Force-free field modeling of twist and braiding-induced magnetic energy in an active-region corona

J. K. Thalmann, S. K. Tiwari, T. Wiegelmann

The theoretical concept that braided magnetic field lines in the solar corona may dissipate a sufficient amount of energy to account for the brightening observed in the active-regi…

Predicting the Sun's Polar Magnetic Fields with a Surface Flux Transport Model

Lisa Upton, David H. Hathaway

The Sun's polar magnetic fields are directly related to solar cycle variability. The strength of the polar fields at the start (minimum) of a cycle determine the subsequent amplitu…

Evidence for Solar Tether-cutting Magnetic Reconnection from Coronal Field Extrapolations

Chang Liu, Na Deng, Jeongwoo Lee +3

Magnetic reconnection is one of the primary mechanisms for triggering solar eruptive events, but direct observation of its rapid process has been of challenge. In this Letter we pr…

Coronal-Temperature-Diagnostic Capability of the Hinode/X-Ray Telescope Based on Self-Consistent Calibration. II. Calibration with on-Orbit Data

Noriyuki Narukage, Taro Sakao, Ryouhei Kano +4

The X-Ray Telescope (XRT) onboard the Hinode satellite is an X-ray imager that observes the solar corona with the capability of diagnosing coronal temperatures from less than 1 MK…

Anti-parallel EUV flows observed along active region filament threads with Hi-C

Caroline E. Alexander, Robert W. Walsh, Stephane Regnier +12

Plasma flows within prominences/filaments have been observed for many years and hold valuable clues concerning the mass and energy balance within these structures. Previous observa…

Structure of solar coronal loops: from miniature to large-scale

H. Peter, S. Bingert, J. A. Klimchuk +6

We will use new data from the High-resolution Coronal Imager (Hi-C) with unprecedented spatial resolution of the solar corona to investigate the structure of coronal loops down to…

Observing coronal nanoflares in active region moss

Paola Testa, Bart De Pontieu, Juan Martinez-Sykora +12

The High-resolution Coronal Imager (Hi-C) has provided Fe XII 193A images of the upper transition region moss at an unprecedented spatial (~0.3-0.4 arcsec) and temporal (5.5s) reso…

High Spatial Resolution Observations of Loops in the Solar Corona

David H. Brooks, Harry P. Warren, Ignacio Ugarte-Urra +1

Understanding how the solar corona is structured is of fundamental importance to determining how the Sun's upper atmosphere is heated to high temperatures. Recent spectroscopic stu…

A Curious History of Sunspot Penumbrae

D. H. Hathaway

Daily records of sunspot group areas compiled by the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, from May of 1874 through 1976 indicate a curious history for the penumbral areas of the smaller s…

Hemispheric Asymmetries of Solar Photospheric Magnetism: Radiative, Particulate, and Heliospheric Impacts

Scott W. McIntosh, Robert J. Leamon, Joseph B. Gurman +7

Among many other measurable quantities the summer of 2009 saw a considerable low in the radiative output of the Sun that was temporally coincident with the largest cosmic ray flux…
