Coronal voids and their magnetic nature

J. D. Nölke, S. K. Solanki, J. Hirzberger +68

Extreme ultraviolet (EUV) observations of the quiet solar atmosphere reveal extended regions of weak emission compared to the ambient quiescent corona. The magnetic nature of these…

Deciphering The Slow-rise Precursor of a Major Coronal Mass Ejection

X. Cheng, C. Xing, G. Aulanier +3

Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are explosive plasma phenomena prevalently occurring on the Sun and probably on other magnetically active stars. However, how their pre-eruptive confi…

Picoflare jets power the solar wind emerging from a coronal hole on the Sun

L. P. Chitta, A. N. Zhukov, D. Berghmans +17

Coronal holes are areas on the Sun with open magnetic field lines. They are a source region of the solar wind, but how the wind emerges from coronal holes is not known. We observed…

Beyond small-scale transients: a closer look at the diffuse quiet solar corona

J. Gorman, L. P. Chitta, H. Peter +9

Within the quiet Sun corona imaged at 1 MK, much of the field of view consists of diffuse emission that appears to lack the spatial structuring that is so evident in coronal loops…

Fleeting Small-scale Surface Magnetic Fields Build the Quiet-Sun Corona

L. P. Chitta, S. K. Solanki, J. C. del Toro Iniesta +19

Arch-like loop structures filled with million Kelvin hot plasma form the building blocks of the quiet-Sun corona. Both high-resolution observations and magnetoconvection simulation…

SPICE Connection Mosaics to link the Sun's surface and the heliosphere

T. Varesano, D. M. Hassler, N. Zambrana Prado +28

We present an analysis of the first connection mosaic made by the SPICE instrument on board of the ESA / NASA Solar Orbiter mission on March 2nd, 2022. The data will be used to map…
