Impact of solar magnetic field amplitude and geometry on cosmic rays diffusion coefficients in the inner heliosphere

Barbara Perri, Allan Sacha Brun, Antoine Strugarek +1

Cosmic rays (CRs) are tracers of solar events when they are associated with solar flares, but also galactic events when they come from outside our solar system. SEPs are correlated…

The Solar Wind Angular Momentum Flux as Observed by Parker Solar Probe

Adam J. Finley, Sean P. Matt, Victor Réville +9

The long-term evolution of the Sun's rotation period cannot be directly observed, and is instead inferred from trends in the measured rotation periods of other Sun-like stars. Assu…

Alfvén-wave driven magnetic rotator winds from low-mass stars I: rotation dependences of magnetic braking and mass-loss rate

Munehito Shoda, Takeru K. Suzuki, Sean P. Matt +7

Observations of stellar rotation show that low-mass stars lose angular momentum during the main sequence. We simulate the winds of Sun-like stars with a range of rotation rates, co…

Tearing instability and periodic density perturbations in the slow solar wind

Victor Réville, Marco Velli, Alexis Rouillard +4

In contrast with the fast solar wind, that originates in coronal holes, the source of the slow solar wind is still debated. Often intermittent and enriched with low FIP elements --…

Detailed imaging of coronal rays with the Parker Solar Probe

Nicolas Poirier, Athanasios Kouloumvakos, Alexis P. Rouillard +13

The Wide-field Imager for Solar PRobe (WISPR) obtained the first high-resolution images of coronal rays at heights below 15 R when the Parker Solar Probe (PSP) was located…

Direct Detection of Solar Angular Momentum Loss with the Wind Spacecraft

Adam J. Finley, Amy L. Hewitt, Sean P. Matt +3

The rate at which the solar wind extracts angular momentum from the Sun has been predicted by theoretical models for many decades, and yet we lack a conclusive measurement from in-…

Propagation of Alfvén waves in the expanding solar wind with the fast-slow stream interaction

Chen Shi, Marco Velli, Anna Tenerani +2

We carry out two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations of an ensemble of Alfvénic fluctuations propagating in a structured, expanding solar wind including the presence…

Effect of the exoplanet magnetic field topology on its magnetospheric radio emission

J. Varela, V. Réville, A. S. Brun +2

The magnetized wind from stars that impact exoplanets should lead to radio emissions. According to the scaling laws derived in the solar system, the radio emission should depend on…

Global solar magnetic field organization in the outer corona: influence on the solar wind speed and mass flux over the cycle

Victor Réville, Allan Sacha Brun

The dynamics of the solar wind depends intrinsically on the structure of the global solar magnetic field, which undergoes fundamental changes over the 11-yr solar cycle. For instan…
