The Sun’s Non-Potential Corona over Solar Cycle 24 (2024)
Journal Article
Yeates, A. R. (2024). The Sun’s Non-Potential Corona over Solar Cycle 24. Solar Physics, 299(6), Article 83. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11207-024-02328-5

The global magnetic field in the solar corona is known to contain free magnetic energy and magnetic helicity above that of a current-free (potential) state. But the strength of this non-potentiality and its evolution over the solar cycle remain uncer... Read More about The Sun’s Non-Potential Corona over Solar Cycle 24.

Transition to a weaker Sun: Changes in the solar atmosphere during the decay of the Modern Maximum (2024)
Journal Article
Mursula, K., Pevtsov, A. A., Asikainen, T., Tähtinen, I., & Yeates, A. R. (2024). Transition to a weaker Sun: Changes in the solar atmosphere during the decay of the Modern Maximum. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 685, Article A170. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202449231

Context. The Sun experienced a period of unprecedented activity during the 20th century, now called the Modern Maximum (MM). The decay of the MM after its maximum in cycle 19 has changed the Sun, the heliosphere, and the planetary environments in man...

A Near-half-century Simulation of the Solar Corona (2024)
Journal Article
Aslanyan, V., Meyer, K. A., Scott, R. B., & Yeates, A. R. (2024). A Near-half-century Simulation of the Solar Corona. Astrophysical Journal Letters, 961(1), Article L3. https://doi.org/10.3847/2041-8213/ad1934

We present an overview of results from a magnetofrictional model of the entire solar corona over a period of 47 yr. The simulation self-consistently reproduces decades of solar phenomena, varying in duration between rapid eruptions and the long-term...
