Interchange reconnection dynamics in a solar coronal pseudo-streamer (2023)
Journal Article
Pellegrin-Frachon, T., Masson, S., Pariat, E., Wyper, P., & DeVore, C. (2023). Interchange reconnection dynamics in a solar coronal pseudo-streamer. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 675, Article A55. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202245611

Context. The generation of the slow solar wind is still an open problem in heliophysics. One of the existing theories to explain the injection of coronal plasma in the interplanetary medium is based on interchange reconnection: the exchange of magnet...

Plasmoids, Flows, and Jets during Magnetic Reconnection in a Failed Solar Eruption (2023)
Journal Article
Kumar, P., T. Karpen, J., Antiochos, S. K., DeVore, C. R., Wyper, P. F., & Cho, K. (2023). Plasmoids, Flows, and Jets during Magnetic Reconnection in a Failed Solar Eruption. Astrophysical Journal, 943(2), Article 156. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/acaea4

We report a detailed analysis of a failed eruption and flare in active region 12018 on 2014 April 3 using multiwavelength observations from the Solar Dynamics Observatory/Atmospheric Imaging Assembly, IRIS, STEREO, and Hinode/Solar Optical Telescope....

Comparison of magnetic energy and helicity in coronal jet simulations (2023)
Journal Article
Pariat, E., Wyper, P., & Linan, L. (2023). Comparison of magnetic energy and helicity in coronal jet simulations. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 669, Article A33. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202245142

Context. While non-potential (free) magnetic energy is a necessary element of any active phenomenon in the solar corona, its role as a marker of the trigger of the eruptive process remains elusive. Meanwhile, recent analyses of numerical simulations... Read More about Comparison of magnetic energy and helicity in coronal jet simulations.
