Observations of Preferential Heating and Acceleration of α-particles in the Young Solar Wind by Parker Solar Probe

Remote sensing observations of the nascent solar wind in the solar corona imply that heavy ions are often faster and hotter than the plasma protons. In situ observations of the near-Earth solar wind with low collisional age show that hotter and faster states of heavy ions usually do not occur at the...
