Solar wind energy flux observations in the inner heliosphere: First results from Parker Solar Probe
M. Liu, K. Issautier, N. Meyer-Vernet +15
We investigate the solar wind energy flux in the inner heliosphere using 12-day observations around each perihelion of Encounter One (E01), Two (E02), Four (E04), and Five (E05) of…
Half a Century of Kinetic Solar Wind Models
Joseph Lemaire
I outline the development of four generations of kinetic models, starting with Chamberlain's solar breeze exospheric model. It is shown why this first kinetic model did not give ap…
Resonant Interactions Between Protons and Oblique Alfvén/Ion-Cyclotron Waves
Peera Pongkitiwanichakul, Benjamin D. G. Chandran, Philip A. Isenberg +1
Resonant interactions between ions and Alfvén/ion-cyclotron (A/IC) waves may play an important role in the heating and acceleration of the fast solar wind. Although such interactio…
Coronal Inflows and Giant Polar Plumes
R. Pinto, R. Grappin, J. Leorat
We present the first results of simulations of giant polar plumes and coronal flows. We use a 2.5D axisymmetric MHD numerical model of an isothermal corona and slow solar wind. A p…
Coupling Photosphere and Corona: Linear and Turbulent Regimes
A. Verdini, R. Grappin, M. Velli
In a recent work Grappin et al. [1] have shown that low- frequency movements can be transmitted from one footpoint to the other along a magnetic loop, thus mimicking a friction eff…
Turbulence, Energy Transfers and Reconnection in Compressible Coronal Heating Field-line Tangling Models
R. B. Dahlburg, A. F. Rappazzo, M. Velli
MHD turbulence has long been proposed as a mechanism for the heating of coronal loops in the framework of the Parker scenario for coronal heating. So far most of the studies have f…
Solar-Terrestrial Simulations of CMEs with a Realistic Initiation Mechanism: Case Study for Active Region 10069
N. Lugaz, I. I. Roussev, I. V. Sokolov +1
Most simulations of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) to date either focus on the interplanetary propagation of a giant plasma "blob" without paying too much attention to its origin an…
Upflows in the upper transition region of the quiet Sun
H. Tian, C. -Y. Tu, E. Marsch +3
We investigate the physical meaning of the prominent blue shifts of Ne VIII, which is observed to be associated with quiet-Sun network junctions (boundary intersections), through d…
On Formation Of A Shock Wave In Front Of A Coronal Mass Ejection With Velocity Exceeding The Critical One
M Eselevich
New study confirms conclusions made in [M. Eselevich, and V. Eselevich, 2008]; according to it, there is a disturbed region expended along the CME propagation direction in front of…
On The Possible Mechanism Of Energy Dissipation In Shock-Wave Fronts Driven Ahead Of Coronal Mass Ejections
M. Eselevich, V. Eselevich
Analysis of Mark 4 and LASCO C2, C3 coronagraph data shows that, at the distance R from the center of the Sun, the thickness of a CME-generated shock-wave front…
Analysis of the energy release for different magnetic reconnection regimes within the solar environment
Lapo Bettarini, Giovanni Lapenta
A 2.5-dimensional magnetohydrodynamics simulation analysis of the energy release for three different reconnection regimes is presented. The system under investigation consists in a…
More than mass proportional heating of heavy ions by supercritical collisionless shocks in the solar corona
Gaetano Zimbardo
We propose a new model for explaining the observations of more than mass proportional heating of heavy ions in the polar solar corona. We point out that a large number of small sca…
