Magnetic switchback formation: a review of proposed mechanisms
Peter F. Wyper, Jonathan Squire, Etienne Pariat +19
Magnetic switchbacks are large amplitude deflections of the magnetic field within the solar wind. They are Alfvénic in character and so are associated with a spike in velocity and…
Uniturbulence and Alfvén Wave Solar Model in MPI-AMRVAC
M. McMurdo, T. Van Doorsselaere, N. Magyar +2
The coronal heating problem remains a fundamental challenge in solar physics. While AWSoM-type models (Alfvén Wave Solar Model) have proven highly successful in reproducing the la…
Uniturbulence and Alfven wave solar model
Tom Van Doorsselaere, M. Valeria Sieyra, Norbert Magyar +2
AWSOM-type models (Van der Holst et al. 2014) have been very successful in describing the solar atmosphere by incorporating the Alfven wave driving as extra contributions in the gl…
Can Alfvénic Fluctuations Affect the Correlation and Complexity of Magnetic Fields in Magnetic Ejecta? A Case Study Based on Multi-Spacecraft Measurements at 1~au
Camilla Scolini, Bin Zhuang, Noé Lugaz +4
We investigate whether Alfvénic fluctuations (AFs) can affect the structure of magnetic ejecta (MEs) within interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs). We study an ICME observe…
