Observing the solar corona from a formation-flying mission. First results of Proba-3/ASPIICS
A. N. Zhukov, L. Dolla, M. Mierla +32
We report the first results from observations of the solar corona by the ASPIICS coronagraph aboard the Proba-3 mission. ASPIICS (Association of Spacecraft for Polarimetric and Ima…
The ASPIICS solar coronagraph aboard the Proba-3 formation flying mission. Scientific objectives and instrument design
A. N. Zhukov, C. Thizy, D. Galano +67
We describe the scientific objectives and instrument design of the ASPIICS coronagraph launched aboard the Proba-3 mission of the European Space Agency (ESA) on 5 December 2024. Pr…
A magnetic avalanche as the central engine powering a solar flare
L. P. Chitta, D. I. Pontin, E. R. Priest +17
Solar flares are the most powerful, magnetically driven, explosions in the heliosphere. The nature of magnetic energy release in the solar corona that heats the plasma and accelera…
Coronal voids and their magnetic nature
J. D. Nölke, S. K. Solanki, J. Hirzberger +68
Extreme ultraviolet (EUV) observations of the quiet solar atmosphere reveal extended regions of weak emission compared to the ambient quiescent corona. The magnetic nature of these…
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…
A multiple spacecraft detection of the 2 April 2022 M-class flare and filament eruption during the first close Solar Orbiter perihelion
M. Janvier, S. Mzerguat, P. R. Young +56
The Solar Orbiter mission completed its first remote-sensing observation windows in the spring of 2022. On 2/4/2022, an M-class flare followed by a filament eruption was seen both…
