3D pressure-corrected ballistic extrapolation of solar wind speed in the inner heliosphere

open access: yesJournal of Space Weather and Space Climate
Solar wind parameters at different locations in the inner heliosphere can be estimated using various solar wind extrapolation methods. The simple ballistic method extrapolates solar wind parameters from the point of measurement to a chosen heliospheric ...

Deterministic Propagation of Suprathermal Ions Through the Heliosphere

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The PEPSSI instrument onboard New Horizons is sampling the energy range that bridges pickup and suprathermal He+ ${\mathrm{H}\mathrm{e}}^{+}$ ions for the first time in the outer heliosphere. New Horizons repeatedly encountered structures beyond 30 au that we interpret as the spiral of a corotating interaction region (CIR) for an extended ...

A future interstellar probe on the dynamic heliosphere and its interaction with the very local interstellar medium: In-situ particle and fields measurements and remotely sensed ENAs

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023
The recently published Interstellar Probe (ISP) study report describes a pragmatic mission concept with a launch window that starts in 2036 and is expected to reach several hundreds of astronomical units past the heliopause within a time frame of ≥50 ...

Interplanetary Tracking of the 23 March 2024 CME: Computer Tomographic Analyses of IPS, White‐Light, and Type II Radio Burst Observations

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract We analyze the propagation of a coronal mass ejection (CME) observed on 23 March 2024, at 01:25 UT by SOHO/LASCO using a multi‐instrument and multi‐method approach. The study combines Interplanetary Scintillation (IPS), type II radio bursts, white‐light, in‐situ observations, and 3D tomographic reconstruction of the inner heliospheric density.

Signatures of Reconnection and a Split Heliospheric Tail in High-energy Energetic Neutral Atoms

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The shape of the heliosphere, regarded as comet-like since the 1960s, has recently been the subject of intense debate in the last decade. There is disagreement as to whether the heliospheric tail extends to ∼10,000 au in a comet-like shape or if it is ...

SQUARE2: Spacecraft in QUAdrature for Solar Exploration—A Mission Concept for Synergetic Observations of the Sun and Heliosphere

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
SQUARE2 is the acronym for Spacecraft in QUAdrature for solaR Exploration, and is a mission concept for multi-instrumental two-point observations of the Sun and its environment. It stems from the need to have two probes that are systematically in orbital

The UK Met Office’s Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) Ensemble Prediction System

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract We describe the 24‐member Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) ensemble prediction system that is used operationally at the UK's Met Office Space Weather Operations Center (MOSWOC) to forecast the arrival time of CMEs at Earth. The ensemble system was built on ad‐hoc assumptions and there is the need to investigate whether the technique can be improved

Heliospheric conditions that affect the interstellar gas inside the heliosphere [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2004
The interstellar gas that flows through the heliosphere is strongly affected by ionization close to the Sun, in particular solar photoionization, electron impact, and charge exchange. Therefore, the interpretation of any observation of interstellar gas in the inner heliosphere hinges upon the accurate knowledge of these effects and their variations. In

Quasi‐Periodic X‐Ray Variations at BARREL: Role of Electron Precipitation and Solar Wind Driving

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The Balloon Array for Radiation belt Relativistic Electron Losses (BARREL) mission was designed to study the loss of radiation belt electrons to the upper atmosphere. Previous analysis of data from balloon pairs showed that electron precipitation events manifest coherent quasi‐periodic variations (with periodicity on the order of 10–60 min ...

The Impact of the May 2024 Geomagnetic Storm on TRISAT Orbital Decay: A TLE‐Based Analysis With a Lifetime Forecast

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The 10–13 May 2024 geomagnetic storm was one of the strongest space‐weather events of Solar Cycle 25 and produced a major expansion of the thermosphere, substantially increasing atmospheric drag on low‐Earth‐orbit spacecraft. In this study, we quantify the storm‐time orbital response of TRISAT, Slovenia's first 3U CubeSat, using publicly ...
