for He, Li, and Be, with q<1 suppressing and q>1 enhancing low-temperature rates, while separating cross-section and EEDF uncertainties and releasing the code.
