Axial-Dipole and Equatorial-Dipole Coronal Holes: Congruent Magnetic Geometry, Divergent Evolution

Olga A. Panasenco, Yi-Ming Wang, Samuel T. Badman +2

While the Sun's polar fields reverse, the axial dipole is weak and low-latitude coronal holes are common. Equatorial-dipole coronal holes (EDCHs) appear when the equatorial dipole…

Direct Measurement of Polar Coronal Hole-like Solar Wind in its Acceleration Phase

Samuel T. Badman, Yeimy J. Rivera, Michael L. Stevens +38

The early evolution of fast polar coronal hole (PCH) solar wind remains largely unconstrained by in situ measurements. In March 2025, Parker Solar Probe (Parker) at its closest app…

Sungrazer comets as analogs of star-planet magnetic interactions

L-S. Guité, A. Strugarek, A. J. Finley +5

Star-planet magnetic interactions (SPMIs) can transfer energy from an exoplanet to its host star via Alfvén waves when the planet orbits within a sub-Alfvénic stellar wind. Similar…

Chromospheric dynamics and turbulence regulate the solar FIP effect

Andy S. H. To, J. Martin Laming, Jeffrey Reep +1

Elemental abundance variations in the solar corona, commonly characterised by First Ionisation Potential (FIP) bias, provide crucial diagnostics of chromospheric processes. The pon…

Decomposing wave activity in the solar atmosphere: Shocks, jets and swirls in the quiet Sun

George Cherry, Boris Gudiksen, Adam J. Finley +1

Context. There remains much mystery about how or if wave-energy in the photosphere can be transferred sufficiently upwards through the solar atmosphere to contribute to coronal hea…

Reconstructing the Sun's Alfvén surface and wind braking torque with Parker Solar Probe

Adam J. Finley

The Alfvén surface -- where the solar wind exceeds the local Alfvén speed as it expands into interplanetary space -- is now routinely probed by NASA's Parker Solar Probe (PSP) in t…
