Multi-spacecraft Study of the Solar Wind at Solar Minimum: Dependence on Latitude and Transient Outflows
R. Laker, T. S. Horbury, S. D. Bale +15
The recent launches of Parker Solar Probe (PSP), Solar Orbiter (SO) and BepiColombo, along with several older spacecraft, have provided the opportunity to study the solar wind at m…
Solar wind interaction with comet 67P: impacts of corotating interaction regions
Niklas J. T. Edberg, A. I. Eriksson, E. Odelstad +18
We present observations from the Rosetta Plasma Consortium of the effects of stormy solar wind on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. Four corotating interaction regions (CIRs), where…
CME impact on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko
Niklas J. T. Edberg, M. Alho, M. André +22
We present Rosetta observations from comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko during the impact of a coronal mass ejection (CME). The CME impacted on 5-6 Oct 2015, when Rosetta was about 80…
Mass loading at 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko: a case study
E. Behar, H. Nilsson, G. Stenberg Wieser +3
We study the dynamics of the interaction between the solar wind ions and a partially ionized atmosphere around a comet, at a distance of 2.88 AU from the sun during a period of low…
