Shear interaction and acceleration of a corotating stream detected by Parker Solar Probe

Andrea Verdini, Simone Landi, Emanuele Papini +4

Recent analysis of Parker Solar Probe (PSP) and Solar Orbiter data indicates that fluctuations energy is transferred to the bulk flow in fast streams of the solar wind at heliocent…

The effects of expansion and turbulence on the interplanetary evolution of a magnetic cloud

Mattia Sangalli, Andrea Verdini, Simone Landi +1

Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) represent the most extreme solar products, showing complex and dynamic structures when detected in situ. They are often preceded by a shock and carry…

Temperature and density profiles in the corona of main-sequence stars induced by stochastic heating in the chromosphere

Luca Barbieri, Lapo Casetti, Andrea Verdini +1

All but the most massive main-sequence stars are expected to have a rarefied and hot (million-Kelvin) corona like the Sun. How such a hot corona is formed and supported has not bee…

Temperature inversion in a gravitationally bound plasma: Case of the solar corona

Luca Barbieri, Lapo Casetti, Andrea Verdini +1

The temperature of the solar atmosphere increases from thousands to millions of degrees moving from the lower layer (chromosphere) to the outermost one (corona), while the density…

Ion-scale transition of plasma turbulence: Pressure-strain effect

Petr Hellinger, Victor Montagud-Camps, Luca Franci +4

We investigate properties of solar wind-like plasma turbulence using direct numerical simulations. We analyze the transition from large, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) scales to the ion…

Ambipolar electric field and potential in the solar wind estimated from electron velocity distribution functions

Laura Bercic, Milan Maksimovic, Jasper S. Halekas +17

The solar wind escapes from the solar corona and is accelerated, over a short distance, to its terminal velocity. The energy balance associated with this acceleration remains poorl…
