The acceleration of the jet response observed in AIA observations

We present an overview on observations of SDO/AIA coronal jets and their role in the heliosphere. We particularly focus on the study of their initiation and early evolution through a detailed analysis of multi-temperature, high-cadence observations. The visibility of the jets and the determination of their kinematical parameters is greatly improved via wavelet-cleaning and -enhancing of the data, which in turn allow us to probe the detailed evolution of jet plasma as it propagates into the solar corona. Constraints on the contribution of jets to the solar wind will also be outlined.
