Correlated Spatiotemporal Evolution of Extreme-Ultraviolet Ribbons and Hard X-rays in a Solar Flare

Stephen J. Naus, Jiong Qiu, C. Richard DeVore +4

We analyze the structure and evolution of ribbons from the M7.3 SOL2014-04-18T13 flare using ultraviolet (UV) images from IRIS and SDO/AIA, magnetic data from SDO/HMI, hard X-ray (…

On the origin of switchbacks observed in the solar wind

Forrest S. Mozer, Stuart Bale, John Bonnell +3

The origin of switchbacks in the solar wind is discussed in two classes of theory that differ in the location of the source being either in the transition region near the Sun or in…

Switchbacks as signatures of magnetic flux ropes generated by interchange reconnection in the corona

J. F. Drake, O. Agapitov, M. Swisdak +10

The structure of magnetic flux ropes injected into the solar wind during reconnection in the coronal atmosphere is explored with particle-in-cell simulations and compared with in s…

Sunward propagating whistler waves collocated with localized magnetic field holes in the solar wind: Parker Solar Probe observations at 35.7 Sun radii

O. V. Agapitov, T. Dudok de Wit, F. S. Mozer +21

Observations by the Parker Solar Probe mission of the solar wind at about 35.7 solar radii reveal the existence of whistler wave packets with frequencies below 0.1 f/fce (20-80 Hz…

Dynamics of double layers, ion acceleration and heat flux suppression during solar flares

T. C. Li, J. F. Drake, M. Swisdak

Observations of flare-heated electrons in the corona typically suggest confinement of electrons. The confinement mechanism, however, remains unclear. The transport of coronal hot e…

Suppression of energetic electron transport in flares by double layers

T. C. Li, J. F. Drake, M. Swisdak

During flares and coronal mass ejections, energetic electrons from coronal sources typically have very long lifetimes compared to the transit times across the systems, suggesting c…

The Acceleration of Ions in Solar Flares During Magnetic Reconnection

Kalman Knizhnik, Marc Swisdak, James F. Drake

The acceleration of solar flare ions during magnetic reconnection is explored via particle-in-cell simulations that self-consistently follow the motions of both protons and par…
