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 hab…

The Temperature Anisotropy and Helium Abundance Features of Alfvénic Slow Solar Wind Observed by Parker Solar Probe, Helios, and Wind Missions
Jia Huang, Davin E. Larson, Tamar Ervin +20
Slow solar wind is typically characterized as having low Alfvénicity, but the occasional occurrence of highly Alfvénic slow solar wind (HASSW) raises questions about its source r…
