Collisional thermalization of minor ions in the solar wind
IntroductionAs the solar wind transits through the heliosphere, Coulomb collisions among constituent particles drives it toward local thermodynamic equilibrium. Prior studies of ion collisions in the solar wind have focused on the two most abundant solar wind ions: protons (ionized hydrogen) and α-p...
