Stellar Coronal and Wind Models: Impact on Exoplanets
arXiv:1709.07800 · doi:10.1007/978-3-319-55333-7_26
Abstract
Surface magnetism is believed to be the main driver of coronal heating and stellar wind acceleration. Coronae are believed to be formed by plasma confined in closed magnetic coronal loops of the stars, with winds mainly originating in open magnetic field line regions. In this Chapter, we review some basic properties of stellar coronae and winds and present some existing models. In the last part of this Chapter, we discuss the effects of coronal winds on exoplanets.
