TheMiddleCorona

Dedicated to all things middle corona. Use this account to link observations, models & instruments that investigate the middle corona.

Playing around with polarized light coronagraph observations with @s0larish to measure line of sight distances and velocities of solar eruptions. This is prototype software, but its getting there #spaceweather

For LaTeX users writing #Solar & #Heliospheric science papers 📜 I made a page for instrument citations: https://t.co/z2MTrUJqDX
It may be useful, if you want me to add an instrument 🛰️🛰️, or make a change (apologies for errors) then let me know. I do this on a best effort basis.

@MasumiShimojo @SolarPhysicist Will do!

The #AGU23 abstract deadline is approaching. Time to think about submitting an abstract to☀️SH033-Unravelling the Physics of the Middle Corona☀️looking forward to abstracts spanning the EM spectrum🌈incl: instruments, models, & observations (esp eclipse)

Ooh, a lovely portrait of me at in polarized light from the total eclipse in Australia! I think everybody will agree I’m looking 🤩🤩🤩!

SwRI-led team successfully observes Australian eclipse in preparation for 2024 U.S. eclipse

My first cover photo! I’m looking good! 😎

#SolarPhysics followers, here’s a great opportunity to work on some important data in a great institute (and with outstanding benefits!): https://t.co/SsNsgPz1gC

[dan seaton phd 🏔🚴🏼‍♂️⛷☀️ @dbseaton]

Our little paper about the role of the #MiddleCorona in generating structure in the solar wind made the @washingtonpost! https://t.co/yT3e2rIa3U

Scientists are finally peering inside the sun's middle corona https://t.co/e3JB5iqzOO

[dan seaton phd 🏔🚴🏼‍♂️⛷☀️ @dbseaton]

This is a great opportunity for somebody (like me) who really likes do geek out over data in my former group at NOAA NCEI. If you are a heliophysicist who wants to be part of an awesome team in Boulder, check this out: https://t.co/yTAX13XY7i

@dbseaton Hey, did somebody say my name???🤩

[Dr. Ritesh Patel @s0larish]

@dbseaton @SolarPhysicist @NWSSWPC @MissionSoho @erikapal @ydnad0 @Dr_Lucie @dipu_iia 1.5 months (Nov-Dec) of the active Sun and the activity continues. GOES/SUVI 171 and LASCO/C2 FOVs combined here. So many CMEs, flows, and much more, seems like 'The Way of Plasma' 😁.

[ARCHIVED - NASA Sun & Space @NASASun]

A continuous solar wind escapes from our Sun – a stream of plasma, or electrified gas, that fills interplanetary space.

But did you know the solar wind comes in two different speeds? 🤔

[dan seaton phd 🏔🚴🏼‍♂️⛷☀️ @dbseaton]

Excited to share this new paper that shows how the structure of the solar wind is born in the #MiddleCorona!

[dan seaton phd 🏔🚴🏼‍♂️⛷☀️ @dbseaton]

A lot of my work on the #MiddleCorona was the result of discoveries we made with SWAP. Seeing them al together on one place really highlights how great SWAP was (and is!) especially for an instrument the size of a shoebox!
