The role of diffusion in the transport of energetic electrons during solar flares
Nicolas H. Bian, A. Gordon Emslie, Eduard P. Kontar
The transport of the energy contained in suprathermal electrons in solar flares plays a key role in our understanding of many aspects of flare physics, from the spatial distributio…
Langmuir Wave Electric Fields Induced by Electron Beams in the Heliosphere
Hamish A. S. Reid, Eduard P. Kontar
Solar electron beams responsible for type III radio emission generate Langmuir waves as they propagate out from the Sun. The Langmuir waves are observed via in-situ electric field…
Polarisation of microwave emission from reconnecting twisted coronal loops
Mykola Gordovskyy, Philippa Browning, Eduard Kontar
Magnetic reconnection and particle acceleration due to the kink instability in twisted coronal loops can be a viable scenario for confined solar flares. Detailed investigation of t…
Observing the formation of flare-driven coronal rain
E. Scullion, L. Rouppe Van Der Voort, P. Antolin +4
Flare-driven coronal rain can manifest from rapidly cooled plasma condensations near coronal loop-tops in thermally unstable post-flare arcades. We detect 5 phases that characteris…
Anomalous Cooling of Coronal Loops with Turbulent Suppression of Thermal Conduction
Nicolas H. Bian, Jonathan M. Watters, Eduard P. Kontar +1
We investigate the impact of turbulent suppression of parallel heat conduction on the cooling of post-flare coronal loops. Depending on the value of the mean free path associ…
Global Energetics of Solar Flares: III. Non thermal Energies
Markus J. Aschwanden, Gordon Holman, Aidan O'Flannagain +3
This study entails the third part of a global flare energetics project, in which Ramaty High-Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager (RHESSI) data of 191 M and X-class flare events from…
