Flows and Nonthermal Velocities in Solar Active Regions Observed with the EUV Imaging Spectrometer on Hinode: A Tracer of Active Region Sources of Heliospheric Magnetic Fields? (2008, background): “Some of the Doppler results of this paper are similar to those found by Harra et al. (2008), who also analyzed flows in an active region discussed previously by Sakao et al. (2007), and these authors suggest that the flows might contribute to the solar wind.”
Standing Slow-Mode Waves in Hot Coronal Loops: Observations, Modeling, and Coronal Seismology (2010, background): “…observed with TRACE and EIT may not be the waves but likely quasi-periodically triggered upflows by episodic heating events based on the Hinode/EIS observations (Sakao et al. 2007; Harra et al. 2008; McIntosh & De Pontieu 2009; McIntosh et al. 2010; He et al. 2010; De Pontieu & McIntosh 2010).”
Slow Solar Wind: Observations and Modeling (2016, unknown): “Harra et al. (2008) found that there are large loops connecting from the active region to a nearby bipole through magnetic modeling indicating that the upflows are due to expansion of large loops.”
Origins of the Ambient Solar Wind: Implications for Space Weather (2017, background): “Images and spectra of active regions show rapid flows with speeds of at least 100 km s−1 along their fanned-out edges (e.g., Harra et al. 2008; Brooks and Warren 2011; Morgan 2013; Zangrilli and Poletto 2016).”
