Measured energy exchange in coronal hole solar wind from its solar origins to the heliosphere

Yeimy J. Rivera, Alin R. Paraschiv, Samuel T. Badman +33

Coordinated ground- and space-based remote observations are used to provide a comprehensive, multi-perspective view of the solar atmosphere that we connect with in situ measurement…

Wave Emission and Absorption in a Near-Sun Proton-Cyclotron Wave Storm

Kristopher G Klein, Daniel Verscharen, Mihailo Martinovic +5

Quantification of energy transport and dissipation in weakly collisional heliospheric plasmas that are far from local thermodynamic equilibrium is an outstanding scientific problem…

Direct Measurement of Polar Coronal Hole-like Solar Wind in its Acceleration Phase

Samuel T. Badman, Yeimy J. Rivera, Michael L. Stevens +38

The early evolution of fast polar coronal hole (PCH) solar wind remains largely unconstrained by in situ measurements. In March 2025, Parker Solar Probe (Parker) at its closest app…

Conversion Layer Controls the Evolution of Magnetic Deflections Near the Alfven Surface

Dominic Payne, Mojtaba Akhavan-Tafti, Joshua Goodwill +10

We examine the statistics of Alfvenic deflections in both sub-Alfvenic and super-Alfvenic solar wind with particular focus on a common parameter that underlies the definition of sw…

In situ Evidence of 5-minute Oscillations from Parker Solar Probe

Zesen Huang, Marco Velli, Olga Panasenco +19

The Sun's surface vibrates in characteristic 5-minute oscillations, known as p-modes, generated by sound waves trapped within the convection zone. Although these oscillations have…

Characterization of the Trans-Alfvénic Region Using Observations from Parker Solar Probe

Subash Adhikari, Riddhi Bandyopadhyay, Joshua Goodwill +14

Close to Earth the solar wind is usually super-Alfvénic, i.e. the speed of the solar wind is much larger than the Alfvén speed. However, in the lower coronal regions, the solar win…

The Temperature Anisotropy and Helium Abundance Features of Alfvénic Slow Solar Wind Observed by Parker Solar Probe, Helios, and Wind Missions

Jia Huang, Davin E. Larson, Tamar Ervin +20

Slow solar wind is typically characterized as having low Alfvénicity, but the occasional occurrence of highly Alfvénic slow solar wind (HASSW) raises questions about its source reg…
