Compositional metrics of fast and slow Alfvenic solar wind emerging from coronal holes and their boundaries

Tamar Ervin, Stuart D. Bale, Samuel T. Badman +7

We seek to understand the composition and variability of fast (FSW) and slow Alfvenic solar wind (SASW) emerging from coronal holes (CH). We leverage an opportune conjunction betwe…

The S-Web Origin of Composition Enhancement in the Slow-to-Moderate Speed Solar Wind

B. J. Lynch, N. M. Viall, A. K. Higginson +3

Connecting the solar wind observed throughout the heliosphere to its origins in the solar corona is one of the central aims of heliophysics. The variability in the magnetic field,…

Dropouts of Fully Stripped Ions in the Solar Wind: A Diagnostic for Wave Heating versus Reconnection

John C. Raymond, M. Asgari-Targhi, Maurice L. Wilson +3

The SWICS instrument aboard the ACE satellite has detected frequent intervals in the slow solar wind and interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) in which C6+ and other fully…

Constraining the CME Core Heating and Energy Budget with SOHO/UVCS

Maurice L. Wilson, John C. Raymond, Susan T. Lepri +4

We describe the energy budget of a coronal mass ejection (CME) observed on 1999 May 17 with the Ultraviolet Coronagraph Spectrometer (UVCS). We constrain the physical properties of…

Linking the Sun to the Heliosphere Using Composition Data and Modelling. A Test Case with a Coronal Jet

Susanna Parenti, Iulia Chifu, Giulio Del Zanna +13

Our understanding of the formation and evolution of the corona and the heliosphere is linked to our capability of properly interpreting the data from remote sensing and in-situ obs…

The Solar Orbiter Science Activity Plan: translating solar and heliospheric physics questions into action

I. Zouganelis, A. De Groof, A. P. Walsh +182

Solar Orbiter is the first space mission observing the solar plasma both in situ and remotely, from a close distance, in and out of the ecliptic. The ultimate goal is to understand…

On the production of He of solar origin in the solar wind

Yeimy J. Rivera, Enrico Landi, Susan T. Lepri +1

Solar wind measurements in the heliosphere are predominantly comprised of protons, alphas, and minor elements in a highly ionized state. The majority of low charge states, such as…

Solar physics in the 2020s: DKIST, parker solar probe, and solar orbiter as a multi-messenger constellation

V. Martinez Pillet, A. Tritschler, L. Harra +20

The National Science Foundation (NSF) Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope (DKIST) is about to start operations at the summit of Haleakala (Hawaii). DKIST will join the early science p…

Tracking Filament Evolution in the Low Solar Corona using Remote-Sensing and In-situ Observations

Manan Kocher, Enrico Landi, Susan T. Lepri

In the present work, we analyze a filament eruption associated with an ICME that arrived at L1 on August 5th, 2011. In multi-wavelength SDO/AIA images, three plasma parcels within…

Variations in solar wind fractionation as seen by ACE/SWICS over a solar cycle and the implications for Genesis Mission results

P. Pilleri, D. B. Reisenfeld, T. H. Zurbuchen +5

We use ACE/SWICS elemental composition data to compare the variations in solar wind fractionation as measured by SWICS during the last solar maximum (1999-2001), the solar minimum…

The origin of the 'local' 1/4 keV X-ray flux in both charge exchange and a hot bubble

M. Galeazzi, M. Chiao, M. R. Collier +14

The Solar neighborhood is the closest and most easily studied sample of the Galactic interstellar medium, an understanding of which is essential for models of star formation and ga…

DXL: a sounding rocket mission for the study of solar wind charge exchange and local hot bubble X-ray emission

M. Galeazzi, M. Chiao, M. R. Collier +10

The Diffuse X-rays from the Local galaxy (DXL) mission is an approved sounding rocket project with a first launch scheduled around December 2012. Its goal is to identify and separa…
