Radial Distributions of Coronal Electron Temperatures: specificities of the DYN model

Joseph F. Lemaire, Athanassios C. Katsiyannis

This paper is a follow up of the article where Lemaire and Stegen (2016) introduced their DYN method to calculate coronal temperature profiles from given radial distributions of th…

Collisionless transport equations derived from a kinetic exospheric solar wind model with kappa velocity distribution functions

Gabriel Voitcu, Viviane Pierrard, Herve Lamy +2

In this paper we discuss the collisionless transport equations, continuity, momentum and energy conservation, derived from a kinetic exospheric model of the solar wind based on a k…

A review on solar wind modeling: kinetic and fluid aspects

Marius Echim, Joseph Lemaire, Oystein Lie-Svendsen

We review the main advantages and limitations of the kinetic exospheric and fluid models of the solar wind (SW). We discuss the hydrostatic model imagined by Chapman, the first sup…

What happens when the geomagnetic field reverses?

Joseph F. Lemaire, Fred Singer

During geomagnetic field reversals the radiation belt high-energy proton populations become depleted. Their energy spectra become softer, with the trapped particles of highest ener…

The effect of a southward interplanetary magnetic field on Störmer's allowed regions

Joseph F. Lemaire

The motion of a charged particle in a magnetic dipole has first been studied by Stormer. The different applications of Stormer's theory to aurorae, cosmic rays and Van Allen radiat…

Coronal temperature profiles obtained from kinetic models and from coronal brightness measurements obtained during solar eclipses

V. Pierrard, K. Borremans, J. F. Lemaire

Coronal density, temperature and heat flux distributions for the equatorial and polar corona have been deduced by Lemaire [2012] from Saito's model of averaged coronal white light…
