On the 1/f spectrum in the solar wind and its connection with magnetic compressibility

Lorenzo Matteini, David Stansby, Timothy Horbury +1

We discuss properties of Alfvénic fluctuations with large amplitude in plasmas characterised by low magnetic field compression. We note that in such systems power laws can not deve…

Alpha particle thermodynamics in the inner heliosphere fast solar wind

D. Stansby, D. Perrone, L. Matteini +2

Plasma processes occurring in the corona and solar wind can be probed by studying the thermodynamic properties of different ion species. However, most in-situ observations of posit…

Diagnosing solar wind origins using in-situ measurements in the inner heliosphere

D. Stansby, T. S. Horbury, L. Matteini

Robustly identifying the solar sources of individual packets of solar wind measured in interplanetary space remains an open problem. We set out to see if this problem is easier to…

Radial evolution of the solar wind in pure high-speed streams: HELIOS revised observations

D. Perrone, D. Stansby, T. Horbury +1

Spacecraft observations have shown that the proton temperature in the solar wind falls off with radial distance more slowly than expected for an adiabatic prediction. Usually, prev…

A new inner heliosphere proton parameter data set from the Helios mission

D. Stansby, C. S. Salem, L. Matteini +1

In the near future, Parker Solar Probe and Solar Orbiter will provide the first comprehensive in-situ measurements of the solar wind in the inner heliosphere since the Helios missi…

Number density structures in the inner heliosphere

D. Stansby, T. S. Horbury

The origins and generation mechanisms of the slow solar wind are still unclear. Part of the slow solar wind is populated by "number density structures", discrete patches of increas…
