Periodic Oscillations in LASCO Coronal Mass Ejection Speeds: Space Seismology
DOI: 10.3847/2041-8213/ac54b0 Bibcode: 2022ApJ...927L..16M

Gopalswamy, Nat; Yashiro, Seiji; Michalek, Grzegorz

Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are energetic eruptions of organized magnetic structures from the Sun. Therefore, the reconnection of the magnetic field during ejection can excite periodic speed oscillations of CMEs. A previous study showed that speed oscillations are frequently associated with CME propagation. The Solar and Heliospheric Observatory…

PSP/IS⊙IS Observation of a Solar Energetic Particle Event Associated with a Streamer Blowout Coronal Mass Ejection during Encounter 6
DOI: 10.3847/1538-4357/ac408f Bibcode: 2022ApJ...925..212G

In this paper we examine a low-energy solar energetic particle (SEP) event observed by IS⊙IS's Energetic Particle Instrument-Low (EPI-Lo) inside 0.18 au on 2020 September 30. This small SEP event has a very interesting time profile and ion composition. Our results show that the maximum energy and peak in intensity are observed mainly along the ope…

A Time-dependent Self-similar Reconstruction of Solar Coronal Mass Ejections Based on the Gibson-Low Model
DOI: 10.3847/1538-4357/ac3eda Bibcode: 2022ApJ...925...24D

Dai, Xinghua

The analytic Gibson-Low (GL) model, a time-dependent self-similar solution of the magnetohydrodynamics, is first used to directly reconstruct a coronal mass ejection (CME) through the method of forward modeling in this study. A systematic description of the GL model is presented at the beginning, and a set of parameters is introduced to define the…

The Physical Properties of Star-forming Galaxies with Strong [O III] Lines at z = 3.25
DOI: 10.3847/1538-4357/ac7392 Bibcode: 2022ApJ...933...50W

Fang, Min; Zheng, Xian Zhong; Xu, Haiguang +13 more

We present an analysis of physical properties of 34 [O III] emission-line galaxies (ELGs) at z = 3.254 ± 0.029 in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South (ECDFS). These ELGs are selected from deep narrow H2S(1) and broad K s imaging of 383 arcmin2 obtained with CFHT/WIRCam. We construct spectral energy distributions …

The Curious Case of the "Heartworm" Nebula
DOI: 10.3847/1538-4357/ac6fd3 Bibcode: 2022ApJ...934...78C

Heywood, I.; Camilo, F.; Predehl, P. +9 more

The curious Galactic features near G357.2-0.2 were observed with the MeerKAT radio interferometer array in the UHF and L bands (0.56-1.68 GHz). There are two possibly related features: a newly identified faint heart-shaped partial shell (the "heart"), and a series of previously known but now much better imaged narrow, curved features (the "worm") …

Dust Mass Associated with the Supernova Remnant IC 443 When Emission Meets Extinction
DOI: 10.3847/1538-4357/ac5325 Bibcode: 2022ApJ...927..226L

Jiang, Biwei; Zhao, He; Li, Jun

The dust mass of the well-known supernova remnant IC 443 is estimated from both the infrared emission and the visual extinction. With photometry to the images taken by Spitzer, WISE, IRAS, AKARI, and Planck, the spectral energy distribution (SED) of the dust is obtained after subtracting synchrotron radiation and considering the spectral line emis…

Dynamical Origin for the Collinder 132-Gulliver 21 Stream: A Mixture of Three Comoving Populations with an Age Difference of 250 Myr
DOI: 10.3847/2041-8213/ac8e68 Bibcode: 2022ApJ...937L...7P

Tang, Shih-Yun; Pang, Xiaoying; Wang, Long +6 more

We use Gaia DR3 data to study the Collinder 132-Gulliver 21 region via the machine-learning algorithm STARGO and find eight subgroups of stars (ASCC 32, Collinder 132 gp 1-6, Gulliver 21) located in close proximity. Three comoving populations were identified among these eight subgroups: (i) a coeval 25 Myr old moving group (Collinder 132), (ii) an…

Convolutional Neural Networks for Searching Superflares from Pixel-level Data of the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite
DOI: 10.3847/1538-4357/ac7f2c Bibcode: 2022ApJ...935...90T

Tu, Zuo-Lin; Wang, F. Y.; Wu, Qin +3 more

In this work, six convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been trained based on 15,638 superflare candidates on solar-type stars, which are collected from the three years of Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) observations. These networks are used to replace the manually visual inspection, which was a direct way of searching for superfl…

Various Activities above Sunspot Light Bridges in IRIS Observations: Classification and Comparison
DOI: 10.3847/1538-4357/ac5912 Bibcode: 2022ApJ...929...12H

Hou, Yijun; Li, Ting; Yang, Shuhong +3 more

Light bridges (LBs) are among the most striking substructures in sunspots, where various activities have been revealed by recent high-resolution observations from the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS). Based on the variety of their physical properties, we classified these activities into four distinct categories: transient brightening (…

Searching for Stellar and Planetary Emission in Large Field-of-view Radio Sky Surveys
DOI: 10.3847/1538-4357/ac4514 Bibcode: 2022ApJ...926..228L

Lazio, T. Joseph W.; Isella, Andrea; Ling, Jason +1 more

Detection of low-frequency (≤1.4 GHz) radio emission from stellar and planetary systems can lead to new insights into stellar activity, extrasolar space weather, and planetary magnetic fields. In this work, we investigate three large field-of-view surveys at 74 MHz, 150 MHz, and 1.4 GHz, as well as a myriad of multiwavelength ancillary data, to se…
