Magnetograph Saturation and the Open Flux Problem

Y. -M. Wang, R. K. Ulrich, J. W. Harvey

Extrapolations of line-of-sight photospheric field measurements predict radial interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) strengths that are factors of ~2--4 too low. To address this "ope…

Coronal Mass Ejections and the Solar Cycle Variation of the Sun's Open Flux

Y. -M. Wang, N. R. Sheeley

The strength of the radial component of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF), which is a measure of the Sun's total open flux, is observed to vary by roughly a factor of two ove…

Further Evidence for Looplike Fine Structure inside "Unipolar" Active Region Plages

Y. -M. Wang, I. Ugarte-Urra, J. W. Reep

Earlier studies using extreme-ultraviolet images and line-of-sight magnetograms from the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) have suggested that active region (AR) plages and strong n…

Observations of Slow Solar Wind from Equatorial Coronal Holes

Y. -M. Wang, Y. -K. Ko

Because of its distinctive compositional properties and variability, low-speed ( km s) solar wind is widely believed to originate from coronal streamers, unlik…

Small-scale Flux Emergence, Coronal Hole Heating, and Flux-tube Expansion: A Hybrid Solar Wind Model

Y. -M. Wang

Extreme-ultraviolet images from the Solar Dynamics Observatory often show looplike fine structure to be present where no minority-polarity flux is visible in magnetograms, suggesti…
