In situ measurements of the solar wind and remote observations of coronal holes have
strongly implicated the resonant interaction with ion cyclotron waves as the responsible …

Coronal holes are the lowest density plasma components of the Sun's outer atmosphere,
and are associated with rapidly expanding magnetic fields and the acceleration of the high …

Photoionization heating from ultraviolet (UV) radiation incidents on the atmospheres of hot
Jupiters may drive planetary mass loss. Observations of stellar Lyman-α (Lyα) absorption …

Magnetohydrodynamic simulations are performed for torsional Alfvén waves propagating
along an open magnetic flux tube in the solar atmosphere. It is shown that, if the root mean …

The objective of this paper is to explore the application of a six-component overset grid to
solar wind simulation with a three-dimensional (3D) Solar-InterPlanetary Conservation …

There are compelling observations of a clear anticorrelation between solar wind flow speed
and coronal electron temperature, as determined from solar wind ionic charge states. A …

In order to address two of the principal scientific objectives of the Solar and Heliospheric
Observatory (SOHO), studies of the heating mechanisms of the solar corona and the …

There has been a revolution in understanding the nature of the Sun's atmosphere that has
been stimulated by high-resolution satellite observations together with the realisation that …

Recent observations of the Ly α λ 1216, Mg X λ 625, and O VI λ 1038 spectral lines carried
out with the Ultraviolet Coronagraph Spectrometer (UVCS) on board SOHO at distances in …

We present a new compressible MHD model for simulating the three-dimensional structure
of the solar wind under steady state conditions. The initial potential magnetic field is …
