Scientists have come a step closer to identifying the origins of the "slow" solar wind.
Solar wind is a continuous outflow of charged plasma particles from the sun into space.
Scientists have for the first time been able to identify more clearly where the slow solar wind originates.
This has helped establish how it is able to leave the sun and begin its journey into the heliosphere.
Heavy Ion Sensor was designed to measure heavy ions in the solar wind, which can be used to determine the origin of a stream of solar wind.
The result confirms that Solar Orbiter is able to make robust connections between solar wind and its source regions on the solar surface.
Each region of the sun can have a unique combination of heavy ions, which determines the chemical composition of a solar wind stream.
