Initial results from the New Horizons exploration of 2014 MU69, a small Kuiper Belt Object

S. A. Stern, H. A. Weaver, J. R. Spencer +202

The Kuiper Belt is a distant region of the Solar System. On 1 January 2019, the New Horizons spacecraft flew close to (486958) 2014 MU69, a Cold Classical Kuiper Belt Object, a cla…

The Formation of Heliospheric Arcs of Slow Solar Wind

A. K. Higginson, S. K. Antiochos, C. R. DeVore +2

A major challenge in solar and heliospheric physics is understanding how highly localized regions, far smaller than 1 degree at the Sun, are the source of solar-wind structures spa…

Dynamics of Coronal-Hole Boundaries

A. K. Higginson, S. K. Antiochos, C. R. DeVore +2

Remote and in-situ observations strongly imply that the slow solar wind consists of plasma from the hot, closed-field corona that is released onto open magnetic field lines. The Se…

Solar models in light of new high metallicity measurements from solar wind data

Sunny Vagnozzi, Katherine Freese, Thomas H. Zurbuchen

We study the impact of new metallicity measurements, from solar wind data, on the solar model. The "solar modelling problem" refers to the persisting discrepancy between helioseism…

Variations in solar wind fractionation as seen by ACE/SWICS over a solar cycle and the implications for Genesis Mission results

P. Pilleri, D. B. Reisenfeld, T. H. Zurbuchen +5

We use ACE/SWICS elemental composition data to compare the variations in solar wind fractionation as measured by SWICS during the last solar maximum (1999-2001), the solar minimum…

Tracking Solar Active Region Outflow Plasma from its Source to the near-Earth Environment

J. L. Culhane, D. H. Brooks, L. van Driel-Gesztelyi +6

Seeking to establish whether active region upflow material contributes to the slow solar wind, we examine in detail the plasma upflows from Active Region (AR)10978, which crossed t…
