Journal Article
Doyle, L., Wyper, P. F., Scullion, E., McLaughlin, J. A., Ramsay, G., & Doyle, J. G. (2019). Observations and 3D Magnetohydrodynamic Modeling of a Confined Helical Jet Launched by a Filament Eruption. Astrophysical Journal, 887(2), Article 246. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/ab5d39

We present a detailed analysis of a confined filament eruption and jet associated with a C1.5 class solar flare. Multiwavelength observations from the Global Oscillations Network Group and Solar Dynamics Observatory reveal the filament forming over s...

First Detection of Plasmoids from Breakout Reconnection on the Sun (2019)
Journal Article
Kumar, P., Karpen, J. T., Antiochos, S. K., Wyper, P. F., & DeVore, C. R. (2019). First Detection of Plasmoids from Breakout Reconnection on the Sun. Astrophysical Journal Letters, 885(1), Article L15. https://doi.org/10.3847/2041-8213/ab45f9

Transient collimated plasma ejections (jets) occur frequently throughout the solar corona, in active regions, quiet Sun, and coronal holes. Although magnetic reconnection is generally agreed to be the mechanism of energy release in jets, the factors... Read More about First Detection of Plasmoids from Breakout Reconnection on the Sun.

Numerical Simulation of Helical Jets at Active Region Peripheries (2019)
Journal Article
Wyper, P. F., DeVore, C. R., & Antiochos, S. K. (2019). Numerical Simulation of Helical Jets at Active Region Peripheries. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 490(3), 3679-3690. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stz2674

Coronal jets are observed above minority polarity intrusions throughout the solar corona. Some of the most energetic occur on the periphery of active regions where the magnetic field is strongly inclined. These jets exhibit a non-radial propagation i...

Magnetic Structures at the Boundary of the Closed Corona: A Semi-automated Study of S-Web Morphology (2019)
Journal Article
Scott, R. B., Pontin, D. I., & Wyper, P. F. (2019). Magnetic Structures at the Boundary of the Closed Corona: A Semi-automated Study of S-Web Morphology. Astrophysical Journal, 882(2), Article 125. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/ab364a

Interchange reconnection is thought to play an important role in driving the dynamics of the slow solar wind. To understand the details of this process, it is important to catalog the various magnetic structures that are present at the boundary betwe...

Exploring Flaring Behaviour on Low Mass Stars, Solar-type Stars and the Sun (2019)
Journal Article

We report on our project to study the activity in both the Sun and low mass stars. Utilising high cadence, Hα observations of a filament eruption made using the CRISP spectropolarimeter mounted on the Swedish Solar Telescope has allowed us to determi...

Multiwavelength Study of Equatorial Coronal-hole Jets (2019)
Journal Article
Kumar, P., Karpen, J. T., Antiochos, S. K., Wyper, P. F., DeVore, C. R., & DeForest, C. E. (2019). Multiwavelength Study of Equatorial Coronal-hole Jets. Astrophysical Journal, 873(1), Article 93. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/ab04af

Jets (transient/collimated plasma ejections) occur frequently throughout the solar corona and contribute mass/energy to the corona and solar wind. By combining numerical simulations and high-resolution observations, we have made substantial progress... Read More about Multiwavelength Study of Equatorial Coronal-hole Jets.

Proton acceleration at tearing coronal null-point current sheets (2019)
Journal Article
Pallister, R., Pontin, D., & Wyper, P. (2019). Proton acceleration at tearing coronal null-point current sheets. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 622, Article A207. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201834284

Context. Non-thermal particle acceleration in the solar corona is thought to constitute a substantial part of the energy budget of explosive events such as solar flares. One well-established mechanism of non-thermal acceleration is directly via field... Read More about Proton acceleration at tearing coronal null-point current sheets.
