Revisiting the Role of Global Magnetic Variables in Coronal Heating of Solar Active Regions
David H. Brooks, Harry P. Warren, Johnathan R. Stauffer
Reconnection-based models of coronal heating predict that magnetic complexity---non-potential configurations, currents, shear---should enhance coronal emission independently of tot…
Pre-flare and active region plasma flows and structure seen by the short wavelength camera on SOLAR-C/EUVST
James McKevitt, Sarah Matthews, David H. Brooks +20
The mechanisms triggering solar flares and driving coronal heating occur across wide temperature ranges on small spatial scales and short timescales, making them difficult to obser…
Coronal Non-Thermal and Doppler Plasma Flows Driven by Photospheric Flux in 28 Active Regions
James McKevitt, Sarah Matthews, Deborah Baker +5
Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves and/or the braiding of magnetic field lines are largely thought to be responsible for heating the solar corona, both being mechanisms which are driv…
The Non-Eruptive Reconfiguration of a Quiescent Filament After a Nearby Active Region Emergence
James McKevitt, Louise Harra, Gherardo Valori +13
The unpredictability of solar filament eruptions presents major challenges for forecasting space weather, as such eruptions frequently drive coronal mass ejections (CMEs) that impa…
Evolution of solar and stellar coronal abundances due to magnetic activity
David H. Brooks, Deborah Baker, David M. Long. Paola Testa +1
We discuss the evolution of solar coronal element abundances over an active region lifetime. Magneto-convection drives the complexity of magnetic fields that emerge above the photo…
Thread Separation and Expansion Observed in Multi-Stranded Solar Coronal Loops
David H. Brooks, Harry P. Warren
The theoretical expectation that coronal loops should expand with height contrasts with observations that typically show constant cross-sections. We investigate the idea that this…
