On the Radial Evolution of the Solar Wind : The Source Alignment Method Applied to Parker Solar Probe and Solar Orbiter Observations
Jean-Baptiste Dakeyo, Tamar Ervin, Stuart Bale +10
The properties of the solar wind, as measured in situ throughout the heliosphere, depend both on the characteristics of its coronal source and on the intrinsic processes governing…
Magnetic reconnection-driven energization of protons up to 400 keV at the near-Sun heliospheric current sheet
M. I. Desai, J. F. Drake, T. Phan +22
We report observations of direct evidence of energetic protons being accelerated above ~400 keV within the reconnection exhaust of a heliospheric current sheet (HCS) crossing by NA…
Parker Solar Probe Observations of Energetic Particles in the Flank of a Coronal Mass Ejection Close to the Sun
N. A. Schwadron, Stuart D. Bale, J. Bonnell +32
We present an event observed by Parker Solar Probe at 0.2 au on March 2, 2022 in which imaging and \emph{in situ} measurements coincide. During this event, PSP passed through…
Near subsonic solar wind outflow from an active region
Tamar Ervin, Stuart D. Bale, Samuel T. Badman +10
During Parker Solar Probe (Parker) Encounter 15 (E15), we observe an 18-hour period of near subsonic ( 1) and sub-Alfvénic (SA), <<< 1, slow spee…
