One of the most commonly observed solar radio sources in the metric and decametric wavelengths is the solar noise storm. These are generally associated with active regions and are believed to be powered by the plasma emission mechanism.…
Metrewave solar type-III radio bursts offer a unique means to study the properties of turbulence across the coronal heights.Theoretical models have shown that the apparent intensity and size of the burst sources evolve at sub-second scales…
The amplitude of density turbulence in the extended solar corona, especially near the dissipation scale, impinges on several problems of current interest. Radio sources observed through the turbulent solar wind are broadened due to…
Low frequency radio wave scattering and refraction can have a dramatic effect on the observed size and position of radio sources in the solar corona. The scattering and refraction is thought to be due to fluctuations in electron density…
Solar radio bursts can provide important insights into the underlying physical mechanisms that drive the small and large-scale eruptions on the Sun. Since metric radio observations can give us direct observational access to the inner and…
The recently released spacecraft potential measured by the RPW instrument on-board Solar Orbiter has been used to estimate the solar wind electron density in the inner heliosphere. Solar-wind electron density measured during June 2020 has…
Metric and decametric radio-emissions from the Sun are the only direct source of information about the dynamics of non-thermal electrons in the upper corona. In addition, the combination of spectral and imaging (sizes, shapes, and…
The solar atmosphere displays a sharp temperature gradient, starting from spicules in the chromosphere at $2 \times 10^4$ K, outward into the corona exceeding $10^6$ K. Plasma turbulence produced by the transverse motion of magnetic fields…
We report on the amplitude of the density turbulence spectrum ($C_{N}^{2}$) and the density modulation index ($\delta N/N$) in the solar wind between $10$ and $45 R_{\odot}$. We derive these quantities using a structure function that is…
Angular broadening observations of compact radio sources provide a powerful method for probing the solar corona and solar wind. Such observations enable studies of the phase structure function, turbulence amplitude, intermediate-scale…
This paper presents a preliminary analysis of the turbulence spectrum of the solar wind in the near-Sun region R < 50 Rs, obtained from interplanetary scintillation measurements with the Ooty Radio Telescope at 327 MHz. The results clearly…
Waves are thought to play a significant role in the heating of the solar atmosphere and the acceleration of the wind. Among the many types of waves observed in the Sun, the so-called p-modes with a 3 mHz frequency peak dominate the lower…
We have investigated the degree to which turbulence in the Very Local Interstellar Clouds resembles the highly-studied turbulence in the solar corona and the solar wind. The turbulence diagnostics for the Local Clouds are the absorption…
Knowing the lengthscales at which turbulent fluctuations dissipate is key to understanding the nature of weakly compressible magnetohydrodynamic turbulence. We use radio wavelength interferometric imaging observations which measure the…
Context. The Sun's complex corona is the source of the solar wind and interplanetary magnetic field. While the large scale morphology is well understood, the impact of variations in coronal properties on the scale of a few degrees on…
The ratio of the rms electron density fluctuations to the background density in the solar wind (density modulation index, $\epsilon_{N} \equiv \Delta{N}/N$) is of vital importance in understanding several problems in heliospheric physics…
The scaling of the turbulent spectra provides a key measurement that allows to discriminate between different theoretical predictions of turbulence. In the solar wind, this has driven a large number of studies dedicated to this issue using…
In this paper, I review the results of 3-D evolution of the inner heliosphere over the solar cycle #23, based on observations of interplanetary scintillation (IPS) made at 327 MHz using the Ooty Radio Telescope. The large-scale features of…
Electromagnetic wave scattering off density inhomogeneities in the solar corona is an important process which determines both the apparent source size and the time profile of radio bursts observed at 1 AU. Here we model the scattering…
Solar wind is probably the best laboratory to study turbulence in astrophysical plasmas. In addition to the presence of magnetic field, the differences with neutral fluid isotropic turbulence are: weakness of collisional dissipation and…
