Picoflare jets power the solar wind emerging from a coronal hole on the Sun

L. P. Chitta, A. N. Zhukov, D. Berghmans +17

Coronal holes are areas on the Sun with open magnetic field lines. They are a source region of the solar wind, but how the wind emerges from coronal holes is not known. We observed…

The Closest View of a Fast Coronal Mass Ejection: How Faulty Assumptions near Perihelion Lead to Unrealistic Interpretations of PSP/WISPR Observations

Ritesh Patel, Matthew J. West, Daniel B. Seaton +3

We report on the closest view of a coronal mass ejection observed by the Parker Solar Probe (PSP)/Wide-field Imager for {Parker} Solar PRobe (WISPR) instrument on September 05, 202…

The SWAP Filter: A Simple Azimuthally Varying Radial Filter for Wide-Field EUV Solar Images

Daniel B. Seaton, David Berghmans, D. Shaun Bloomfield +5

We present the SWAP Filter: an azimuthally varying, radial normalizing filter specifically developed for EUV images of the solar corona, named for the Sun Watcher with Active Pixel…

Magnetic Reconnection as the Driver of the Solar Wind

Nour E. Raouafi, G. Stenborg, D. B. Seaton +16

We present EUV solar observations showing evidence for omnipresent jetting activity driven by small-scale magnetic reconnection at the base of the solar corona. We argue that the p…

Direct observations of a complex coronal web driving highly structured slow solar wind

L. P. Chitta, D. B. Seaton, C. Downs +2

The solar wind consists of continuous streams of charged particles that escape into the heliosphere from the Sun, and is split into fast and slow components, with the fast wind eme…
