Leading boundary of a coronal hole has higher plasma temperature, stronger unipolar field, and lower spatial irregularity than trailing boundary due to organized loops versus dispersed bipoles.
Polytropic stellar wind models are extended beyond extreme adiabatic cases to non-adiabatic localized heating, with added energy shown plausible relative to flares and relevant to solar wind observations.
Time-dependent MHD models of the corona-heliosphere system produce magnetic connectivities consistent with observed strahl occurrence rates, unlike steady-state models.
Observational evidence points to the chromosphere as the site of chemical fractionation responsible for the FIP effect in the solar corona.
