Evolution and Impact of Switchbacks Throughout the Heliosphere
Alfred Mallet, Chen Shi, Anna Tenerani +23
Magnetic switchbacks are large-amplitude fluctuations in the interplanetary magnetic field, and appear frequently in the near-Sun solar wind explored recently by Parker Solar Probe…
Wave Activity at MHD-ion Scales Associated with Switchbacks
Kyung-Eun Choi, Oleksiy V. Agapitov, Forrest Mozer +9
Magnetic switchbacks (SB) -- the localized magnetic structures with magnetic field direction inclined at an angle relative to the background -- in the young solar wind h…
On flying near the base of a pseudo-streamer
Forrest Mozer, Oleksiy Agapitov, Kyungeun Choi +1
Near the 10 solar radius perihelion of Parker Solar Probe encounter 24, a confined region containing an enhanced plasma density (25,000 per cubic centimeter) and broadband electros…
Properties of Magnetic Switchbacks in the Near-Sun Solar Wind
Samuel T. Badman, Naïs Fargette, Lorenzo Matteini +24
Magnetic switchbacks are fluctuations in the solar wind in which the interplanetary magnetic field sharply deflects away from its background direction so as to create folds in magn…
