An MHD avalanche model of multi-threaded coronal loop

A. W. Hood, P. J. Cargill, P. K. Browning +1

For the first time, we demonstrate how an MHD avalanche might occur in a multi-threaded coronal loop. Considering 23 non-potential magnetic threads within a loop, we use 3D MHD sim…

Recent advances in coronal heating

Ineke De Moortel, Philippa Browning

The solar corona, the tenuous outer atmosphere of the Sun, is orders of magnitude hotter than the solar surface. This 'coronal heating problem' requires the identification of a hea…

Plasma motions and non-thermal line broadening in flaring twisted coronal loops

Mykola Gordovskyy, Eduard Kontar, Philippa Browning

Observation of coronal EUV spectral lines sensitive to different temperatures offers an opportunity to evaluate the thermal structure and flows in flaring atmospheres. This can be…

Two-fluid and magnetohydrodynamic modelling of magnetic reconnection in the MAST spherical tokamak and the solar corona

P. K. Browning, S. Cardnell, M. Evans +4

Twisted magnetic flux ropes are ubiquitous in space and laboratory plasmas, and the merging of such flux ropes through magnetic reconnection is an important mechanism for restructu…

Solar and Heliospheric Physics with the Square Kilometre Array

Valery M. Nakariakov, Mario M. Bisi, Philippa K. Browning +6

The fields of solar radiophysics and solar system radio physics, or radio heliophysics, will benefit immensely from an instrument with the capabilities projected for SKA. Potential…

Coronal heating in multiple magnetic threads

K. V. Tam, A. W. Hood, P. K. Browning +1

Context. Heating the solar corona to several million degrees requires the conversion of magnetic energy into thermal energy. In this paper, we investigate whether an unstable magne…
