Signatures of Magnetic Flux Ropes in the Low Solar Atmosphere Observed in High Resolution

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2019
Magnetic flux ropes (MFRs) are important physical features closely related to solar eruptive activities with potential space weather consequences. Studying MFRs in the low solar atmosphere can shed light on their origin and subsequent magnetic structural

Chromospheric Heating from Local Magnetic Growth and Ambipolar Diffusion under Nonequilibrium Conditions

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
The heating of the chromosphere in internetwork regions remains one of the foremost open questions in solar physics. In the present study, we tackle this old problem by using a very-high-spatial-resolution simulation of quiet-Sun conditions performed ...

Chromospheric Anemone Jets as Evidence of Ubiquitous Reconnection

, 2008
The heating of the solar chromosphere and corona is a long-standing puzzle in solar physics. Hinode observations show the ubiquitous presence of chromospheric anemone jets outside sunspots in active regions.

Differential rotation: the chromosphere to the quiet chromosphere

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023
ABSTRACT Synoptic maps of Ca II K-normalized intensity at ±40° latitude belt from Carrington rotations 827 (1915 August 10) to 1764 (1985 July 7) are utilized to investigate the long-term variation of the quiet chromospheric differential rotation within solar activity cycles through removing some large values of Ca II-normalized ...

A New Method for Probabilistic Spatiotemporal Forecasts of Solar Soft X‐Ray “S‐Class” (>X10) Superflares

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Solar superflares of S‐class (>X10 in soft X‐rays) pose extreme space weather hazards, yet their prediction remains a fundamental challenge owing to their rapid and transient natures and the limitations of conventional event‐based forecasts. We introduce for the first time, a probabilistic spatiotemporal framework designed to identify extended

Space Weather Impact of Three Solar Flares Observed by the POEMAS Telescope at 45 and 90 GHz

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Solar flares are often associated with coronal mass ejections (CMEs) that, when directed toward Earth, can disrupt the magnetosphere and impact space weather. In this study, we investigate three long‐duration solar flares observed in 2012 by the POlarization Emission of Millimeter Activity at the Sun (POEMAS) telescopes at 45 and 90 GHz.

Atmospheric Heating and Wind Acceleration: Results for Cool Evolved Stars based on Proposed Processes

, 2014
A chromosphere is a universal attribute of stars of spectral type later than ~F5. Evolved (K and M) giants and supergiants (including the zeta Aurigae binaries) show extended and highly turbulent chromospheres, which develop into slow massive winds.

Solar Flare Activity, 1937–2024: Introducing the New Hemispheric Solar Flare Index (hSFI) in the Context of 2024's Major Solar Storm Events

Space Weather, Volume 23, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract A new daily composite of the solar flare index (SFI) and the hemispherically‐resolved versions (hSFI) are presented for 1937 to 2024. The data set confirms that the northern hemisphere (NH) dominated solar flare activity during Solar Cycles 17 to 21, but that the southern hemisphere has dominated from Solar Cycle 22 to present.

Solar Radio Wide‐Band Spectroscopy and Imaging Facilities of the Chinese Meridian Project Phase II

Space Weather, Volume 23, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Solar eruptions, including flares and coronal mass ejections, are the most energetic phenomena in the solar system. These explosive events accelerate high‐energy particles and generate electromagnetic radiation from radio to gamma‐ray wavelengths, producing heliospheric disturbances and acting as primary drivers of space weather hazards.
