Initiation of Alfvénic turbulence by Alfven wave collisions: A numerical study
S. V. Shestov, Y. M. Voitenko, A. N. Zhukov
In the framework of compressional magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), we numerically studied the commonly accepted presumption that the Alfvénic turbulence is generated by the collisions b…
LUCI onboard Lagrange, the Next Generation of EUV Space Weather Monitoring
M. J. West, C. Kintziger, M. Haberreiter +7
LUCI (Lagrange eUv Coronal Imager) is a solar imager in the Extreme UltraViolet (EUV) that is being developed as part of the Lagrange mission, a mission designed to be positioned a…
Modeling and removal of optical ghosts in the PROBA-3/ASPIICS externally occulted solar coronagraph
S. V. Shestov, A. N. Zhukov, D. B. Seaton
Context: ASPIICS is a novel externally occulted solar coronagraph, which will be launched onboard the PROBA-3 mission of the European Space Agency. The external occulter will be pl…
Nonlinear evolution of short-wavelength torsional Alfven waves
S. V. Shestov, V. M. Nakariakov, A. S. Ulyanov +2
We analyse nonlinear evolution of torsional Alfvén waves in a straight magnetic flux tube filled in with a low- plasma, and surrounded with a plasma of lower density. Such magne…
