On the origin of the dominant waves in the extended solar corona

Forrest Mozer, Oleksiy Agapitov, Orlando Romeo +2

The extended solar corona at 10-30 solar radii is essentially devoid of all waves below 100 kHz other than triggered ion acoustic waves (TIAW), which consist of a low frequency ele…

Plasma instability in the front of ejected energetic electrons and Type III solar radiobursts

Vladimir Krasnoselskikh, Immanuel Christopher Jebaraj, Tom Robert Franck Cooper +7

Type III radio bursts are a signature of the flux of near-relativistic electrons ejected during solar flares. These bursts are frequently observed by spacecraft such as the Parker…
