Modeling the Formation and Evolution of Solar Wind Microstreams: From Coronal Plumes to Propagating Alfvénic Velocity Spikes

We investigate the origin of mesoscale structures in the solar wind called microstreams, defined as enhancements in the solar wind speed and temperature that last several hours. They were first clearly detected in Helios and Ulysses solar wind data and are now omnipresent in the “young” solar wind m...
