Three-dimensional Magnetic Structures of Ellerman Bombs revealed by SUNRISE III/SCIP
Yusuke Kawabata, Yukio Katsukawa, Masahito Kubo +37
Ellerman bombs (EBs) are widely recognized as photospheric and chromospheric signatures of magnetic reconnection. However, the three-dimensional (3D) magnetic topology has remained…
Multi-height Identification of Sausage and Fluting Eigenmodes in a Solar Pore
Shahin Jafarzadeh, David B. Jess, Marco Stangalini +34
Magnetic pores are compact, strongly magnetised waveguides in the lower solar atmosphere and therefore provide favourable conditions for identifying magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) wave…
The Sunrise Chromospheric Infrared Spectro-Polarimeter SCIP: an instrument for SUNRISE III
Y. Katsukawa, J. C. del Toro Iniesta, S. K. Solanki +54
The Sunrise balloon-borne solar observatory is equipped with a one-meter aperture optical telescope, offering a unique platform for uninterrupted seeing-free observations across ul…
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…
Supergranulation and Poleward Migration of the Magnetic Field at High Latitudes of the Sun
L. P. Chitta, D. Calchetti, J. Hirzberger +26
Magnetoconvection at the solar surface governs the dynamics in the upper solar atmosphere and sustains the heliosphere. Properties of this fundamental process are poorly described…
Sunrise III: Overview of Observatory and Instruments
Andreas Korpi-Lagg, Achim Gandorfer, Sami K. Solanki +117
In July 2024, Sunrise completed its third successful science flight. The Sunrise III observatory had been upgraded significantly after the two previous successful flights in 2009 a…
