The Sun as a driver of the inner heliosphere: Modern investigations of fundamental plasma processes [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsThe inner heliosphere serves as a natural laboratory to study fundamental plasma physics. A robust understanding of kinetic processes will fill gaps in our global understanding of the Sun and heliosphere, with applicability to laboratory and ...

Detection of solar QBO-like signals in earth’s magnetic field from multi-GOES mission data [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 Through variations in its magnetic activity at different timescales, the Sun strongly influences the space weather conditions throughout the heliosphere. The most known solar activity variation is the Schwabe Cycle, also known as the Sunspot Cycle (SCs),

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022 SQUARE2 is the acronym for Spacecraft in QUAdrature for solaR Exploration, and is a mission concept for multi-instrumental two-point observations of the Sun and its environment. It stems from the need to have two probes that are systematically in orbital

Increased and varied radiation during the Sun’s encounters with cold clouds in the last 10 million years [PDF]
Scientific ReportsRecent research raises the possibility that 2–3 and 6–7 million years ago, the Sun encountered massive clouds that shrank the heliosphere —the solar cocoon protecting our solar system— exposing Earth to its interstellar environment, in agreement with ...

Sun–Heliosphere Observation-based Ionization Rates Model [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2020 Abstract The solar wind (SW) and the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiation modulate fluxes of interstellar and heliospheric particles inside the heliosphere both in time and in space. Understanding this modulation is necessary to correctly interpret measurements of particles of interstellar origin inside the heliosphere.

SPICE connection mosaics to link the Sun’s surface and the heliosphere
Astronomy and AstrophysicsAims. We present an analysis of the first connection mosaic made by the SPICE instrument on board the ESA/NASA Solar Orbiter mission on March 2, 2022. The data will be used to map coronal composition that will be compared with in-situ measurements taken by SWA/HIS to establish the coronal origin of the solar wind plasma observed at Solar Orbiter.

The Stationary Electric Field in the Heliosphere and Its Possible Relation to Current Sheets
Universe, 2022 The nature of the large-scale electric field in the heliosphere is discussed in this paper. The electric potential along each line of the magnetic field should be constant in the ideally conductive solar wind.

Global insight into a complex-structured heliosphere based on the local multi-point analysis
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023 From 29 January to 7 February 2022, the heliosphere was structured with large-scale interacting substructures that appeared with significant dissimilarities at distant observations separated longitudinally by ∼34°.
