Multi-Angle Viewing of the Sun and the Inner Heliosphere

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2003
We describe the concept of a proposed mission, called Multi‐Angle Solar Sources Explorer (MASSE), that would observe the Sun and the inner Heliosphere from an orbit at 0.72 AU over all solar longitudes. It would, in coordination with observations from Earth’s side, investigate the sources of solar activity from their origin deep within the Sun, their ...

The Sun and the Heliosphere as an Integrated System

Astrophysics and Space Science Library, 2004
This book, for the first time, ties together physical processes across the full scale of the heliosphere. It is about the natural connections that exist between various parts of the system. Therefore, it is mainly cast in terms of those mechanisms and phenomena rather than individual missions in space.

The Sun and Heliosphere

2014
The Sun is our star. It provides the energy that makes life’s existence on Earth possible. The main zones of the observed Sun are the photosphere, chromosphere, and corona. Their composition, structure, and peculiarities are intrinsically related with the interior where nuclear fusion occurs. Solar activity includes an 11-year solar cycle and different

The Sun and the Heliosphere

2000
The advent of space age with its new capabilities of satellites and space probes to fly sophisticated instruments in space for a long period of time for studying the Sun and the solar system, opened up many new windows of knowledge on solar physics and space astrophysics.

Solar orbiter, a high-resolution mission to the sun and inner heliosphere

Advances in Space Research, 2002
Abstract The scientific rationale of the Solar Orbiter is to provide, at high spatial (35 km pixel size) and temporal resolution, observations of the solar atmosphere and unexplored inner heliosphere. Novel observations will be made in the almost heliosynchronous segments of the orbits at heliocentric distances near 45 R⊙ and out of the ecliptic ...

Sun and heliosphere in ESA's scientific programme

Physics and Chemistry of the Earth, 1997
Abstract Two of the five missions in ESA's Scientific Programme that are currently operated in orbit are devoted to solar and heliospheric science: ULYSSES and SOHO. ULYSSES explores the heliosphere in a heliocentric out-of-ecliptic orbit - predominantly through in-situ sensing of its local plasma environment and by solar-wind and cosmic-ray ...

Heliospheric Physics: Linking the Sun to the Magnetosphere

Space Science Reviews, 2006
Research into the heliospheric structure and its relation to the solar boundary is at an impasse. After successful predictions by Parker about the zeroth-order behavior of the heliospheric magnetic field and the solar wind, the heliospheric community struggles to make substantive progress toward a predictive model describing the connections between the

A New View of the Coupling of the Sun and the Heliosphere

Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2007
The structure of the global heliospheric field reflects the physical properties of the low corona. The implied connections between solar and heliospheric evolution have been analyzed by a powerful multisatellite solar and heliospheric observatory that includes the Ulysses and the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) spacecraft.
