Calculation of Field Line Slippage Rates in Coronal Simulations
Valentin Aslanyan, David MacTaggart, Roger B. Scott +6
We present the Universal Slippage calculator (\texttt{USlip}), an extension of the Universal Fieldline Tracer (\texttt{UFiT}), that computes magnetic field line slippage rates from…

Solar Wind Dependence on Source Distance from the Open-Closed Boundary
Chloe P. Wilkins, David I. Pontin, Anthony R. Yeates +2
The origin and variability of the slow solar wind remains an open question in solar physics, but is thought to be closely linked to dynamics at the Sun's open-closed magnetic flux…

The Sun's open-closed flux boundary and the origin of the slow solar wind
Chloe P. Wilkins, David I. Pontin, Anthony R. Yeates +3
The Sun's open-closed flux boundary (OCB) separates closed and open magnetic field lines, and is the site for interchange magnetic reconnection processes thought to be linked to th…
