Spatial and Temporal Distribution of Nanoflare Heating During Active Region Evolution
Biswajit Mondal, James A Klimchuk, Amy R. Winebarger +2
Nanoflares are believed to be key contributors to heating solar non-flaring active regions, though their individual detection remains challenging. This study uses a data-driven fie…
Exploring the magnetic and thermal evolution of a coronal jet
Sushree S Nayak, Samrat Sen, Arpit Kumar Shrivastav +2
Coronal jets are the captivating eruptions which are often found in the solar atmosphere, and primarily formed due to magnetic reconnection. Despite their short-lived nature and lo…
A systematic study of inverting overlappograms: MaGIXS -- A case study
P. S. Athiray, Arthur Hochedez, Amy R Winebarger +1
Slitless (or wide field) imaging spectroscopy provides simultaneous imaging and spectral information from a wide field of view, which allows for rapid spectroscopic data collection…
Determining the nanoflare heating frequency of an X-ray Bright Point observed by MaGIXS
Biswajit Mondal, P. S. Athiray, Amy R. Winebarger +18
Nanoflares are thought to be one of the prime candidates that can heat the solar corona to its multi-million kelvin temperature. Individual nanoflares are difficult to detect with…
Can emission measure distributions derived from extreme-ultraviolet images accurately constrain high temperature plasma?
P. S. Athiray, Amy R. Winebarger
Measuring the relative amount of high-temperature, low-emission-measure plasma is considered to be a smoking gun observation to constrain the frequency of plasma heating in coronal…
Role of small-scale impulsive events in heating the X-ray bright points of the quiet Sun
Biswajit Mondal, James A Klimchuk, Santosh V. Vadawale +6
Small-scale impulsive events, known as nanoflares, are thought to be one of the prime candidates that can keep the solar corona hot at its multi-million Kelvin temperature. Individ…
The First Flight of the Marshall Grazing Incidence X-ray Spectrometer (MaGIXS)
Sabrina L. Savage, Amy R. Winebarger, Ken Kobayashi +34
The Marshall Grazing Incidence X-ray Spectrometer (MaGIXS) sounding rocket experiment launched on July 30, 2021 from the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico. MaGIXS is a unique…
On the faintest solar coronal hard X-rays observed with FOXSI
Juan Camilo Buitrago-Casas, Lindsay Glesener, Steven Christe +23
Solar nanoflares are small eruptive events releasing magnetic energy in the quiet corona. If nanoflares follow the same physics as their larger counterparts, they should emit hard…
FOXSI-2 Solar Microflares II: Hard X-ray Imaging Spectroscopy and Flare Energetics
Juliana T. Vievering, Lindsay Glesener, P. S. Athiray +7
We study the nature of energy release and transfer for two sub-A class solar microflares observed during the second flight of the Focusing Optics X-ray Solar Imager (FOXSI-2) sound…
FOXSI-2 Solar Microflares I : Multi-instrument Differential Emission Measure Analysis and Thermal Energies
P. S. Athiray, Juliana Vievering, Lindsay Glesener +8
In this paper we present the differential emission measures (DEMs) of two sub-A class microflares observed in hard X-rays (HXRs) by the FOXSI-2 sounding rocket experiment, on 2014…
Solar Active Region Heating Diagnostics from High Temperature Emission using the Marshall Grazing Incidence X-ray Spectrometer (MaGIXS)
P. S. Athiray, Amy R. Winebarger, Will T. Barnes +7
The relative amount of high temperature plasma has been found to be a useful diagnostic to determine the frequency of coronal heating on sub-resolution structures. When the loops a…
