Abstract Launched on 12 Aug. 2018, NASA's Parker Solar Probe had completed 13 of its
scheduled 24 orbits around the Sun by Nov. 2022. The mission's primary science goal is to …

One characteristic trait of space plasmas is the multi-scale dynamics resulting from non-
linear transfers and conversions of various forms of energy. Routinely evidenced in a range …

The high temperatures and strong magnetic fields of the solar corona form streams of solar
wind that expand through the Solar System into interstellar space. At 09: 33 UT on 28 April …

The fast solar wind that fills the heliosphere originates from deep within regions of open
magnetic field on the Sun called 'coronal holes'. The energy source responsible for …

After leaving the Sun's corona, the solar wind continues to accelerate and cools, but more
slowly than expected for a freely expanding adiabatic gas. Alfvén waves are perturbations of …

Switchbacks are sudden, large radial deflections of the solar wind magnetic field, widely
revealed in interplanetary space by the Parker Solar Probe. The switchbacks' formation …

We provide a simple geometric explanation for the source of switchbacks and associated
large and one-sided transverse flows in the solar wind observed by the Parker Solar Probe …

One of the most important early results from the Parker Solar Probe (PSP) is the ubiquitous
presence of magnetic switchbacks, whose origin is under debate. Using a three-dimensional …

The solar wind is known to be highly structured in space and time. Observations from Parker
Solar Probe have revealed an abundance of so-called magnetic switchbacks within the near …
