[HEDS3-01(Invited)] Particle Acceleration and Energy Partition in Turbulent Collisionless Shocks

*Frederico Fiúza1 (1. Physics at Instituto Superior Técnico)

Shock waves produced by violent interactions of supersonic plasma flows with the interstellar medium or planetary magnetospheres are observed to heat the plasma, amplify magnetic fields, and accelerate electrons and protons to relativistic speeds. However, the exact mechanisms that control energy partition in these shocks remain a mystery.
