The Far- and Lyman-Ultraviolet Imaging Demonstrator (FLUID) is a rocket-borne arcsecond-level ultraviolet (UV) imaging instrument covering four bands between 92 -- 193 nm. FLUID wi…
Synergies between interstellar dust and heliospheric science with an Interstellar Probe
Veerle J. Sterken, Silvan Hunziker, Kostas Dialynas +40
We discuss the synergies between heliospheric and dust science, the open science questions, the technological endeavors and programmatic aspects that are important to maintain or d…
Fundamentals of impulsive energy release in the corona
Albert Y. Shih, Lindsay Glesener, Säm Krucker +30
It is essential that there be coordinated and co-optimized observations in X-rays, gamma-rays, and EUV during the peak of solar cycle 26 (~2036) to significantly advance our unders…
Small Platforms, High Return: The Need to Enhance Investment in Small Satellites for Focused Science, Career Development, and Improved Equity
James Paul Mason, Robert G. Begbie, Maitland Bowen +33
In the next decade, there is an opportunity for very high return on investment of relatively small budgets by elevating the priority of smallsat funding in heliophysics. We've lear…
Magnetic Energy Powers the Corona: How We Can Understand its 3D Storage & Release
Amir Caspi, Daniel B. Seaton, Roberto Casini +12
The coronal magnetic field is the prime driver behind many as-yet unsolved mysteries: solar eruptions, coronal heating, and the solar wind, to name a few. It is, however, still poo…
Improving Multi-Dimensional Data Formats, Access, and Assimilation Tools for the Twenty-First Century
Daniel B. Seaton, Amir Caspi, Roberto Casini +12
Heliophysics image data largely relies on a forty-year-old ecosystem built on the venerable Flexible Image Transport System (FITS) data standard. While many in situ measurements us…
