Free Energy Sources of Ion-scale Waves Observed by Parker Solar Probe
Niranjana Shankarappa, Kristopher G. Klein, Mihailo M. Martinović +6
Parker Solar Probe (PSP) observes abundant circularly polarized ion-scale waves throughout the inner heliosphere. These waves are a signature of the interplay between plasma microi…
Multi-spacecraft Measurements of the Evolving Geometry of the Solar Alfvén Surface Over Half a Solar Cycle
Samuel T. Badman, Michael L. Stevens, Stuart D. Bale +18
The geometry of a star's Alfvén surface determines stellar angular momentum loss, separates a causally distinct 'corona' and stellar wind, and potentially affects exoplanetary habi…
Differentiating the acceleration mechanisms in the slow and Alfvénic slow solar wind
Yeimy J. Rivera, Samuel T. Badman, J. L. Verniero +18
In the corona, plasma is accelerated to hundreds of kilometers per second, and heated to temperatures hundreds of times hotter than the Sun's surface, before it escapes to form the…
Mixed Source Region Signatures Inside Magnetic Switchback Patches Inferred by Heavy Ion Diagnostics
Yeimy J. Rivera, Samuel T. Badman, Michael L. Stevens +13
Since Parker Solar Probe's (Parker's) first perihelion pass at the Sun, large amplitude Alfvén waves grouped in patches have been observed near the Sun throughout the mission. Seve…
Origin and Properties of the Near Subsonic Solar Wind Observed by Parker Solar Probe
Wenshuai Cheng, Ying D. Liu, Hao Ran +3
We identify and examine the solar wind intervals near the sonic critical point (i.e., ) observed by the Parker Solar Probe (PSP). The near subsonic wind intervals show…
Direct In Situ Measurements of a Fast Coronal Mass Ejection and Associated Structures in the Corona
Ying D. Liu, Bei Zhu, Hao Ran +6
We report on the first direct in situ measurements of a fast coronal mass ejection (CME) and shock in the corona, which occurred on 2022 September 5. In situ measurements from the…
