Flare Ribbons Observed with G-band and FeI 6302A Filters of the Solar Optical Telescope on Board Hinode

H. Isobe, M. Kubo, T. Minoshima +11

The Solar Optical Telescope (SOT) on board Hinode satellite observed an X3.4 class flare on 2006 December 13. Typical two-ribbon structure was observed, not only in the chromospher…

A Tale Of Two Spicules: The Impact of Spicules on the Magnetic Chromosphere

Bart De Pontieu, Scott W. McIntosh, Viggo H. Hansteen +11

We use high-resolution observations of the Sun in Ca II H 3968 A from the Solar Optical Telescope on Hinode to show that there are at least two types of spicules that dominate the…
