Properties of an interplanetary shock observed at 0.07 and 0.7 Astronomical Units by Parker Solar Probe and Solar Orbiter

D. Trotta, A. Larosa, G. Nicolaou +23

The Parker Solar Probe (PSP) and Solar Orbiter (SolO) missions opened a new observational window in the inner heliosphere, which is finally accessible to direct measurements. On Se…

Parker Solar Probe: Four Years of Discoveries at Solar Cycle Minimum

N. E. Raouafi, L. Matteini, J. Squire +54

Launched on 12 Aug. 2018, NASA's Parker Solar Probe had completed 13 of its scheduled 24 orbits around the Sun by Nov. 2022. The mission's primary science goal is to determine the…

Flux ropes and dynamics of the heliospheric current sheet

V. Réville, N. Fargette, A. P. Rouillard +19

Context. Solar Orbiter and PSP jointly observed the solar wind for the first time in June 2020, capturing data from very different solar wind streams, calm and Alfvénic wind as wel…

Magnetic reconnection as a mechanism to produce multiple protonpopulations and beams locally in the solar wind

B. Lavraud, R. Kieokaew, N. Fargette +37

Context. Spacecraft observations early revealed frequent multiple proton populations in the solar wind. Decades of research on their origin have focused on processes such as magnet…

A solar source of Alfvénic magnetic field switchbacks: {\em in situ} remnants of magnetic funnels on supergranulation scales

S. D. Bale, T. S. Horbury, M. Velli +17

One of the striking observations from the Parker Solar Probe (PSP) spacecraft is the prevalence in the inner heliosphere of large amplitude, Alfvénic magnetic field reversals terme…

Plasma Properties, Switchback Patches and Low -Particle Abundance in Slow Alfvénic Coronal Hole Wind at 0.13 au

Thomas Woolley, Lorenzo Matteini, Michael D. McManus +8

The Parker Solar Probe (PSP) mission presents a unique opportunity to study the near-Sun solar wind closer than any previous spacecraft. During its fourth and fifth solar encounter…

Signatures of coronal hole substructure in the solar wind: combined Solar Orbiter remote sensing and in situ measurements

T. S. Horbury, R. Laker, L. Rodriguez +21

Context. The Sun's complex corona is the source of the solar wind and interplanetary magnetic field. While the large scale morphology is well understood, the impact of variations i…

Enhanced proton parallel temperature inside patches of switchbacks in the inner heliosphere

L. D. Woodham, T. S. Horbury, L. Matteini +16

Switchbacks are discrete angular deflections in the solar wind magnetic field that have been observed throughout the heliosphere. Recent observations by Parker Solar Probe (PSP) ha…
