Order of magnitude variations in relative elemental abundances are observed in the solar corona and solar wind. The instruments aboard SOHO make it possible to explore these variations in detail to determine whether they arise near the solar surface or higher in the corona. A substantial enhancement of low First Ionization Potential (FIP) elements relative to high FIP elements is often seen in ...

In this paper the dissipation of ion cyclotron resonant waves in the extended solar corona is Alfve n examined in detail. For the Ðrst time, the wave damping arising from more than 2000 low-abundance ion species is taken into account. Useful approximations for the computation of coronal ionization equilibria for elements heavier than nickel are presented. Also, the Sobolev approximation from t...

This paper concisely summarizes and critically reviews recent work by the authors on models of the heating of the solar corona by resonance of ions with high-frequency waves (up to the proton cyclotron frequency). The quasilinear theory of pitch angle diffusion is presented in connection with relevant solar wind proton observations. Hybrid fluid-kinetic model equations, which include wave-parti...

Solar wind measurements show that the helium abundance in the outer solar atmosphere is not constant. Recent research has isolated some of the physical mechanisms that determine helium abundance variations along an open magnetic field line: gravitational settling in both the chromosphere and corona tends to transport helium downward, while the thermal force in the transition region and the drag...

The solar wind was originally envisioned using a simple dipolar corona/polar coronal hole sources picture, but modern observations and models, together with the recent unusual solar cycle minimum, have demonstrated the limitations of this picture. The solar surface fields in both polar and low-to-mid-latitude active region zones routinely produce coronal magnetic fields and related solar wind s...

We solve the problem of propagation and dissipation of Alfvénic turbulence in a model solar atmosphere consisting of a static photosphere and chromosphere, transition region, and open corona and solar wind, using a phenomenological model for the turbulent dissipation based on wave reflection. We show that most of the dissipation for a given wave-frequency spectrum occurs in the lower corona, an...

20375 Received ; accepted – 2 – ABSTRACT We present in this Letter the first coordinated radio occultation measurements and ultraviolet observations of the inner corona below 5.5 R s , obtained during the Galileo solar conjunction in January 1997, to establish the origin of the slow solar wind. Limits on the flow speed are derived from the Doppler dimming of the resonantly scattered component o...

We investigate the occurrence of a coronal dimming using a combination of high resolution spectro-polarimetric, spectral and broadband images which span from the deep photosphere into the corona. These observations reinforce the belief that coronal dimmings, or transient coronal holes as they are also known, are indeed the locations of open magnetic flux in the corona resulting from the launch ...

We present a comprehensive model of the global properties of Alfvén waves in the solar atmosphere and the fast solar wind. Linear non-WKB wave transport equations are solved from the photosphere to a distance past the orbit of the Earth, and for wave periods ranging from 3 s to 3 days. We derive a radially varying power spectrum of kinetic and magnetic energy fluctuations for waves propagating ...

The solar corona is the hot, ionized outer atmosphere of the Sun. Coronal plasma expands into interplanetary space as a supersonic bulk outflow known as the solar wind. This tenuous and unbounded medium is a unique laboratory for the study of kinetic theory in a nearly collisionless plasma, as well as magnetohydrodynamic waves, shocks, and jets. Particle velocity distributions in the solar wind...
