Parker solar probe: Four years of discoveries at solar cycle minimum
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 …

Scaling laws for the energy transfer in space plasma turbulence
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 …

Parker Solar Probe Enters the Magnetically Dominated Solar Corona
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 …

Highly structured slow solar wind emerging from an equatorial coronal hole
During the solar minimum, when the Sun is at its least active, the solar wind 1, 2 is observed
at high latitudes as a predominantly fast (more than 500 kilometres per second), highly …

Alfvénic velocity spikes and rotational flows in the near-Sun solar wind
The prediction of a supersonic solar wind was first confirmed by spacecraft near Earth, and
later by spacecraft at heliocentric distances as small as 62 solar radii. These missions …

Interchange reconnection as the source of the fast solar wind within coronal holes
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 …
