Particle monitoring capability of the Solar Orbiter Metis coronagraph through the increasing phase of solar cycle 25
Catia Grimani, Vincenzo Andretta, Ester Antonucci +26
Context. Galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) and solar particles with energies greater than tens of MeV penetrate spacecraft and instruments hosted aboard space missions. The Solar Orbiter…
Coronal Heating Rate in the Slow Solar Wind
Daniele Telloni, Marco Romoli, Marco Velli +59
This Letter reports the first observational estimate of the heating rate in the slowly expanding solar corona. The analysis exploits the simultaneous remote and local observations…
Solar observations with single-dish INAF radio telescopes: continuum imaging in the 18-26 GHz range
A. Pellizzoni, S. Righini, M. N. Iacolina +28
We present a new solar radio imaging system implemented through the upgrade of the large single-dish telescopes of the Italian National Institute for Astrophysics (INAF), not origi…
Exploring the Solar Wind from its Source on the Corona into the Inner Heliosphere during the First Solar Orbiter - Parker Solar Probe Quadrature
Daniele Telloni, Vincenzo Andretta, Ester Antonucci +68
This Letter addresses the first Solar Orbiter (SO) -- Parker Solar Probe (PSP) quadrature, occurring on January 18, 2021, to investigate the evolution of solar wind from the extend…
First light observations of the solar wind in the outer corona with the Metis coronagraph
M. Romoli, E. Antonucci, V. Andretta +65
The investigation of the wind in the solar corona initiated with the observations of the resonantly scattered UV emission of the coronal plasma obtained with UVCS-SOHO, designed to…
Metis: the Solar Orbiter visible light and ultraviolet coronal imager
Ester Antonucci, Marco Romoli, Vincenzo Andretta +100
Metis is the first solar coronagraph designed for a space mission capable of performing simultaneous imaging of the off-limb solar corona in both visible and UV light. The observat…
Halo Coronal Mass Ejections during Solar Cycle 24: reconstruction of the global scenario and geoeffectiveness
Camilla Scolini, Mauro Messerotti, Stefaan Poedts +1
In this study we present a statistical analysis of 53 fast Earth-directed halo CMEs observed by the SOHO/LASCO instrument during the period Jan. 2009-Sep. 2015, and we use this CME…
Solar Flare Occurrence Rate and Waiting Time Statistics
Andrei Gorobets, Mauro Messerotti
We use Renewal Theory for the estimation and interpretation of the flare rate from the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) soft X-ray flare catalogue. It is fo…
