PRICM3: A novel Polarization Ratio framework for three-dimensional CME reconstruction

Yara De Leo, Manuela Temmer, Fernando M. López +15

Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are inherently three-dimensional (3D), but traditional white-light coronagraphs provide only two-dimensional (2D) projections. While the Polarization…

A view of the evolution of a CME and the associated wave-trains at high spatial and temporal resolution

G. Russano, Y. De Leo, F. Frassati +13

Context. Studying the kinematic and dynamic evolution of fast eruptive events from the middle to high solar corona is a primary objective of the Metis coronagraph on Solar Orbiter.…

First detection of acoustic-like flux in the middle solar corona

V. Andretta, L. Abbo, G. Jerse +28

Waves are thought to play a significant role in the heating of the solar atmosphere and the acceleration of the wind. Among the many types of waves observed in the Sun, the so-call…

Metis Observations of Alfvénic Outflows Driven by Interchange Reconnection in a Pseudostreamer

P. Romano, P. Wyper, V. Andretta +33

This study presents observations of a large pseudostreamer solar eruption and, in particular, the post-eruption relaxation phase, as captured by Metis onboard the Solar Orbiter on…

Study of solar brightness profiles in the 18-26 GHz frequency range with INAF radio telescopes II. Evidence for coronal emission

M. Marongiu, A. Pellizzoni, S. Righini +43

One of the most important objectives of solar physics is the physical understanding of the solar atmosphere, the structure of which is also described in terms of the density (N) an…

Eruptive events with exceptionally bright emission in HI Ly-alpha observed by the Metis coronagraph

G. Russano, V. Andretta, Y. De Leo +29

Metis, the coronagraph on board Solar Orbiter, provides for the first time coronagraphic imaging in the ultraviolet HI Ly-alpha line and, simultaneously, in polarized visible light…
