Potential Solar Precursors to Magnetic Switchbacks
Durgesh Tripathi, Maria S. Madjarska, Judy Karpen +9
The paper reviews how large‑scale coronal dynamics and small‑scale solar atmospheric events could act as precursors to the magnetic switchbacks observed by the Parker Solar Probe,…
Evolution and Impact of Switchbacks Throughout the Heliosphere
Alfred Mallet, Chen Shi, Anna Tenerani +23
Magnetic switchbacks are large-amplitude fluctuations in the interplanetary magnetic field, and appear frequently in the near-Sun solar wind explored recently by Parker Solar Probe…
Properties of current sheets in two-dimensional tearing-mediated incompressible magnetohydrodynamic turbulence
Chen Shi, Marco Velli, Nikos Sioulas +1
It is well known that the nonlinear evolution of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence generates current sheets. In the solar wind turbulence, current sheets are frequently observed…
Three dimensional, spherically polarized magnetic fields
Anna Tenerani, Marco Velli
Turbulence in the solar wind is characterized by Alfvénic fluctuations that exhibit spherical polarization, a geometric condition resulting in the nearly constant magnitude of the…
Magnetic switchback formation: a review of proposed mechanisms
Peter F. Wyper, Jonathan Squire, Etienne Pariat +19
Magnetic switchbacks are large amplitude deflections of the magnetic field within the solar wind. They are Alfvénic in character and so are associated with a spike in velocity and…
Solar Wind Classifications at Mars using Machine Learning Techniques
Catherine E. Regan, Silvia Ferro, Austin M. Smith +5
Understanding solar wind variability throughout the heliosphere is essential for fundamental space physics and future exploration of the Moon and Mars. The Mars Atmosphere and Vola…
