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 Temperature, Electron, and Pressure Characteristics of Switchbacks: Parker Solar Probe Observations
Jia Huang, Justin C. Kasper, Davin E. Larson +19
Parker Solar Probe (PSP) observes unexpectedly prevalent switchbacks, which are rapid magnetic field reversals that last from seconds to hours, in the inner heliosphere, posing new…
Effect of Spherical Polarization on the Magnetic Spectrum of the Solar Wind
Corina Dunn, Trevor Bowen, Alfred Mallet +2
Magnetic fluctuations in the solar wind are often observed to maintain constant magnitude of the magnetic field in a manner consistent with spherically-polarized large-amplitude Al…
Prediction and Verification of Parker Solar Probe Solar Wind Sources at 13.3 R
Samuel T. Badman, Pete Riley, Shaela I. Jones +11
Drawing connections between heliospheric spacecraft and solar wind sources is a vital step in understanding the evolution of the solar corona into the solar wind and contextualizin…
The Evolution of the 1/f Range Within a Single Fast-Solar-Wind Stream Between 17.4 and 45.7 Solar Radii
Nooshin Davis, B. D. G. Chandran, T. A. Bowen +7
The power spectrum of magnetic-field fluctuations in the fast solar wind ($V_{\rm SW}> 500 \mbox{ km} \mbox{ s}^{-1}$) at magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) scales is characterized by two d…
Parker Solar Probe Observations of High Plasma Beta Solar Wind from Streamer Belt
Jia Huang, J. C. Kasper, Davin E. Larson +23
In general, slow solar wind from the streamer belt forms a high plasma beta equatorial plasma sheet around the heliospheric current sheet (HCS) crossing, namely the heliospheric pl…
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…
