Reduction of the downward energy flux of non-thermal electrons in the solar flare corona due to co-spatial return current losses

Meriem Alaoui, Gordon D. Holman, Marc Swisdak

High energy electrons carry much of a solar flare's energy. Therefore, understanding changes in electron beam distributions during their propagation is crucial. A key focus of this…

Next-Generation Comprehensive Data-Driven Models of Solar Eruptive Events

Joel C. Allred, Graham S. Kerr, Meriem Alaoui +11

Solar flares and coronal mass ejections are interrelated phenomena that together are known as solar eruptive events. These are the main drivers of space weather and understanding t…

The Focusing Optics X-ray Solar Imager (FOXSI)

Steven Christe, Meriem Alaoui, Joel Allred +26

FOXSI is a direct-imaging, hard X-ray (HXR) telescope optimized for solar flare observations. It detects hot plasma and energetic electrons in and near energy release sites in the…

Fundamentals of impulsive energy release in the corona

Albert Y. Shih, Lindsay Glesener, Säm Krucker +30

It is essential that there be coordinated and co-optimized observations in X-rays, gamma-rays, and EUV during the peak of solar cycle 26 (~2036) to significantly advance our unders…

Magnetic Energy Powers the Corona: How We Can Understand its 3D Storage & Release

Amir Caspi, Daniel B. Seaton, Roberto Casini +12

The coronal magnetic field is the prime driver behind many as-yet unsolved mysteries: solar eruptions, coronal heating, and the solar wind, to name a few. It is, however, still poo…
