Quasi-periodic Fast-mode Magnetosonic Wave Trains Within Coronal Waveguides Associated with Flares and CMEs

Wei Liu, Leon Ofman, Brittany Broder +2

Quasi-periodic, fast-mode, propagating wave trains (QFPs) are a new observational phenomenon recently discovered in the solar corona by the Solar Dynamics Observatory with extreme…

Evidence of thermal conduction suppression in hot coronal loops: Supplementary results

Tongjiang Wang, Leon Ofman, Xudong Sun +2

Slow magnetoacoustic waves were first detected in hot (6 MK) flare loops by the SOHO/SUMER spectrometer as Doppler shift oscillations in Fe XIX and Fe XXI lines. Recently, such…

Stability of rotating magnetized jets in the solar atmosphere. I. Kelvin-Helmholtz instability

T. V. Zaqarashvili, I. Zhelyazkov, L. Ofman

Observations show various jets in the solar atmosphere with significant rotational motions, which may undergo instabilities leading to heat ambient plasma. We study the Kelvin-Helm…

Nonlinear MHD waves in a Prominence Foot

Leon Ofman, Kalman Knizhnik, Therese Kucera +1

We study nonlinear waves in a prominence foot using 2.5D MHD model motivated by recent high-resolution observations with Hinode/SOT in Ca~II emission of a prominence on October 10,…

Three dimensional MHD Modeling of Vertical Kink Oscillations in an Active Region Plasma Curtain

Leon Ofman, Marzia Parisi, Abhishek K. Srivastava

Observations on 2011 August 9 of an X6.9-class flare in active region (AR) 11263 by the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on-board the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), were follo…

Spectroscopic Diagnosis of Propagating disturbances in coronal loops: Waves or flows?

Tongjiang Wang, Leon Ofman, Joseph M. Davila

The analysis of multiwavelength properties of propagating disturbances (PDs) using Hinode/EIS observations is presented. Quasi-periodic PDs were mostly interpreted as slow magnetoa…
