Coronal Heating Rate in the Slow Solar Wind
Daniele Telloni, Marco Romoli, Marco Velli +59
This Letter reports the first observational estimate of the heating rate in the slowly expanding solar corona. The analysis exploits the simultaneous remote and local observations…
IBIS-A: The IBIS data Archive. High resolution observations of the solar photosphere and chromosphere with contextual data
Ilaria Ermolli, Fabrizio Giorgi, Mariarita Murabito +10
The IBIS data Archive (IBIS-A) stores data acquired with the Interferometric BIdimensional Spectropolarimeter (IBIS), which was operated at the Dunn Solar Telescope of the US Natio…
On the evolution of a sub-C class flare: a showcase for the capabilities of the revamped Catania Solar Telescope
Paolo Romano, Salvo L. Guglielmino, Pierfrancesco Costa +9
Solar flares are occasionally responsible for severe Space Weather events, which can affect space-borne and ground-based infrastructures, endangering anthropic technological activi…
Exploring the Solar Wind from its Source on the Corona into the Inner Heliosphere during the First Solar Orbiter - Parker Solar Probe Quadrature
Daniele Telloni, Vincenzo Andretta, Ester Antonucci +68
This Letter addresses the first Solar Orbiter (SO) -- Parker Solar Probe (PSP) quadrature, occurring on January 18, 2021, to investigate the evolution of solar wind from the extend…
Comparative case study of two methods to assess the eruptive potential of selected active regions
Francesca Zuccarello, Ilaria Ermolli, Marianna B. Korsos +4
Solar eruptive events, like flares and coronal mass ejections, are characterized by the rapid release of energy that can give rise to emission of radiation across the entire electr…
Effects of the chromospheric Lyα line profile shape on the determination of the solar wind HI outflow velocity using the Doppler dimming technique
G. E. Capuano, S. Dolei, D. Spadaro +15
The determination of solar wind outflow velocity is fundamental in order to probe the mechanisms of wind acceleration in the corona. We aim to study, via the Doppler dimming techni…
Cosmic-ray flux predictions and observations for and with Metis on board Solar Orbiter
C. Grimani, V. Andretta, P. Chioetto +41
The Metis coronagraph is one of the remote sensing instruments hosted on board the ESA/NASA Solar Orbiter mission. Metis is devoted to carry out the first simultaneous imaging of t…
Differences in periodic magnetic helicity injection behaviour between flaring and non-flaring Active Regions: Case Study
M. B. Korsos, P. Romano, H. Morgan +3
The evolution of magnetic helicity has a close relationship with solar eruptions and is of interest as a predictive diagnostic. In this case study, we analyse the evolution of the…
Properties of the Umbral Filament Observed in Active Region NOAA 12529
S. L. Guglielmino, P. Romano, B. Ruiz Cobo +2
Recent observations of the solar photosphere revealed the presence of elongated filamentary bright structures inside sunspot umbrae, called umbral filaments (UFs). These features d…
Solar flare forecasting using morphological properties of sunspot groups
M. Falco, P. Costa, P. Romano
We describe a new tool developed for solar flare forecasting on the base of some sunspot group properties. Assuming that the flare frequency follows the Poisson statistics, this to…
Historical solar Ca II K observations at the Rome and Catania observatories
Theodosios Chatzistergos, Ilaria Ermolli, Mariachiara Falco +5
Here we present the little explored Ca II K archives from the Rome and the Catania observatories and analyse the digitised images from these archives to derive plage areas.
Recent insights on the penumbra formation process
M. Murabito, P. Romano, F. Zuccarello +1
Using high-resolution spectropolarimetric data acquired by \textit{IBIS}, as well as \textit{SDO}/HMI observations, we studied the penumbra formation in AR NOAA 11490 and in a samp…
Satellite observations of reconnection between emerging and pre-existing small-scale magnetic fields
S. L. Guglielmino, F. Zuccarello, P. R. Young +2
We report multi-wavelength ultraviolet observations taken with the IRIS satellite, concerning the emergence phase in the upper chromosphere and transition region of an emerging flu…
Height dependence of the penumbral fine-scale structure in the inner solar atmosphere
Mariarita Murabito, I. Ermolli, F. Giorgi +6
We studied the physical parameters of the penumbra in a large and fully-developed sunspot, one of the largest over the last two solar cycles, by using full-Stokes measurements take…
