A Multicomponent Magnetic Proxy for Solar Activity
Abstract We present a new, multicomponent magnetic proxy for solar activity derived from full disk magnetograms that can be used in the specification and forecasting of the Sun’s radiative output. To compute this proxy we project Carrington maps, such as the synchronic Carrington maps computed with the Advective Flux Transport (AFT) surface flux ...

A Multi‐Purpose Heliophysics L4 Mission
Abstract The Earth‐Sun Lagrangian point 4 is a meta‐stable location at 1 AU from the Sun, 60° ahead of Earth's orbit. It has an uninterrupted view of the solar photosphere centered on W60, the Earth's nominal magnetic field connection to the Sun. Such a mission on its own would serve as a solar remote sensing observatory that would oversee the entire ...

R2O2R Improvements Identified by United States Space Weather Forecasters
Abstract A communication deficit exists between the space weather research and forecast communities in the research‐to‐operations‐to‐research (R2O2R) pipeline. No formal, citable space exists for forecasters to communicate needs and lessons learned to the research community (O2R).

Saturn's Rings as a Seismograph to Probe Saturn's Internal Structure
As it has already done for Earth, the Sun, and the stars, seismology has the potential to radically change the way the interiors of giant planets are studied. In a sequence of events foreseen by only a few, observations of Saturn's rings by the Cassini spacecraft have rapidly broken ground on giant planet seismology. Gravity directly couples the planet'

Context. Earth-side observations of solar p modes can be used to image and monitor magnetic activity on the Sun’s far side. In this work, we use magnetograms of the far side obtained by the Polarimetric and Helioseismic Imager (PHI) on board Solar Orbiter (SO) to directly ...

The Sun’s Internal Differential Rotation From Helioseismology [PDF]
AbstractWell-confirmed helioseismic data from several groups using various observational techniques at different sites have allowed us to determine the differential rotation in the outer half of the Sun’s interior. The resulting rotation law is simple – the surface differential rotation persists through much of the convection zone with a transition ...

Ryugu reference project: Recommendations from the measurement definition team
Abstract Sample return missions play a significant role in planetary science by providing pristine extraterrestrial materials. JAXA's Hayabusa2 and NASA's OSIRIS‐REx missions have returned samples from the C‐type asteroids Ryugu and Bennu, respectively. The chemical and mineralogical compositions of these samples closely resemble those of CI chondrites,

Coronal and heliospheric magnetic flux circulation and its relation to open solar flux evolution
Abstract Solar cycle 24 is notable for three features that can be found in previous cycles but which have been unusually prominent: (1) sunspot activity was considerably greater in the northern/southern hemisphere during the rising/declining phase; (2) accumulation of open solar flux (OSF) during the rising phase was modest, but rapid in the early ...

Abstract A demonstrated failure mode for operational solar flare forecasting is the inability to forecast flares that occur near, or just beyond, the solar limb. To address this shortcoming, we develop a “4π $4{\uppi }$” full‐heliosphere event forecasting framework and evaluate its statistical classification ability against this specific challenge.
