Eruption and Interplanetary Evolution of a Stealthy Streamer-Blowout CME Observed by PSP at ∼0.5 AU
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022 Streamer-blowout coronal mass ejections (SBO-CMEs) are the dominant CME population during solar minimum. Although they are typically slow and lack clear low-coronal signatures, they can cause geomagnetic storms.

Ulysses Flyby in the Heliosphere: Comparison of the Solar Wind Model with Observational Data
Universe, 2022 A model capable of reproducing a set of solar wind parameters along the virtual spacecraft orbit out of an ecliptic plane has been developed. In the framework of a quasi-stationary axisymmetric self-consistent MHD model the spatial distributions of ...

Mesoscale Structure in the Solar Wind
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021 Structures in the solar wind result from two basic mechanisms: structures injected or imposed directly by the Sun, and structures formed through processing en route as the solar wind advects outward and fills the heliosphere. On the largest scales, solar

Globally Distributed Energetic Neutral Atom Maps for the "Croissant" Heliosphere [PDF]
, 2018 A recent study by Opher et al. (2015) suggested the heliosphere has a "croissant" shape, where the heliosheath plasma is confined by the toroidal solar magnetic field. The "croissant" heliosphere is in contrast to the classically accepted view of a comet-

MANIFESTATIONS OF TWO BRANCHES OF SOLAR ACTIVITY IN THE HELIOSPHERE AND GCR INTENSITY
Solar-Terrestrial Physics, 2019 This paper provides insight into heliospheric processes and galactic cosmic ray (GCR) modulation occurring due to the presence of two branches of solar activity in this solar layer.
