The STEREO Mission: An Introduction
M. L. Kaiser,Therese A. Kucera,Joseph M. Davila,O. C. St. Cyr,Madhulika Guhathakurta,E. R. Christian +5 more
TL;DR: The twin STEREO spacecraft were launched on October 26, 2006, at 00:52 UT from Kennedy Space Center aboard a Delta 7925 launch vehicle to understand the causes and mechanisms of coronal mass ejection (CME) initiation and follow the propagation of CMEs through the inner heliosphere to Earth as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physics of Solar Prominences: I-Spectral Diagnostics and Non-LTE Modelling
Nicolas Labrosse,P. Heinzel,Jean-Claude Vial,Therese A. Kucera,S. Parenti,Stanislav Gunár,Brigitte Schmieder,G. Kilper +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the spectral inversion technique has been used to infer the plasma parameters important for the general properties of the prominence plasma in both its cool core and the hotter prominence-corona transition region.

Sarah Gibson,Therese A. Kucera,D. Rastawicki,James B. Dove,G. de Toma,Jialong Hao,S. M. Hill,Hugh S. Hudson,Christophe Marqué,P. S. McIntosh,L. A. Rachmeler,Katharine K. Reeves,Brigitte Schmieder,Donald Schmit,Daniel B. Seaton,Alphonse C. Sterling,Durgesh Tripathi,David R. Williams,Mei Zhang +18 more
TL;DR: In this article, a three-dimensional density model of coronal prominence cavities and a morphological fit that has been tightly constrained by a uniquely well-observed cavity was presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
FORWARD: A Toolset for Multiwavelength Coronal Magnetometry
Sarah Gibson,Therese A. Kucera,Stephen M. White,James B. Dove,Yuhong Fan,Blake Christopher Forland,Laurel A. Rachmeler,Laurel A. Rachmeler,Cooper Downs,Katharine K. Reeves +9 more
TL;DR: ForWARD as discussed by the authors is a toolset for coronal magnetometry that enables forward fitting of specific observations, and helps to build intuition into how the physical properties of coronal magnetic structures translate to observable properties.
