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…

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…

Coupling Photosphere and Corona: Linear and Turbulent Regimes

A. Verdini, R. Grappin, M. Velli

In a recent work Grappin et al. [1] have shown that low- frequency movements can be transmitted from one footpoint to the other along a magnetic loop, thus mimicking a friction eff…

Turbulence, Energy Transfers and Reconnection in Compressible Coronal Heating Field-line Tangling Models

R. B. Dahlburg, A. F. Rappazzo, M. Velli

MHD turbulence has long been proposed as a mechanism for the heating of coronal loops in the framework of the Parker scenario for coronal heating. So far most of the studies have f…
