Energy Transport and Heating by Non-Thermal Electrons in a Turbulent Solar Flare Environment

A. Gordon Emslie, Eduard P. Kontar

The impulsive phase of a solar flare is known to generate strong turbulence and to transfer magnetic energy into accelerated electrons. Recognizing the importance of angular diffus…

Solar flares as electron accelerators: toward a resolution of the acceleration efficiency issue

Anna Volpara, Paolo Massa, Michele Piana +2

A major open issue concerning the active Sun is the effectiveness with which magnetic reconnection accelerates electrons in flares. A paper published by {\em{Nature}} in 2022 used…

An Event Horizon 'Firewall' Undergoing Cosmological Expansion

R N Henriksen, A G Emslie

We embed an object with a singular horizon structure, reminiscent of (but fundamentally different from, except in a limiting case) a black-hole event horizon, in an expanding, sphe…

Variation of the electron flux spectrum along a solar flare loop as inferred from STIX hard X-ray observations

Anna Volpara, Paolo Massa, Sam Krucker +3

Regularized imaging spectroscopy was introduced for the construction of electron flux images at different energies from count visibilities recorded by the Reuven Ramaty High Energy…

Coronal hard X-ray sources revisited

Brian R. Dennis, Miguel A. Duval-Poo, Michele Piana +4

This paper reports on the re-analysis of solar flares in which the hard X-rays (HXRs) come predominantly from the corona rather than from the more usual chromospheric footpoints. A…
