Vortex Flows in the Solar Chromosphere -- I. Automatic detection method
Yoshiaki Kato, Sven Wedemeyer
Solar "magnetic tornadoes" are produced by rotating magnetic field structures that extend from the upper convection zone and the photosphere to the corona of the Sun. Recent studie…
Observing the formation of flare-driven coronal rain
E. Scullion, L. Rouppe Van Der Voort, P. Antolin +4
Flare-driven coronal rain can manifest from rapidly cooled plasma condensations near coronal loop-tops in thermally unstable post-flare arcades. We detect 5 phases that characteris…
Chromospheric and Coronal Wave Generation in a Magnetic Flux Sheath
Yoshiaki Kato, Osker Steiner, Viggo Hansteen +3
Using radiation magnetohydrodynamic simulations of the solar atmospheric layers from the upper convection zone to the lower corona, we investigate the self-consistent excitation of…
On The Evolution of Magnetic White Dwarfs
P. -E. Tremblay, G. Fontaine, B. Freytag +5
We present the first radiation magnetohydrodynamics simulations of the atmosphere of white dwarf stars. We demonstrate that convective energy transfer is seriously impeded by magne…
Unresolved fine-scale structure in solar coronal loop-tops
Eamon Scullion, Luc Rouppe van der Voort, Sven Wedemeyer +1
New and advanced space-based observing facilities continue to lower the resolution limit and detect solar coronal loops in greater detail. We continue to discover even finer sub-st…
The detection of upwardly propagating waves channelling energy from the chromosphere to the low corona
N. Freij, E. M. Scullion, C. J. Nelson +3
There have been ubiquitous observations of wave-like motions in the solar atmosphere for decades. Recent improvements to space- and ground-based observatories have allowed the focu…
On the plasma flow inside magnetic tornadoes on the Sun
Sven Wedemeyer, Oskar Steiner
High-resolution observations with the Swedish 1-m Solar Telescope (SST) and the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) reveal rotating magnetic field structures that extend from the sola…
Are giant tornadoes the legs of solar prominences?
Sven Wedemeyer, Eamon Scullion, Luc Rouppe van der Voort +2
Observations in the 171 AA channel of the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly of the space-borne Solar Dynamics Observatory show tornadoes-like features in the atmosphere of the Sun. Thes…
Magnetic tornadoes and chromospheric swirls -- Definition and classification
Sven Wedemeyer, Eamon Scullion, Oskar Steiner +2
Chromospheric swirls are the observational signatures of rotating magnetic field structures in the solar atmosphere, also known as magnetic tornadoes. Swirls appear as dark rotatin…
