A hitch-hiker’s guide to stochastic differential equations: solution methods for energetic particle transport in space physics and astrophysics
(Springer, 2017)In this review, an overview of the recent history of stochastic differential equations (SDEs) in application to particle transport problems in space physics and astrophysics is given. The aim is to present a helpful working ... -
Modelling heliospheric current sheet drift in stochastic cosmic ray transport models
(Springer, 2012)Drifts are one of the major cosmic ray modulation mechanisms in the heliosphere. Three types of drifts occur in the background heliospheric magnetic field, namely curvature, gradient and current sheet drifts. The last ... -
Numerical integration of stochastic differential equations: a parallel cosmic ray modulation implementation on Africa’s fastest computer
(Elsevier, 2019)Three-dimensional studies of the transport and modulation of cosmic ray particles in turbulent astrospheres require large-scale simulations using specialized scientific codes. Essentially, a multi-dimensional Fokker-Planck ... -
The effects of magnetic field modifications on the solar modulation of cosmic rays with a SDE-based model
(Elsevier, 2016)A numerical model for the solar modulation of cosmic rays, based on the solution of a set of stochastic differential equations (SDEs), is used to illustrate the effects of modifying the heliospheric magnetic field, ...
