Recent studies of interstellar neutral (ISN) hydrogen observed by the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) suggested that the present understanding of the radiation pressure acting on hydrogen atoms in the heliosphere should be revised.…
We update the SOHO/SWAN H Lyman-alpha brightness analysis to cover the 1996-2008 time interval. A forward model applied to the intensity maps provides the latitude and time dependence of the interstellar Hydrogen ionisation rate over more…
We update two kinds of results obtained with the SWAN instrument on board SOHO. First, we use H cell data recorded in 2001 and derive the H flow direction in the same way we performed the study at solar minimum. We compare with the Helium…
We present a study of the solar wind over different periods of the solar cycle, specifically focussing on the minimum between solar cycles 24 and 25, and the active, ascending phase of solar cycle 25. With the use of interplanetary…
In this work, we present for the first time the Lyman $\alpha$ intensities measured by Voyager 1/UVS in 2003-2014 (at 90-130 AU from the Sun). During this period Voyager 1 measured the Lyman $\alpha$ emission in the outer heliosphere at an…
The hydrogen Lyman lines ( 91.2 nm < lambda < 121.6 nm) are significant contributors to the radiative losses of the solar chromosphere, and are enhanced during flares. We have shown previously that the Lyman lines observed by the Extreme…
The strongest known correspondence between ALMA 3mm emission and other solar observations is between the H-alpha line width and 3 mm brightness temperature, while the typical 3-5min p-mode oscillations found in many chromospheric…
The Chromospheric Lyman Alpha Spectropolarimeter (CLASP) observed the Sun in H I Lyman-{\alpha} during a suborbital rocket flight on September 3, 2015. The Interface Region Imaging Telescope (IRIS) coordinated with the CLASP observations…
This review summarizes our current understanding of the outer heliosphere and local interstellar medium (LISM) inferred from observations and modeling of interplanetary Lyman-$\alpha$ emission. The emission is produced by solar Lyman-alpha…
We present a method to derive outflow velocities in the solar corona using different data sets including solar wind mass flux coming from the SWAN/SOHO instrument, electron density values from LASCO-C2 and interplanetary solar wind…
Observation of Interplanetary Scintillation (IPS) provides an important and effective way to study the solar wind and the space weather. A series of IPS observations were conducted by the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio…
Stellar winds interact with the partially ionized interstellar medium (ISM), forming astrospheres. A key feature of this interaction is the hydrogen wall - secondary interstellar atoms produced via charge exchange near the tangential…
Aims. A recent debate on the decade-long stability of the interstellar He flow vector, and in particular the flow longitude, has prompted us to check for any variability in the interstellar H flow vector as observed by the SWAN instrument…
We explore imprints of the solar wind interaction with the local interstellar medium on spectral properties of the backscattered solar Ly-alpha radiation. We employ newly developed effective model for the interstellar H atom velocity…
We use high-resolution UV spectra taken by the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph instrument on board the Hubble Space Telescope to study the 5.5 pc line of sight to the K0 V star 36 Oph A. The one interstellar component detected for this…
We present a formalism that incorporates hydrogen Lyman-alpha (Ly$\alpha$) polarization arising from the scattering of radiation in galaxy halos into the intensity mapping approach. Using the halo model, and emission profiles based on…
We present the results of the observations of the Ly\alpha\ line profiles of 91 emission-line galaxies at z=3.1 with the spectral resolution of \lambda/\delta\lambda (FWHM) = 1700, or 180 km/s. A significant fraction, ~50% of the observed…
The hydrogen \lya\ line and the white-light (WL) continuum are two key diagnostics of energy transport in the lower atmosphere during solar flares, yet their relationship remains poorly understood. Here we present a statistical analysis of…
The chromospheric Lyman-alpha line of neutral hydrogen (\lya; 1216\AA) is the strongest emission line in the solar spectrum. Fluctuations in \lya\ are known to drive changes in planetary atmospheres, although few instruments have had the…
We present a modification of a model of solar cycle evolution of the solar Lyman-alpha line profile, along with a sensitivity study of interstellar neutral H hydrogen to uncertainties in radiation pressure level. The line profile model,…
