Abstract Jupiter's auroral regions have previously been defined by broad‐scale auroral structures, but these are typically obscured by the wide array of temporal variability observed at timescales between minutes and days, making it difficult to understand the underlying magnetospheric biases driving these brightness differences.

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

Global solar activity variation mainly occurs over about an 11 yr cycle. However, both longer and shorter periodicities than the solar cycle are also present in many different solar activity indices.

Heating of the quiet solar chromosphere [PDF]
We have analyzed a large number of Caii H line profiles at the sites of the bright points in the interior of the network using a 35-min-long time sequence of spectra obtained at the Vacuum Tower Telescope (VTT) of the Sacramento Peak Observatory on a quiet regon of the solar disc and studied the dynamical processes associated with these structures.

Abstract Recently, many machine learning‐based models have been developed to predict geomagnetic activity several days in advance directly from space‐borne solar imaging. To better understand and improve these models, we compare dimensionality reduction techniques to extract abstract features from solar images for space weather‐related downstream tasks.

Solar Wind Acceleration from the Upper Chromosphere to the Corona in Coronal Hole Regions [PDF]
Flow speeds derived in recent years from chromospheric/transition region and coronal observations suggest that the solar wind acceleration process might start at heights in the solar atmosphere much lower than previously imagined.

Context. These studies were carried out in the context of solar-chromosphere heating and solar-wind generation. Aims. We aim to explore granulation-generated, two-fluid waves and flows in the solar atmosphere permeated by a solar magnetic carpet. Methods.

Deriving the Coronal Separatrix‐Web With the WSA Model
Abstract We demonstrate a new capability of the Wang‐Sheeley‐Arge (WSA) model to routinely derive the coronal separatrix web (S‐web) as a standard data product. We describe our methodology for deriving the squashing factor (Q $Q$) and we use Carrington rotation (CR) 2109 to illustrate the validation of our output with that derived from the POT3D model.
