Solar wind energy flux observations in the inner heliosphere: First results from Parker Solar Probe
M. Liu, K. Issautier, N. Meyer-Vernet +15
We investigate the solar wind energy flux in the inner heliosphere using 12-day observations around each perihelion of Encounter One (E01), Two (E02), Four (E04), and Five (E05) of…
Convective Instability Of The Solar Corona: Why The Solar Wind Blows
Joseph Lemaire
Chapman's (1957) conductive model of the solar corona is characterized by a temperature varying as r**(-2/7) with heliocentric distance r. The density distribution in this non-isot…
Half a Century of Kinetic Solar Wind Models
Joseph Lemaire
I outline the development of four generations of kinetic models, starting with Chamberlain's solar breeze exospheric model. It is shown why this first kinetic model did not give ap…
Studying the Lunar-Solar Wind Interaction with the SARA Experiment aboard the Indian Lunar Mission Chandrayaan-1
Anil Bhardwaj, Stas Barabash, M. B. Dhanya +7
The first Indian lunar mission Chandrayaan-1 was launched on 22 October 2008. The Sub-keV Atom Reflecting Analyzer (SARA) instrument onboard Chandrayaan-1 consists of an energetic…
Coronal Inflows and Giant Polar Plumes
R. Pinto, R. Grappin, J. Leorat
We present the first results of simulations of giant polar plumes and coronal flows. We use a 2.5D axisymmetric MHD numerical model of an isothermal corona and slow solar wind. A p…
Solar wind turbulent spectrum from MHD to electron scales
O. Alexandrova, J. Saur, C. Lacombe +5
Turbulent spectra of magnetic fluctuations in the free solar wind are studied from MHD to electron scales using Cluster observations. We discuss the problem of the instrumental noi…
