Investigating Coronal Holes and CMEs as Sources of Brightness Depletion Detected in PSP/WISPR Images
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The Parker Solar Probe (PSP) mission provides a unique opportunity to observe the solar corona from distances below 20 R _☉ . In this work, we utilize white light images from the Wide-field Imager for Solar PRobe aboard the PSP from solar encounters 10 ...

EUV imaging and spectroscopy for improved space weather forecasting
Journal of Space Weather and Space Climate, 2020 Accurate predictions of harmful space weather effects are mandatory for the protection of astronauts and other assets in space, whether in Earth or lunar orbit, in transit between solar system objects, or on the surface of other planetary bodies. Because

Coronal spectral diagnostics: The coronal solar magnetism observatory (COSMO)
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022 The Need: Understanding and predicting the major phenomena taking place in the solar corona, such as flares and Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs), the heating and evolution of the solar atmosphere, and the acceleration of the solar wind, are fundamental ...

MHD turbulence and heating of the open field-line solar corona [PDF]
, 2003 This paper discusses the possibility that heating of the solar corona in open field-line regions emanating from coronal holes is due to a nonlinear cascade, driven by low-frequency or quasi-static magnetohydrodynamic fluctuations.

Waves in the Solar Corona [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 2004 Waves at all scales, ranging in wavelength from the size of a loop (fraction of a solar radius) down to the gyroradii of coronal ions (about hundred meters), are believed to play a key role in the transport of mechanical energy from the chromosphere to the Sun's corona and wind, and through the dissipation of wave energy in the heating and sustaining ...

Seismological demonstration of perpendicular density structuring in the solar corona [PDF]
, 2008 The peculiarities of the propagating transverse waves observed in the solar corona with the CoronalMulti-channel Polarimeter (CoMP)indicate the existence of fine field structuring in the coronal density.

Slow solar wind acceleration through the middle corona: Spacecraft radio studies
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022 The “Middle Corona”, defined by recent consensus as the region spanning 1.5–6 solar radii (R⊙, heliocentric), is an important zone through which several structural and dynamic changes occur in coronal streamer regions. Among these is a regime change from

The possible role of vortex shedding in the excitation of kink-mode oscillations in the solar corona [PDF]
, 2009 We propose a model for the excitation of horizontally polarised transverse (kink) magnetoacoustic oscillations of solar coronal loops by upflows associated with coronal mass ejections.
