High-frequency Decayless Waves with Significant Energy in Solar Orbiter/EUI Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
High-frequency wave phenomena present a great deal of interest as one of the possible candidates to contribute to the energy input required to heat the corona as a part of the alternating current heating theory.

Correlation analysis of solar flux absolute measurements at 161 and 245 MHz

open access: yesSolar-Terrestrial Physics, 2023
Solar emission in meter waves originates from upper layers of the solar corona. We present absolute measurements of solar flux from Irkutsk Incoherent Scatter Radar (161 MHz frequency) and Learmonth Observatory (245 MHz frequency). We perform correlation

The Temperature and Density Structure of the Solar Corona. I. Observations of the Quiet Sun with the EUV Imaging Spectrometer (EIS) on Hinode

open access: yes, 2009
Measurements of the temperature and density structure of the solar corona provide critical constraints on theories of coronal heating. Unfortunately, the complexity of the solar atmosphere, observational uncertainties, and the limitations of current ...

Soft X-ray coronal spectra at low activity levels observed by RESIK [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The quiet-Sun X-ray emission is important for deducing coronal heating mechanisms, but it has not been studied in detail since the Orbiting Solar Observatory (OSO) spacecraft era.

Time-dependent Dynamics of the Corona

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We present in this Letter the first global comparison between traditional line-tied steady-state magnetohydrodynamic models and a new, fully time-dependent thermodynamic magnetohydrodynamic simulation of the global corona. To approximate surface magnetic

Role of Small-scale Impulsive Events in Heating the X-Ray Bright Points of the Quiet Sun

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Small-scale impulsive events, known as nanoflares, are thought to be one of the prime candidates that can keep the solar corona hot at its multimillion-Kelvin temperature.

Coronal global EIT waves as tools for multiple diagnostics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Observations in EUV lines of the solar corona revealed large scale propagating waves generated by eruptive events able to travel across the solar disk for large distances. In the low corona, CMEs are known to generate, e.g. EIT waves which can be used to

Beyond small-scale transients: A closer look at the diffuse quiet solar corona

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2023
Aims. Within the quiet Sun corona imaged at 1 MK, much of the field of view consists of diffuse emission that appears to lack the spatial structuring that is so evident in coronal loops or bright points. Our aim is to determine if these diffuse regions are categorically different in terms of their intensity fluctuations and spatial configuration from ...

Multimodal Differential Emission Measure in the Solar Corona [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) telescope on board the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) provides coronal EUV imaging over a broader temperature sensitivity range than the previous generations of instruments (EUVI, EIT, and TRACE).

Modeling the Daily Variations of the Coronal X-ray Spectral Irradiance with Two Temperatures and Two Emission Measures

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The Miniature X-ray Solar Spectrometer (MinXSS-1) CubeSat observed solar X-rays between 0.5 and 10 keV. A two-temperature, two-emission-measure model is fit to each daily averaged spectrum.
