Large-scale KHI waves with vortex formation were observed from 6 to 14 solar radii in the upper corona during a fast CME, with growth rate qualitatively matching theoretical predictions.
Wind data over two solar cycles shows the phase lag between A_He and SSN increases monotonically with v_SW; after lag correction, A_He matches at fixed SSN across phases and speeds.
An optimization algorithm determines the optimal source surface radius for PFSS models by minimizing MSE against PSP radial field data from encounters 1-19 after backmapping, yielding increasing R_ss from solar minimum into cycle 25 ascending phase with improved open flux agreement.
Solar Orbiter data reveals SEP flux deflections associated with magnetic flux tubes, positioning SEPs as a diagnostic for solar wind structures.
Four Solar Orbiter interplanetary shocks show energetic particle pressure dominating upstream, indicating particle-mediated modification of collisionless shocks.
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.
Statistical multipoint observations indicate ICME shock acceleration efficiency increases with heliocentric distance up to 0.7 AU before decreasing.
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.
Hybrid simulations of tearing reconnection show magnetic energy converts to ion bulk flows and heating in the nonlinear phase, with island contraction driving parallel ion temperature anisotropy that firehose instabilities regulate by redistributing energy to the perpendicular direction.
Nonlinear hybrid models of PSP-observed anisotropic hot-beam ion VDFs produce combined ion-cyclotron and magnetosonic instabilities whose nonlinear stage yields qualitative agreement with observed hammerhead distributions.
MHD modeling of the 2024 October 26 CME demonstrates that specific pre-eruptive magnetic flux rope footpoint locations and near-real-time background fields are required to reproduce observed complex morphology from multiple viewpoints without fine-tuning.
Radio wave distortion effects serve as established probes of solar corona and wind turbulence parameters, with SKA expected to expand observational capabilities.
