Abstract

Collisionless shocks are fundamental processes that are ubiquitous in space plasma physics throughout the Heliosphere and most astrophysical environments. This white paper describes a conceptual mission design to address these outstanding questions and advance our knowledge of the nature of collisionless shocks.
