Modeling Solar Coronal Cavities in Streamers

open access: yes, 2022
The solar corona is home to a variety of violent and dynamic events controlled by the coronal magnetic field, often termed “solar activity” (e.g., solar flares and coronal mass ejections [CMEs]). CMEs are often associated with the eruption of filaments embedded in the lobes of pseudostreamers or helmet streamers.

Evolution of coronal streamer structure during the rising phase of solar cycle 23 [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2000
White‐light images of the outer corona recorded with the Large Angle Spectrometric Coronagraph (LASCO) on the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) show a rapid widening of the streamer belt during 1998 and early 1999. The observed streamer structure and its evolution from rotation to rotation are reproduced with a model in which the Thomson ...

Flux-tube geometry and solar wind speed during an activity cycle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The solar wind speed at 1 AU shows variations in latitude and in time which reflect the evolution of the global background magnetic field during the activity cycle.

Effects of Coronal Magnetic Field Configuration on Particle Acceleration and Release during the Ground Level Enhancement Events in Solar Cycle 24

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Ground level enhancements (GLEs) are extreme solar energetic particle (SEP) events that are of particular importance in space weather. In solar cycle 24, two GLEs were recorded on 2012 May 17 (GLE 71) and 2017 September 10 (GLE 72), respectively, using a

COCONUT, a Novel Fast-converging MHD Model for Solar Corona Simulations. III. Impact of the Preprocessing of the Magnetic Map on the Modeling of the Solar Cycle Activity and Comparison with Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We developed a novel global coronal COCONUT (Coolfluid Corona Unstructured) model based on the COOLFluiD code. The steady-state model is predetermined by magnetograms set as boundary conditions, while inside the numerical domain the corona is described ...

Coronal Pseudo-Streamer and Bipolar Streamer Observed by SOHO/UVCS in March 2008

open access: yes, 2015
The last solar minimum is characterized by several peculiar aspects and by the presence of a complex magnetic topology with two different kinds of coronal streamers: pseudo-streamers and bipolar streamers.

Diagnostics of Coronal Magnetic Fields Through the Hanle Effect in UV and IR Lines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The plasma thermodynamics in the solar upper atmosphere, particularly in the corona, are dominated by the magnetic field, which controls the flow and dissipation of energy.

An estimate of large‐scale solar wind density and velocity profiles in a coronal hole and the coronal streamer belt [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 1997
With the use of the total electron content data obtained by the Ulysses Solar Corona Experiment (SCE) during the first solar conjunction in summer 1991, two data sets were selected, one associated with a coronal hole and the other associated with coronal streamer belt crossings.

Effects of Coronal Mass Ejections on Distant Coronal Streamers

open access: yes, 2014
The effects of a large coronal mass ejection (CME) on a solar coronal streamer located roughly 90 degrees from the main direction of the CME propagation observed on January 2, 2012 by the SOHO/LASCO coronagraph are analyzed.

Periodic Density Structures Observed in Ulysses Data: First Results

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Periodic density structures (PDSs) are advecting quasi‐periodic (periodicities between several minutes and several hours) density enhancements observed in the solar wind and corona. There is strong evidence that PDSs are formed at the Sun.
