H and H emission in a C3.3 solar flare: comparison between observations and simulations

Vincenzo Capparelli, Francesca Zuccarello, Paolo Romano +7

The Hydrogen Balmer series is a basic radiative loss channel from the flaring solar chromosphere. We report here on the analysis of an extremely rare set of simultaneous observatio…

Detection of 3-Minute Oscillations in Full-Disk Ly Emission During A Solar Flare

Ryan O. Milligan, Bernhard Fleck, Jack Ireland +2

In this Letter we report the detection of chromospheric 3-minute oscillations in disk-integrated EUV irradiance observations during a solar flare. A wavelet analysis of detrended L…

Observations of Reconnection Flows in a Flare on the Solar Disk

Juntao Wang, P. J. A. Simoes, N. L. S. Jeffrey +3

Magnetic reconnection is a well-accepted part of the theory of solar eruptive events, though the evidence is still circumstantial. Intrinsic to the reconnection picture of a solar…

Comparing UV/EUV line parameters and magnetic field in a quiescent prominence with tornadoes

P. J. Levens, N. Labrosse, B. Schmieder +2

Context. Understanding the close relationship between the plasma and the magnetic field is important to describe and explain the observed complex dynamics of solar prominences. Aim…

Formation of the thermal infrared continuum in solar flares

Paulo J. A. Simões, Graham S. Kerr, Lyndsay Fletcher +3

Observations of the Sun with the Atacama Large Millimeter Array have now started, and the thermal infrared will regularly be accessible from the NSF's Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telesc…

Non-Gaussian Velocity Distributions in Solar Flares from Extreme Ultraviolet Lines: A Possible Diagnostic of Ion Acceleration

Natasha L. S. Jeffrey, Lyndsay Fletcher, Nicolas Labrosse

In a solar flare, a large fraction of the magnetic energy released is converted rapidly to the kinetic energy of non-thermal particles and bulk plasma motion. This will likely resu…
