Earth-affecting solar transients: a review of progresses in solar cycle 24 [PDF]
Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2021 This review article summarizes the advancement in the studies of Earth-affecting solar transients in the last decade that encompasses most of solar cycle 24. It is a part of the effort of the International Study of Earth-affecting Solar Transients (ISEST)

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 The omnipresence of transient fluctuations in the solar wind, such as switchbacks (SBs) and small-scale magnetic flux ropes (SMFRs), have been well observed by the in situ observation of Parker Solar Probe (PSP), yet their sources are not clear. Possible

The Relationship Between Solar Wind Dynamic Pressure Pulses and Solar Wind Turbulence
Frontiers in Physics, 2021 Solar wind dynamic pressure pulses (DPPs) are small-scale plasma structures with abrupt and large-amplitude plasma dynamic pressure changes on timescales of seconds to several minutes.

Multifrequency Microwave Imaging of Weak Transients from the Quiet Solar Corona
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Understanding the dynamics of the quiet solar corona is important for answering key questions including the coronal heating problem. Multiple studies have suggested small-scale magnetic-reconnection events may play a crucial role.

Coronal transients during two solar minima: their source regions and interplanetary counterparts [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2011 AbstractWe have investigated two full solar rotations belonging to two distinct solar minima, in the frame of two coordinated observational and research campaigns. The nearly uninterrupted gathering of solar coronal data since the beginning of the SOHO era offers the exceptional possibility of comparing two solar minima for the first time, with regard ...

Reconnection-generated Plasma Flows in the Quasi-separatrix Layer in Localized Solar Corona
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Multiwavelength observations of the propagating disturbances (PDs), discovered by Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on board Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), are analyzed to determine their driving mechanism and physical nature. Two magnetic strands in

Broadening of looplike solar coronal transients
The Astrophysical Journal, 1985 The broadening of the tops of nine outwardly expanding looplike coronal mass-ejection transients observed during 1973-1974 and 1980 has been examined. Five of the nine transients exhibit increased breadth with time (height); although the rates vary widely, no event shows an increase which can be fitted by a power-law form with a greater-than-linear ...

Lateral Confinement and the Remarkably Self-similar Nature of Coronal Pseudostreamer Mass Ejections
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) that originate from pseudostreamers, which separate coronal holes of the same magnetic polarity, are characterized by a narrow (∼5°–30°), fan-shaped appearance in white-light coronagraph images.
