Impact of Inner Heliospheric Boundary Conditions on Solar Wind Predictions at Earth

open access: yesSpace Weather, 2021
Predictions of the physical parameters of the solar wind at Earth are at the core of operational space weather forecasts. Such predictions typically use line‐of‐sight observations of the photospheric magnetic field to drive a heliospheric model.

The Solar Galactic Environment

open access: yes, 2004
Combined heliosphere-astronomical data and models enrich our understanding both of effects the solar galactic environment might have on the inner heliosphere, and of interstellar clouds.

Deep Learning‐Based Prediction of High‐Speed Solar Wind Streams: Spatio‐Temporal Dependencies in Coronal Hole Dynamics

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract High‐speed solar wind streams (HSS), originating from coronal holes (CH), are key drivers of space weather disturbances and heliospheric dynamics. However, forecasting HSS remains challenging due to the evolving morphology of CH. In this study, we present a deep learning‐based framework that models the spatiotemporal relationship between CH ...

A local interstellar spectrum for galactic electrons

open access: yes, 2013
A heliopause spectrum at 122 AU from the Sun is presented for galactic electrons over an energy range from 1 MeV to 50 GeV that can be considered the lowest possible local interstellar spectrum (LIS). The focus is on the spectral shape of the LIS below 1.

Reconstruction of Helio-latitudinal Structure of the Solar Wind Proton Speed and Density [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The modeling of the heliosphere requires continuous three-dimensional solar wind data. The in-situ out-of-ecliptic measurements are very rare, so that other methods of solar wind detection are needed.

Heliosphere

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1991
Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are playing increasingly important roles in models developed to understand solar‐terrestrial physics. A CME is characterized by a disruption or change in a helmet streamer, one of the radiant petals so prominent in solar eclipse pictures.

Whistler Critical Mach Number Concept Revisited

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The formation of a collisionless shock is the result of a balance between nonlinear steepening and processes that counteract this steepening. Dispersive shocks are shocks in which dispersive processes counterbalance the front steepening and are formed when the dispersive spatial scale exceeds scales associated with resistive processes.

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 ...

Turbulence in the Outer Heliosphere

open access: yesSpace Science Reviews, 2022
AbstractThe solar wind (SW) and local interstellar medium (LISM) are turbulent media. Their interaction is governed by complex physical processes and creates heliospheric regions with significantly different properties in terms of particle populations, bulk flow and turbulence.

Kinetic Modeling of Inertial Alfvén Waves in the Solar Corona: Implications for Heating and Particle Acceleration

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Recent observations from Parker Solar Probe and Solar Orbiter highlight the importance of Alfvén waves in solar coronal heating and particle acceleration. In this study, we investigate inertial Alfvén waves (IAWs), which operate at electron inertial scales, as a potential mechanism for plasma heating and charged particle acceleration in the ...
