Magnetic field measurements during the ROSETTA flyby at asteroid (21) Lutetia

open access: yes, 2011
On July 10, 2010, the ROSETTA spacecraft performed a flyby at asteroid (21) Lutetia at a solar distance of 2.72 AU. The spacecraftâ  asteroid distance at closest approach was 3120 km.

State studies of the large-scale electric fields in the low-latitude region of Earth's inner magnetosphere

open access: yes地球与行星物理论评
The large-scale electric fields in Earth's inner magnetosphere are generated by the interaction between the solar wind and Earth's magnetic field.

Switchbacks near Boundaries of Small-scale Magnetic Flux Ropes in the Young Solar Wind from Parker Solar Probe Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The Parker Solar Probe (PSP) mission has revealed frequent occurrences of switchbacks (SBs) and small-scale magnetic flux ropes (SMFRs) as prominent structures within the solar wind. These mesoscale features are observed across all heliocentric distances,

Magnetic Field Variations in Interplanetary Space [PDF]

open access: yes, 1970
Magnetic field variations and structures in interplanetary space are described and related to the sun. Discrete flare-related effects in the interplanetary medium occur within a large-scale interplanetary sector pattern related to a solar sector pattern that is ordered over a large extent in heliographic latitude and longitude.

Turbulence transport throughout the heliosphere

open access: yes, 2007
We employ a turbulence transport model to compute distributions of turbulence throughout the heliosphere. The model determines the radial dependence of three (coupled) quantities that characterize interplanetary turbulence, the energy per unit mass, the ...

Global MHD simulation of flux transfer events at the high-latitude magnetopause observed by the cluster spacecraft and the SuperDARN radar system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A global magnetohydrodynamic numerical simulation is used to study the large-scale structure and formation location of flux transfer events (FTEs) in synergy with in situ spacecraft and ground-based observations. During the main period of interest on the

Three-dimensional spatial structures of solar wind turbulence from 10 000-km to 100-km scales [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Using the four Cluster spacecraft, we have determined the three-dimensional wave-vector spectra of fluctuating magnetic fields in the solar wind. Three different solar wind intervals of Cluster data are investigated for this purpose, representing ...

Velocity-space Turbulent Cascade in the Near-Sun Solar Wind: First Insights from the Parker Solar Probe Mission

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
In space plasmas, the rarity of collisions leads to complex structures in the velocity space where a turbulent cascade of the velocity distribution function (VDF) fluctuations is thought to occur.

Refinement of Global Coronal and Interplanetary Magnetic Field Extrapolations Constrained by Remote-sensing and In Situ Observations at the Solar Minimum

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Solar magnetic fields are closely related to various physical phenomena on the Sun, which can be extrapolated with different models from photospheric magnetograms.
