On the faintest solar coronal hard X-rays observed with FOXSI

Juan Camilo Buitrago-Casas, Lindsay Glesener, Steven Christe +23

Solar nanoflares are small eruptive events releasing magnetic energy in the quiet corona. If nanoflares follow the same physics as their larger counterparts, they should emit hard…
