On the Radial Evolution of the Solar Wind : The Source Alignment Method Applied to Parker Solar Probe and Solar Orbiter Observations
Jean-Baptiste Dakeyo, Tamar Ervin, Stuart Bale +10
The properties of the solar wind, as measured in situ throughout the heliosphere, depend both on the characteristics of its coronal source and on the intrinsic processes governing…
Electric fields and waves in the Venus nightside magnetosphere
Forrest Mozer, Oleksiy Agapitov, Stuart Bale +4
On November 6, 2024, the Parker Solar Probe flew past Venus to make the first accurate electric field measurement in the nightside Venusian magnetosphere. To achieve this result, t…
Effect of Spherical Polarization on the Magnetic Spectrum of the Solar Wind
Corina Dunn, Trevor Bowen, Alfred Mallet +2
Magnetic fluctuations in the solar wind are often observed to maintain constant magnitude of the magnetic field in a manner consistent with spherically-polarized large-amplitude Al…
Arguments for the physical nature of the triggered ion-acoustic waves observed on the Parker Solar Probe
Forrest Mozer, Stuart Bale, Paul Kellogg +3
Triggered ion-acoustic waves are a pair of coupled waves observed in the previously unexplored plasma regime near the Sun. They may be capable of producing important effects on the…
Triggered Ion-acoustic Waves
Forrest Mozer, Stuart Bale, Paul Kellogg +4
The Parker Solar Probe is in a solar orbit with a perihelion for orbit 12 at 13.3 solar radii. The electric field experiment on this satellite observes what we call triggered ion-a…
Core Electron Heating By Triggered Ion Acoustic Waves In The Solar Wind
Forrest Mozer, Stuart Bale, Cynthia Cattell +4
Perihelion passes on Parker Solar Probe orbits six through nine have been studied to show that solar wind core electrons emerged from 15 solar radii with a temperature of 55 plus o…
