Solving the Coronal Heating Problem using X-ray Microcalorimeters
Steven Christe, Simon Bandler, Edward DeLuca +7
Even in the absence of resolved flares, the corona is heated to several million degrees. However, despite its importance for the structure, dynamics, and evolution of the solar atm…
Evidence of Non-Thermal Particles in Coronal Loops Heated Impulsively by Nanoflares
Paola Testa, Bart De Pontieu, Joel Allred +21
The physical processes causing energy exchange between the Sun's hot corona and its cool lower atmosphere remain poorly understood. The chromosphere and transition region (TR) form…
Prevalence of Small-scale Jets from the Networks of the Solar Transition Region and Chromosphere
H. Tian, E. E. DeLuca, S. R. Cranmer +24
As the interface between the Sun's photosphere and corona, the chromosphere and transition region play a key role in the formation and acceleration of the solar wind. Observations…
Nonlinear Force-Free Field Modeling of the Solar Magnetic Carpet and Comparison with SDO/HMI and Sunrise/IMaX Observations
L. P. Chitta, R. Kariyappa, A. A. van Ballegooijen +2
In the quiet solar photosphere, the mixed polarity fields form a magnetic carpet, which continuously evolves due to dynamical interaction between the convective motions and magneti…
Observations of Subarcsecond Bright Dots in the Transition Region above Sunspots with the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph
H. Tian, L. Kleint, H. Peter +5
Observations with the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) have revealed numerous sub-arcsecond bright dots in the transition region above sunspots. These bright dots are s…
