Self-Consistent Heating of the Magnetically Closed Solar Corona: Generation of Nanoflares, Thermodynamic Response of the Plasma and Observational Signatures
Craig D. Johnston, Lars K. S. Daldorff, James A. Klimchuk +5
The energy that heats the magnetically closed solar corona originates in the complex motions of the massive photosphere. Turbulent photospheric convection slowly displaces the foot…
Filament Mass Losses Forced by Magnetic Reconnection in the Solar Corona
Craig D. Johnston, Lars K. S. Daldorff, Peter W. Schuck +4
Recent observations of the solar atmosphere in cool extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lines have reported the prevalence of coronal rain falling from coronal cloud filaments that are assoc…
Modeling Time-Variable Elemental Abundances in Coronal Loop Simulations
Jeffrey W. Reep, John Unverferth, Will T. Barnes +1
Numerous recent X-ray observations of coronal loops in both active regions (ARs) and solar flares have shown clearly that elemental abundances vary with time. Over the course of a…
Determining the nanoflare heating frequency of an X-ray Bright Point observed by MaGIXS
Biswajit Mondal, P. S. Athiray, Amy R. Winebarger +18
Nanoflares are thought to be one of the prime candidates that can heat the solar corona to its multi-million kelvin temperature. Individual nanoflares are difficult to detect with…
Nanoflare Diagnostics from Magnetohydrodynamic Heating Profiles
Kalman J. Knizhnik, Will T. Barnes, Jeffrey W. Reep +1
The nanoflare paradigm of coronal heating has proven extremely promising for explaining the presence of hot, multi-million degree loops in the solar corona. In this paradigm, local…
