The solar-wind angular-momentum flux observed during Solar Orbiter's first orbit
Daniel Verscharen, David Stansby, Adam J. Finley +19
Aims: We present the first measurements of the solar-wind angular-momentum (AM) flux recorded by the Solar Orbiter spacecraft. Our aim is the validation of these measurements to su…
