Magnetic structure of coronal dark halos
J. D. Nölke, S. K. Solanki, J. Hirzberger +5
At low coronal temperatures around or below 1 MK distinct areas in the surroundings of active regions (AR) show emission at a level significantly below the emission coming from the…
Small-scale impulsive EUV emission enhancements along network loops
A. Dolliou, H. Peter, S. Mandal +4
Network loops are a common feature in the quiet Sun. The physical processes sustaining their energy budget is still under discussion. We rely on a multi-instrumental (Solar Orbiter…
A stray light analysis for SO/PHI-HRT and an updated comparison of the inferred magnetic field with SDO/HMI
Jonas Sinjan, Tino L. Riethmüller, Achim Gandorfer +6
Context. The High Resolution Telescope of the Polarimetric and Helioseismic Imager on Solar Orbiter (SO/PHI-HRT) operates in an extreme observational environment, observing the Sun…
Solar photospheric velocities measured in space: a comparison between SO/PHI-HRT and SDO/HMI
D. Calchetti, K. Albert, F. J. Bailén +15
The Polarimetric and Helioseismic Imager (SO/PHI) onboard Solar Orbiter is a spectropolarimeter scanning the Fe I line at 617.3 nm, providing data of the solar photosphere. The sam…
A magnetic avalanche as the central engine powering a solar flare
L. P. Chitta, D. I. Pontin, E. R. Priest +17
Solar flares are the most powerful, magnetically driven, explosions in the heliosphere. The nature of magnetic energy release in the solar corona that heats the plasma and accelera…
The first out-of-ecliptic observations of the polar magnetic field of the Sun
D. Calchetti, S. K. Solanki, J. Hirzberger +25
Direct remote-sensing observations of the solar poles have been hindered by the restricted view obtained from the ecliptic plane. For the first time ever, Solar Orbiter with its re…
