Solar magnetic field reversal as seen at Ulysses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The rapid motion of the Ulysses spacecraft from high southern to high northern latitudes in 2000–2001 provided an excellent opportunity to make inferences regarding the solar magnetic dipole's behaviour around solar maximum.

Habitat‐Specific Design Strategies for Untethered Soft Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Habitat shapes the design of untethered soft robots. Across land, water, air, and living tissues, environmental constraints govern viable combinations of compliant structures, actuation mechanisms, and energy delivery. This review connects these constraints with robotic performance and identifies design principles for advancing adaptable, durable, and ...

Linking Critical Heights in Solar Active Regions with 3D Coronal Mass Ejection Speeds: Insights from Automated and Manual Polarity Inversion Line Detection Methods

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
In a space weather context, the most geoeffective coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are fast CMEs from Earth-facing solar active regions. These CMEs are difficult to characterize in coronagraph data due to their high speed (fewer observations), faintness ...

Advancing Energy Materials by In Situ Atomic Scale Methods

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, Volume 15, Issue 11, March 18, 2025.
Progress in in situ atomic scale methods leads to an improved understanding of new and advanced energy materials, where a local understanding of complex, inhomogeneous systems or interfaces down to the atomic scale and quantum level is required. Topics from photovoltaics, dissipation losses, phase transitions, and chemical energy conversion are ...

Analysis of BMR Tilt from AutoTAB Catalog: Hinting toward the Thin Flux Tube Model?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
One of the intriguing mechanisms of the Sun is the formation of bipolar magnetic regions (BMRs) in the solar convection zone (CZ), which are observed as regions of concentrated magnetic fields of opposite polarity on the photosphere.

Coronal Currents, Magnetic Fields, and Heating in a Solar Active Region

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1998
We compare microwave images of a solar active region with state-of-the-art fully nonlinear force-free extrapolations of the photospheric fields in order to study the link between coronal currents and heating of the corona. This extrapolation fully takes into account the nonuniform distribution of electric currents observed in the photosphere and its ...

Current sheets in the solar corona : formation, fragmentation and heating [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this thesis we investigate current sheets in the solar corona. The well known 1D model for the tearing mode instability is presented, before progressing to 2D where we introduce a non-uniform resistivity.

The Photospheric Imprints of Coronal Electric Currents. I. Magnetic Structure near Polarity Inversion Lines

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are powered by magnetic energy stored in coronal electric currents. Here, we use photospheric vector magnetic field observations to study currents in active regions 10930 and 11158, which both produced eruptive, X-

MHD mode conversion of fast and slow magnetoacoustic waves in the solar corona [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
There are three main wave types present in the Sun’s atmosphere: Alfvén waves and fast and slow magnetoacoustic waves. Alfvén waves are purely magnetic and would not exist if it was not for the Sun’s magnetic field.
