Configurations where two spacecraft, such as Parker Solar Probe (PSP) and Solar Orbiter (SolO), are radially aligned provide opportunities to study the evolution of a single solar wind parcel during so called plasma line-ups. The most…
The properties of the solar wind, as measured in situ throughout the heliosphere, depend both on the characteristics of its coronal source and on the intrinsic processes governing its interplanetary evolution. Recently, radial and Parker…

The quasi-Periodic density structures (PDSs) are quasiperiodic variations of solar wind density ranging from a few minutes to a few hours. They are trains of advected density structures with radial length scales LR in the 100-10,000 Mm…
$PSP$ and $SolO$ data are utilized to investigate magnetic field intermittency in the solar wind (SW). Small-scale intermittency $(20-100d_{i})$ is observed to radially strengthen when methods relying on higher-order moments are considered…

The Solar Wind Electrons Alphas and Protons experiment on the Parker Solar Probe (PSP) mission measures the three-dimensional electron velocity distribution function. We derive the parameters of the core, halo, and strahl populations…
Radio waves are strongly scattered in the solar wind, so that their apparent sources seem to be considerably larger and shifted than the actual ones. Since the scattering depends on the spectrum of density turbulence, better understanding…
