Formation of an observed eruptive flux rope above the torus instability threshold through tether-cutting magnetic reconnection

Avijeet Prasad, Sanjay Kumar, Alphonse C. Sterling +4

Erupting magnetic flux ropes (MFRs) play a crucial role in producing solar flares. However, the formation of erupting MFRs in complex coronal magnetic configurations and their subs…

Prospective Implications of EUV Coronal Plumes for Magnetic-network Genesis of Coronal Heating, Coronal-hole Solar Wind, and Solar-wind Magnetic-field Switchbacks

Ronald L. Moore, Sanjiv K. Tiwari, Navdeep K. Panesar +1

We propose that coronal heating in EUV coronal plumes is weaker, not stronger, than in adjacent non-plume coronal magnetic funnels. This expectation stems from (i) the observation…

Future High-Resolution and High-Cadence Observations for Unraveling Small-Scale Explosive Solar Features

Alphonse C. Sterling, Ronald L. Moore, Navdeep K. Panesar +3

Solar coronal jets are frequently occurring collimated ejections of solar plasma, originating from magnetically mixed polarity locations on the Sun of size scale comparable to that…

Dominance of Bursty over Steady Heating of the 4--8 MK Coronal Plasma in a Solar Active Region: Quantification using Maps of Minimum, Maximum, and Average Brightness

Sanjiv K. Tiwari, Lucy A. Wilkerson, Navdeep K. Panesar +2

A challenge in characterizing active region (AR) coronal heating is in separating transient (bursty) loop heating from the diffuse background (steady) heating. We present a method…

Inconspicuous Solar Polar Coronal X-ray Jets as the Source of Conspicuous Hinode/EUV Imaging Spectrometer (EIS) Doppler Outflows

Alphonse C. Sterling, Conrad Schwanitz, Louise K. Harra +3

We examine in greater detail five events previously identified as being sources of strong transient coronal outflows in a solar polar region in Hinode/EUV Imaging Spectrometer (EIS…

Genesis and Coronal-jet-generating Eruption of a Solar Minifilament Captured by IRIS Slit-raster Spectra

Navdeep K. Panesar, Sanjiv K. Tiwari, Ronald L. Moore +2

We present the first IRIS Mg II slit-raster spectra that fully capture the genesis and coronal-jet-generating eruption of a central-disk solar minifilament. The minifilament arose…
