Statistical Evidence for the Existence of Alfvénic Turbulence in Solar Coronal Loops
Jiajia Liu, Scott W. McIntosh, Ineke De Moortel +2
Recent observations have demonstrated that waves which are capable of carrying large amounts of energy are ubiquitous throughout the solar corona. However, the question of how this…
On Magnetic Activity Band Overlap, Interaction, and the Formation of Complex Solar Active Regions
Scott W. McIntosh, Robert J. Leamon
Recent work has revealed an phenomenological picture of the how the 11-year sunspot cycle of Sun arises. The production and destruction of sunspots is a consequence of the la…
Rotating Solar Jets in Simulations of Flux Emergence with Thermal Conduction
Fang Fang, Yuhong Fan, Scott W. McIntosh
We study the formation of coronal jets through numerical simulation of the emergence of a twisted magnetic flux rope into a pre-existing open magnetic field. Reconnection inside th…
Deciphering Solar Magnetic Activity I: On The Relationship Between The Sunspot Cycle And The Evolution Of Small Magnetic Features
Scott W. McIntosh, Xin Wang, Robert J. Leamon +6
Sunspots are a canonical marker of the Sun's internal magnetic field which flips polarity every ~22-years. The principal variation of sunspots, an ~11-year variation in number, mod…
Identifying Potential Markers of the Sun's Giant Convective Scale
Scott W. McIntosh, Xin Wang, Robert J. Leamon +1
Line-of-sight magnetograms from the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) of the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) are analyzed using a diagnostic known as the "Magnetic Range of I…
The Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS)
B. De Pontieu, A. M. Title, J. Lemen +85
The Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) small explorer spacecraft provides simultaneous spectra and images of the photosphere, chromosphere, transition region, and corona…
