2D MHD modelling of compressible and heated coronal loops obtained via nonlinear separation of variables and compared to TRACE and SoHO observations
G. J. D. Petrie, C. Gontikakis, H. Dara +2
An analytical MHD model of coronal loops with compressible flows and including heating is compared to observational data. The model is constructed via a systematic nonlinear separa…
