Heliophysics Great Observatories and international cooperation in Heliophysics: An orchestrated framework for scientific advancement and discovery
Vourlidas, Angelos; Blanco-Cano, Xóchitl; Lavraud, Benoit +21 more
We suggest that the next era of Heliophysics should focus on the Sun-Heliosphere and Geospace as each a system-of-systems, and recommend a coordinated, deliberate, worldwide scientific effort to answer long-standing questions that will remain unanswered without a unified program. Many of the biggest unanswered science questions that remain across …
Interplanetary scintillation (IPS) analyses during LOFAR campaign mode periods that include the first three Parker Solar Probe close passes of the Sun
Barnes, D.; Jackson, B. V.; Buffington, A. +9 more
The University of California, San Diego (UCSD) time-dependent three-dimensional (3-D) reconstruction technique provides volumetric maps of density, velocity, and solar surface extrapolated magnetic fields by iteratively fitting our kinematic 3-D model to interplanetary scintillation (IPS) observations. While we currently use data from the Institut…
Coronal spectroscopy: Probing sources of slow solar wind in active regions, and the early phases of solar flares
Harra, Louise K.
Coronal spectroscopy has pushed forward the understanding of physical processes in all phenomena on the Sun. In this review we concentrate specifically on plasma parameters measured in sources of the slow solar wind in active regions and the early phases of solar flares. These topics are a key part of the science goals of the Solar Orbiter mission…
Future Venus missions and flybys: A collection of possible measurements with mass spectrometers and plasma instruments
Wurz, P.; Galli, A.; Vorburger, A. +1 more
This study contains predictions for mass spectrometry and plasma instrument measurements during upcoming Venus flybys of BepiColombo and Solar Orbiter and discusses the possibility of a phosphine detection with mass spectrometry in Venus' upper atmosphere. The results extend the ones published previously in Gruchola et al. (2019), where prediction…
