Ultraviolet Coronagraph Spectroscopy: A Key Capability for Understanding the Physics of Solar Wind Acceleration
S. R. Cranmer, J. L. Kohl, D. Alexander +21
Understanding the physical processes responsible for accelerating the solar wind requires detailed measurements of the collisionless plasma in the extended solar corona. Some key c…
Electron and proton heating by solar wind turbulence
B. Breech, W. H. Matthaeus, S. R. Cranmer +2
Previous formulations of heating and transport associated with strong magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence are generalized to incorporate separate internal energy equations for ele…
Empirical Constraints on Proton and Electron Heating in the Fast Solar Wind
Steven R. Cranmer, William H. Matthaeus, Benjamin A. Breech +1
We analyze measured proton and electron temperatures in the high-speed solar wind in order to calculate the separate rates of heat deposition for protons and electrons. When compar…
