A solar coronal loop in a box: Energy generation and heating
C. Breu, H. Peter, R. Cameron +4
Coronal loops are the basic building block of the upper solar atmosphere. Comprehending how these are energized, structured, and evolve is key to understanding stellar coronae. Her…
Coronal Condensation as the Source of Transition Region Supersonic Downflows above a Sunspot
Hechao Chen, Hui Tian, Leping Li +3
Plasma loops or plumes rooted in sunspot umbrae often harbor downflows with speeds of 100 km/s. These downflows are supersonic at transition region temperatures of 0.1 MK. The sour…
Propagating brightenings in small loop-like structures in the quiet Sun corona: Observations from Solar Orbiter/EUI
Sudip Mandal, Hardi Peter, Lakshmi Pradeep Chitta +6
Brightenings observed in the solar extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) images are generally interpreted as signatures of micro- or nanoflares occurring at the transition region or coronal te…
First observations from the SPICE EUV spectrometer on Solar Orbiter
A. Fludra, M. Caldwell, A. Giunta +28
We present first science observations taken during the commissioning activities of the Spectral Imaging of the Coronal Environment (SPICE) instrument on the ESA/NASA Solar Orbiter…
Capturing transient plasma flows and jets in the solar corona
L. P. Chitta, S. K. Solanki, H. Peter +8
Intensity bursts in ultraviolet (UV) to X-ray wavelengths and plasma jets are typical signatures of magnetic reconnection and the associated impulsive heating of the solar atmosphe…
Formation of a solar filament by magnetic reconnection and coronal condensation
Leping Li, Hardi Peter, Lakshmi Pradeep Chitta +1
In solar filament formation mechanisms, magnetic reconnection between two sets of sheared arcades forms helical structures of the filament with numerous magnetic dips, and cooling…
