Prospective Implications of Extreme-ultraviolet Coronal Plumes for Magnetic-network Genesis of Coronal Heating, Coronal-hole Solar Wind, and Solar-wind Magnetic Field Switchbacks

We propose that coronal heating in EUV coronal plumes is weaker, not stronger, than in adjacent nonplume coronal magnetic funnels. This expectation stems from (i) the observation that an EUV plume is born as the magnetic flux at the foot of the plume’s magnetic funnel becomes tightly packed, and (ii...
