Description:
Article Alfvénic waves are oscillations that occur in a plasma threaded by a magnetic field and their propagation, reflection and dissipation is believed to be partly responsible for the solar wind. Here, the authors observe the counter-propagating Alfvénic waves that most models require for solar-wind acceleration. Nature Communications doi: 10.1038/ncomms8813 Authors: R. J. Morton, S.
