Oral

We have analyzed combined coronal observations acquired by Metis and the Extreme Ultraviolet Imager (EUI) on Solar Orbiter, to infer typical physical parameters of the streamer belt, fundamental to better characterize the physical structure and properties of the slow solar-wind sources and to constrain global coronal models.
This work aims to derive a set of physical parameters of streamers...

19. Evolution of the streamer belt and magnetic-field topology in the middle corona: the Metis coronagraph point of view

Oral

The analysis of the variability of the streamer belt and coronal magnetic field topology is one of the key questions listed among the scientific objectives of the Metis coronagraph, on board the Solar Orbiter spacecraft. To address this science question, we selected a set of polarised visible-light data (VL-pB) that Metis acquired in the first two years of the Nominal Mission Phase (i.e., from...
