Polarization of decayless kink oscillations in a 3D MHD coronal loop model
Sudip Mandal, Cosima Breu, Hardi Peter
Decayless kink oscillations are frequently observed in solar coronal loops and are considered potential contributors to coronal heating. Despite the ubiquity of this wave phenomeno…
On the complex nature of coronal heating
C. A. Breu, D. I. Pontin, E. Priest +1
A large part of the hot corona consists of magnetically confined, bright plasma loops. These observed loops are in turn structured into bright strands. We investigate the relations…
Effect of Numerical Resolution on Synthetic Observables of Simulated Coronal Loops
Cosima Alexandra Breu, Ineke De Moortel, Hardi Peter +1
Increasingly realistic simulations of the corona are used to predict synthetic observables for instruments onboard both existing and upcoming heliophysics space missions. Synthetic…
MUSE observations of small-scale heating events
C. A. Breu, I. De Moortel, P. Testa
Constraining the processes that drive coronal heating from observations is a difficult task due to the complexity of the solar atmosphere. As upcoming missions such as MUSE will pr…
Non-thermal broadening of coronal lines in a 3D MHD loop model
C. A. Breu, H. Peter, S. K. Solanki +2
Observed spectral profiles of emission lines from the corona are found to have widths exceeding the thermal line width. To investigate the physical mechanism, we run a 3D MHD model…
How numerical treatments of the transition region modify energy flux into the solar corona
Thomas Howson, Cosima Breu
The large temperature gradients in the solar transition region present a significant challenge to large scale numerical modelling of the Sun's atmosphere. In response, a variety of…
Swirls in the Solar Corona
C. Breu, H. Peter, R. Cameron +1
Vortex flows have been found in the photosphere, chromosphere and low corona in observations and simulations. It has been suggested that vortices play an important role for channel…
A solar coronal loop in a box: Energy generation and heating
C. Breu, H. Peter, R. Cameron +4
Coronal loops are the basic building block of the upper solar atmosphere. Comprehending how these are energized, structured, and evolve is key to understanding stellar coronae. Her…
Maximum mass, moment of inertia and compactness of relativistic stars
Cosima Breu, Luciano Rezzolla
A number of recent works have highlighted that it is possible to express the properties of general-relativistic stellar equilibrium configurations in terms of functions that do not…
