Modeling of AR 12760 with GX Simulator and Evidence for the Extended Transition Region in Peripheral Active Region Loops
Therese A. Kucera, Gelu M. Nita, James A. Klimchuk +1
In order to understand solar atmospheric heating it is important to test heating models against spatially resolved data from solar active regions. Here we model a small active regi…
Three-dimensional mapping of coronal magnetic field and plasma parameters in a solar flare
Tatyana Kaltman, Sijie Yu, Gregory D. Fleishman +1
Diagnosing solar flare conditions is essential for understanding coronal energy release. Using combined microwave and X-ray data, we reconstruct three-dimensional maps of the magne…
Magneto-Thermal Coupling and Coronal Heating in Solar Active Regions Inferred from Microwave Observations
Alexey A. Kuznetsov, Gregory D. Fleishman, Gelu M. Nita +1
The solar corona is much hotter than the photosphere and chromosphere, but the physical mechanism responsible for heating the coronal plasma remains unidentified yet. The thermal m…
Steady-State Heating of Diffuse Coronal Plasma in a Solar Active Region
Gregory D. Fleishman, Alexey A. Kuznetsov, Gelu M. Nita
Solar corona is much hotter than lower layers of the solar atmosphere-photosphere and chromosphere. The coronal temperature is up to 1MK in quiet sun areas, while up to several MK…
