The Closest View of a Fast Coronal Mass Ejection: How Faulty Assumptions Near Perihelion Lead to Unrealistic Interpretations of PSP/WISPR Observations
We report on the closest view of a coronal mass ejection (CME) observed by the Parker Solar Probe (PSP)/ Wide-field Imager for Parker Solar PRobe (WISPR) instrument on 2022 September 5, when PSP was traversing from a distance of 15.3 to 13.5 R _⊙ from the Sun. The CME leading edge and an arc-shaped...
