Effects of the chromospheric Lyα line profile shape on the determination of the solar wind HI outflow velocity using the Doppler dimming technique

G. E. Capuano, S. Dolei, D. Spadaro +15

The determination of solar wind outflow velocity is fundamental in order to probe the mechanisms of wind acceleration in the corona. We aim to study, via the Doppler dimming techni…

Spectral signatures of chromospheric condensation in a major solar flare

David R. Graham, Gianna Cauzzi, Luca Zangrilli +3

We study the evolution of chromospheric line and continuum emission during the impulsive phase of the X-class SOL2014-09-10T17:45 solar flare. We extend previous analyses of this f…

Evolution of active region outflows throughout an active region lifetime

L. Zangrilli, G. Poletto

We have shown previously that SOHO/UVCS data allow us to detect active region (AR) outflows at coronal altitudes higher than those reached by other instrumentation. These outflows…
