Introduction to special issue on high speed solar wind streams and geospace interactions (HSS-GI) [PDF]
This special issue of the Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics is devoted to research into high speed solar wind streams (HSSs) and their effects on the region of near-Earth space commonly known as ‘geospace’.

Long-term evolution of solar coronal holes [PDF]
Solar coronal holes are regions of open magnetic field lines in the solar corona. They are the source region of high-speed solar wind streams that play an important role for geomagnetic activity and are the most important driver of energetic particle ...

High-frequency Alfven waves in multi-ion coronal plasma : observational implications [PDF]
We investigate the effects of high-frequency (of order ion gyrofrequency) Alfvén and ion-cyclotron waves on ion emission lines by studying the dispersion of these waves in a multi-ion coronal plasma.

Solar Mass Ejections and Coronal Holes [PDF]
AbstractIn this paper we present observations of two types of solar mass ejections, which seem to be associated with the location of coronal holes. In the first type, a filament eruption was observed near a coronal hole, which gave rise to a strong interplanetary scintillations, as detected by IPS observations.

Estimating Ion Temperatures at the Polar Coronal Hole Boundary
The temperatures of the heavy ions ( T _i ) in the solar corona provide critical information about the heating mechanism of the million-degree corona.

Investigating Alfvénic wave propagation in coronal open-field regions [PDF]
The physical mechanisms behind accelerating solar and stellar winds are a long-standing astrophysical mystery, although recent breakthroughs have come from models invoking the turbulent dissipation of Alfvén waves.

On the topology of global coronal magnetic fields [PDF]
This thesis considers the magnetic topology of the global solar corona. To understand the magnetic topology we use the magnetic skeleton which provides us with a robust description of the magnetic field.

We propose that coronal heating in EUV coronal plumes is weaker, not stronger, than in adjacent nonplume coronal magnetic funnels. This expectation stems from (i) the observation that an EUV plume is born as the magnetic flux at the foot of the plume’s ...

MHD simulations of coronal heating [PDF]
The problem of heating the solar corona requires the conversion of magnetic energy into thermal energy. Presently, there are two promising mechanisms for heating the solar corona: wave heating and nanoflare heating.
