A parametric study of solar wind properties and composition using fluid and kinetic solar wind models
Paul Lomazzi, Alexis P. Rouillard, Michael A. Lavarra +7
The physical processes in the solar corona that shape the solar wind remain an active research topic. Modeling efforts have shown that energy and plasma exchanges near the transiti…
Magnetized winds of M-type stars and star-planet magnetic interactions: uncertainties and modeling strategy
Victor Réville, Jamie M. Jasinski, Marco Velli +6
M-type stars are the most common stars in the universe. They are ideal hosts for the search of exoplanets in the habitable zone (HZ), as their small size and low temperature make t…
On stellar hotspots due to star-planet magnetic interactions: How much power can actually be transmitted to the chromosphere?
Arghyadeep Paul, Antoine Strugarek, Victor Réville
Star-Planet Magnetic Interactions (SPMI) have been proposed as a mechanism for generating stellar hot-spots with energy outputs on the order of watts. This interaction…
Dominance of 2-Minute Oscillations near the Alfvén Surface
Zesen Huang, Marco Velli, Chen Shi +11
Alfvén waves, considered one of the primary candidates for heating and accelerating the fast solar wind, are ubiquitous in spacecraft observations, yet their origin remains elusiv…
