  • This sidetracked the intended analysis, however the observation of high energy particle acceleration is documented in addition Veselovsky has postulated the concept of the turbopause around the Sun based on the dimensionless scaling approach to the analysis of physically distinct radiation MHD and plasma kinetic regimes in the solar wind formation region.
