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 Magnetic Switchbacks in the Near-Sun Solar Wind
Samuel T. Badman, Naïs Fargette, Lorenzo Matteini +24
Magnetic switchbacks are fluctuations in the solar wind in which the interplanetary magnetic field sharply deflects away from its background direction so as to create folds in magn…
Surface Waves at Switchback Boundaries in the Young Solar Wind from Parker Solar Probe Observations
Kyung-Eun Choi, Oleksiy V. Agapitov, Nina Bizien +2
Switchbacks (SBs) are localized magnetic field deflections in the solar wind, marked by abrupt changes in the magnetic field direction relative to the ambient solar wind. Observati…
Tracing magnetic switchbacks to their source: An assessment of solar coronal jets as switchback precursors
Nina Bizien, Clara Froment, Maria S. Madjarska +2
The origin of large-amplitude magnetic field deflections in the solar wind, known as magnetic switchbacks, is still under debate. These structures, which are ubiquitous in the obse…
