Understanding how Coronal Heating and Magnetic Field Scaling Affect Global Properties of the Low and Middle Corona
Caroline L. Evans, Cooper Downs, Donald Schmit
The magnetic field of the Sun is a key driver of coronal heating and solar wind acceleration. In tandem, these influence the observable morphology of the corona, along with definin…
Quantifying how Surface Complexity Influences Properties of the Solar Corona and Solar Wind
Caroline L. Evans, Cooper Downs, Donald Schmit
The Sun's magnetic field is a key driver in coronal heating and consequently solar wind acceleration. Remote measurement of the photosphere provides the magnetic surface boundary c…
Identifying Spicules in Mg II: Statistics and Comparisons with Hα
Vicki L. Herde, Souvik Bose, Phillip C. Chamberlin +4
The Sun's chromosphere is a critical region to understand when considering energy and mass deposition into the transition region and corona, but many of the smaller, faster events…
The Solar eruptioN Integral Field Spectrograph
Vicki L. Herde, Phillip C. Chamberlin, Don Schmit +17
The Solar eruptioN Integral Field Spectrograph (SNIFS) is a solar-gazing spectrograph scheduled to fly in the summer of 2025 on a NASA sounding rocket. Its goal is to view the sola…
