Parker Solar Probe: Four Years of Discoveries at Solar Cycle Minimum

N. E. Raouafi, L. Matteini, J. Squire +54

Launched on 12 Aug. 2018, NASA's Parker Solar Probe had completed 13 of its scheduled 24 orbits around the Sun by Nov. 2022. The mission's primary science goal is to determine the…

Interchange reconnection as the source of the fast solar wind within coronal holes

S. D. Bale, J. F. Drake, M. D. McManus +13

The fast solar wind that fills the heliosphere originates from deep within regions of open magnetic field on the Sun called coronal holes. The energy source responsible for acceler…

Patches of magnetic switchbacks and their origins

Chen Shi, Olga Panasenco, Marco Velli +18

Parker Solar Probe (PSP) has shown that the solar wind in the inner heliosphere is characterized by the quasi omni-presence of magnetic switchbacks ("switchback" hereinafter), loca…

Constraining Global Coronal Models with Multiple Independent Observables

Samuel T. Badman, David H. Brooks, Nicolas Poirier +13

Global coronal models seek to produce an accurate physical representation of the Sun's atmosphere which can be used, for example, to drive space weather models. Assessing their acc…

Evolution of switchbacks in the inner Heliosphere

Anna Tenerani, Nikos Sioulas, Lorenzo Matteini +3

We analyze magnetic field data from the first six encounters of PSP, three Helios fast streams and two Ulysses south polar passes covering heliocentric distances $0.1\lesssim R\les…
