The SERPENTINE consortium observed directly the first 100 shock waves of Solar Cycle 25

Interplanetary (IP) shock waves are efficient “natural particle accelerators” and fundamental constituents of the heliosphere, where they propagate due to solar activity phenomena such as Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs). The SERPENTINE consortium is exploiting the observational window provided by the…

A possible new scenario for widespread solar energetic particle events

An exhaustive multi-spacecraft analysis of the 17 April 2021 event revealed that multiple distinct SEP injections at the Sun played a major role in creating the wide longitudinal spread of solar energetic particles (SEPs) in the inner heliosphere. This points…
