Equation of State of the Kappa-Distributed Solar Wind Particles in the Earth’s Magnetopause

We provide a non-adiabatic equation of state of a space plasma based on the kappa distribution. Our formulation generalizes the polytropic gamma index. An analytic expression is deduced for gamma. Then, the equation of state is derived. The model is applied to describe the electron solar wind in the...
