Solar Wind Heating Near the Sun: A Radial Evolution Approach
Yogesh, Leon Ofman, Kristopher Klein +19
Characterizing the plasma state in the near-Sun environment is essential to constrain the mechanisms that heat and accelerate the solar wind. In this study, we use Parker Solar Pro…
Alfvénic solar wind intervals observed by Solar Orbiter: Exploiting the capability of the SWA plasma suite and source region investigation
R. D'Amicis, J. M. Raines, S. Benella +32
Fast and slow solar wind have distinct properties linked to their solar sources.Alfvénic slow wind complicates the usual speed-based classification, especially at intermediate spee…
How the Oblique Drift Instability Alters Solar Wind Heating and Constrains the Distribution of Solar Wind Observations
Mihailo M. Martinovic, Kristopher G. Klein, Leon Ofman +6
Ion-driven plasma instability thresholds, derived from linear theory, constrain the distribution of solar observations in parameter space, defining boundaries of stable plasma para…
Observational Constraints on the Radial Evolution of O Temperature and Differential Flow in the Inner Heliosphere
Yeimy J. Rivera, Kristopher G. Klein, Joseph H. Wang +15
Over decades of solar wind observations, heavy ions have been observed to have a higher temperature and flow faster than protons in the solar corona and heliosphere. Remote observa…
Characterizing the Impact of Alfvén Wave Forcing in Interplanetary Space on the Distribution of near-Earth Solar Wind Speeds
B. L. Alterman
Broadly, solar wind source regions can be classified by their magnetic topology as intermittently and continuously open to the heliosphere. Early models of solar wind acceleration…
The Evolution of Heavy Ion Abundances with Solar Activity
B. L. Alterman, Y. J. Rivera, S. T. Lepri +2
When observed at 1 AU, slow solar wind is typically considered to have originated in source regions with magnetic topologies that are intermittently open to the heliosphere. Fast w…
