Near- and Mid-ultraviolet Observations of X-6.3 Flare on 2024 February 22 Recorded by the Solar Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope on board Aditya-L1

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Solar flares are regularly observed in extreme-ultraviolet soft X-rays (SXRs) and hard X-rays (HXRs). However, those in near- and mid-ultraviolet are sparse.

Dynamics of fine structure in the solar chromosphere

open access: yes, 2006
This thesis is concerned with the dynamics of fine structure of the solar chromosphere and transition region, in both quiet sun and active regions. It contains six chapters of observational studies.

Investigating magnetic fields in the solar chromosphere

open access: yes, 2020
Solar plage has been the topic of many studies since its initial description in the mid 19th century, but as of yet it has not been understood to the point where we can reproduce all aspects of these active regions in quasi-realistic numerical models. To

On the Intermittency of Hot Plasma Loops in the Solar Corona

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
A recent analysis has suggested that the heating of plasma loops in the solar corona depends not just on the Poynting flux but also on processes yet to be identified.

The Relationships among Solar Flare Impulsiveness, Energy Release, and Ribbon Development

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We develop the impulsiveness index, a new classification system for solar flares using the Solar Dynamics Observatory/Extreme Ultraviolet Experiment 304 Å Sun-as-a-star light curves.

The investigation of quasi-separatrix layers in solar magnetic fields

open access: yes, 2011
The structure of the magnetic field is often an important factor in many energetic processes in the solar corona. To determine the topology of the magnetic field features such as null points, separatrix surfaces, and separators must be found.

Investigating the Effects of Atmospheric Stratification on Coronal Active Region Field Modeling

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Understanding the evolution of the complex magnetic fields found in solar active regions is an active area of research. There exist many different models for such fields, which range in their complexity due to the number of physical effects included in ...

ALMA observations of transient heating in a solar active region

open access: yes, 2020
Aims. We aim to investigate the temperature enhancements and formation heights of solar active-region brightenings such as Ellerman bombs (EBs), ultraviolet bursts (UVBs), and flaring active-region fibrils (FAFs) using interferometric observations in the

A Data-constrained Analysis for Joule Heating as a Solar Active Region Atmosphere Heating Mechanism. I. Sunspot Umbral Light Bridge

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Understanding the mechanisms underlying the heating of the solar atmosphere is a fundamental problem in solar physics. The lower atmosphere of the Sun (i.e., photosphere and chromosphere) is composed of weakly ionized plasma.
