The Solar Close Observations and Proximity Experiments (SCOPE) mission

Jun Lin, Jing Feng, Zhenhua Ge +31

The Solar Close Observations and Proximity Experiments (SCOPE) mission will send a spacecraft into the solar atmosphere at a low altitude of just 5 R_sun from the solar center. It…

Three dimensional magnetic reconnection mediated with plasmoids and the resulted multi-thermal emissions in the cool atmosphere of the Sun

Guanchong Cheng, Lei Ni, Robert Cameron +3

Flux emergence is ubiquitous in the Sun's lower atmosphere, where the emerging magnetic flux can reconnect with the pre-existing magnetic field. We investigate plasmoid formation a…

The effect of plasma- on the heating mechanisms during magnetic reconnection in partially ionized low solar atmosphere

Abdullah Zafar, Lei Ni, Kaifeng Kang +5

We performed numerical simulations of magnetic reconnection with different strength of magnetic fields from the solar photosphere to the upper chromosphere. The main emphasis is to…

Unraveling the Trigger Mechanism of Explosive Reconnection in Partially Ionized Solar Plasma

Abdullah Zafar, Lei Ni, Jun Lin +1

Plasmoid instability is usually accounted for the onset of fast reconnection events observed in astrophysical plasmas. However, the measured reconnection rate from observations can…

Evidence for Plasmoid-mediated Magnetic Reconnection during a Small-scale Flare in the Partially Ionized Low Solar Atmosphere

Guanchong Cheng, Lei Ni, Zehao Tang +4

Magnetic reconnection plays a crucial role in the energy release process for different kinds of solar eruptions and activities. The rapid solar eruption requires a fast reconnectio…

A magnetic reconnection model for the hot explosion with both ultraviolet and Hα wing emissions

Guanchong Cheng, Lei Ni, Yajie Chen +1

Ellerman bombs (EBs) with significant H wing emissions and ultraviolet bursts (UV bursts) with strong Si IV emissions are two kinds of small transient brightening events that oc…

A Magnetic Reconnection model for Hot Explosions in the Cool Atmosphere of the Sun

Lei Ni, Yajie Chen, Hardi Peter +2

UV bursts and Ellerman bombs are transient brightenings observed in the low solar atmospheres of emerging flux regions. Observations have discovered the cospatial and cotemporal EB…
