Tracking Magnetic Topological Change in a Time-Dependent Coronal Model
Emily I. Mason, Cooper Downs, Roberto Lionello +2
We apply the slip-back mapping method of Titov et al. 2009 and Lionello et al. 2020 to a thermodynamic MHD simulation to track topological changes in the magnetic field at a range…

Magnetic Connectivity in the Time-Dependent Corona and Heliosphere
Roberto Lionello, Cooper Downs, Emily I. Mason +3
Magnetic flux fills the heliosphere, expands outward from the solar corona, and is fundamentally related to the structure and dynamics of the solar corona and solar wind. Open magn…
