Acceleration of polytropic solar wind: Parker Solar Probe observation and one-dimensional model
Chen Shi, Marco Velli, Stuart D. Bale +3
The acceleration of the solar coronal plasma to supersonic speeds is one of the most fundamental yet unresolved problem in heliophysics. Despite the success of Parker's pioneering…
Magnetic field spectral evolution in the inner heliosphere
Nikos Sioulas, Zesen Huang, Chen Shi +23
Parker Solar Probe and Solar Orbiter data are used to investigate the radial evolution of magnetic turbulence between au. The spectrum is studied as…
Patches of magnetic switchbacks and their origins
Chen Shi, Olga Panasenco, Marco Velli +18
Parker Solar Probe (PSP) has shown that the solar wind in the inner heliosphere is characterized by the quasi omni-presence of magnetic switchbacks ("switchback" hereinafter), loca…
Instabilities in a current sheet with plasma jet
Chen Shi
We study the stability problem of a magnetohydrodynamic current sheet with the presence of a plasma jet. The flow direction is perpendicular to the normal of the current sheet and…
Conservation of Total Wave Action in the Expanding Solar Wind
Zesen Huang, Chen Shi, Marco Velli +1
The conservation of wave action in moving plasmas has been well-known for over half a century. However, wave action is not conserved when multiple wave modes propagate and coexist…
Statistical analysis of intermittency and its association with proton heating in the near Sun environment
Nikos Sioulas, Marco Velli, Rohit Chhiber +9
We use data from the first six encounters of Parker Solar Probe and employ the Partial Variance of Increments () method to study the statistical properties of coherent structu…
