Understanding the Physical Nature of Coronal "EIT Waves"

David M. Long, D. Shaun Bloomfield, Peng-Fei Chen +9

For almost 20 years the physical nature of globally propagating waves in the solar corona (commonly called "EIT waves") has been controversial and subject to debate. Additional the…

The Contribution of Coronal Jets To The Solar Wind

R. Lionello, T. TÖrÖk, V. S. Titov +4

Transient collimated plasma eruptions in the solar corona, commonly known as coronal (or X-ray) jets, are among the most interesting manifestations of solar activity. It has been s…

Closed-Field Coronal Heating Driven by Wave Turbulence

Cooper Downs, Roberto Lionello, Zoran Mikić +2

To simulate the energy balance of coronal plasmas on macroscopic scales, we often require the specification of the coronal heating mechanism in some functional form. To go beyond e…

Solar Coronal Jets: Observations, Theory, and Modeling

N. E. Raouafi, S. Patsourakos, E. Pariat +13

Coronal jets represent important manifestations of ubiquitous solar transients, which may be the source of significant mass and energy input to the upper solar atmosphere and the s…

Diagnostics of Coronal Magnetic Fields Through the Hanle Effect in UV and IR Lines

N. E. Raouafi, P. Riley, S. Gibson +2

The plasma thermodynamics in the solar upper atmosphere, particularly in the corona, are dominated by the magnetic field, which controls the flow and dissipation of energy. The rel…

Deriving the properties of coronal pressure fronts in 3-D: application to the 17 May 2012 ground level enhancement

Alexis P. Rouillard, Illya Plotnikov, Rui F. Pinto +12

We study the link between an expanding coronal shock and the energetic particles measured near Earth during the Ground Level Enhancement (GLE) of 17 May 2012. We developed a new te…
