Vacuum Ultraviolet Photoabsorption Spectra of Icy Isoprene and its Oligomers

R Ramachandran, S Pavithraa, J K Meka +8

Isoprene and its oligomers, terpenes, are expected to be present, along with other complex organic molecules, in the diverse environments of the ISM and in our solar system. Due to…

Multi-wavelength observations of a B-class flare using XSM, AIA, and XRT

Yamini K. Rao, B. Mondal, Giulio Del Zanna +5

We present multi-wavelength observations by Chandrayaan-2/XSM, SDO/AIA and Hinode/XRT of a B-class flare observed on 25th February, 2021, originating from an active region (AR 1280…

Turbulence dynamics and flow speeds in the inner solar corona: Results from radio-sounding experiments by the Akatsuki spacecraft

Richa N. Jain, R. K. Choudhary, Anil Bhardwaj +3

The solar inner corona is a region that plays a critical role in energizing the solar wind and propelling it to supersonic and supra-Alfvenic velocities. Despite its importance, th…

Role of small-scale impulsive events in heating the X-ray bright points of the quiet Sun

Biswajit Mondal, James A Klimchuk, Santosh V. Vadawale +6

Small-scale impulsive events, known as nanoflares, are thought to be one of the prime candidates that can keep the solar corona hot at its multi-million Kelvin temperature. Individ…

Evolution of elemental abundances in hot active region cores from Chandrayaan-2 XSM observations

Biswajit Mondal, Santosh V. Vadawale, Giulio Del Zanna +5

The First Ionization Potential (FIP) bias, whereby elemental abundances for low FIP elements in different coronal structures vary from their photospheric values and may also vary w…
