The role of ambipolar heating in the energy balance of solar prominences
Llorenç Melis, Roberto Soler
Solar prominence threads are typically located around magnetic dips, where cold and dense plasma is suspended against gravity in the hot corona thanks to the upward magnetic force.…
Alfvén wave propagation in the partially ionized lower solar atmosphere: a test of the single-fluid approximation
Roberto Soler
Alfvén waves are widely believed to play an important role in the transport of energy from the solar photosphere to the corona through the partially ionized chromosphere. In previo…
Reevaluating thermal instability in a uniform plasma: an extended analysis of instability domains
Varsha Felsy, Ramon Oliver, Jaume Terradas +3
Thermal instability plays a crucial role in the dynamics of astrophysical plasmas. Building upon the foundational work of G. B. Field (1965) and the subsequent analysis by T. Water…
Role of magnetic shear distribution on the formation of eruptive flux ropes
Samrat Sen, Sushree S Nayak, Patrick Antolin
Erupting flux ropes play crucial role in powering a wide range of solar transients, including flares, jets, and coronal mass ejections. These events are driven by the release of st…
Alfven wave propagation from the photosphere to the corona: temporal evolution against stationary results
Roberto Soler
Recent observations have confirmed that a significant fraction of the coronal Alfvenic wave spectrum originates in the photosphere. These waves travel from the photosphere to the c…
Understanding coronal rain dynamics through a point-mass model
Andrew Hillier, Ramon Oliver, David Martínez-Gómez
Observations and simulations of coronal rain show that as cold and dense plasma falls through the corona it initially undergoes acceleration by gravity before the downward velocity…
