Generation and Expansion-Driven Growth of Switchbacks in the Outer Solar Corona and Solar Wind
Nikos Sioulas, Marco Velli, Chen Shi +6
We analyze \emph{Parker Solar Probe} and \emph{Solar Orbiter} measurements of magnetic-field reversals (``switchbacks'') across the Alfvén surface (), where is…

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…

What are Switchbacks?
Zesen Huang, Marco Velli, Yuliang Ding
We present a solitary Alfvén wave model that exhibits nontrivial three-dimensional twisting of open magnetic field lines while preserving constant . Embedded rotational disco…
