Recovering Ion Distribution Functions. I. Slepian Reconstruction of Velocity Distribution Functions from MMS and Solar Orbiter

Plasma velocity distribution functions (VDFs) constitute a fundamental observation of numerous operational and future missions. An efficient parameterization of VDFs is crucial for (1) preserving enough information to investigate macroscopic moments along with kinetic effects, (2) producing smooth d...
