摘要
The role of the quasi-parallel shock in the development and testing of theories of particle acceleration is discussed. A standard model was developed in which the quasi-parallel shock transition was viewed as a patchwork of magnetic field enhancements, which grew from the interaction between upstream waves in the plasma frame and a gradient in the supra-thermal particle pressure. These magnetic field enhancements were termed SLAMS (short large amplitude magnetic structure) and were proposed to be the building blocks of the shock. The overall ordering of transitions indicate anti-sunward convection, but sometimes the ordering varies between leading and trailing edges and also between pulsations.
