The role and contribution of magnetic fields, characterized via their magnetic flux, to the statistical structuring of the solar atmosphere [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 The anomalous heating of the solar upper atmosphere is one of the eight key problems in modern astronomy. Moreover, the stratification of the solar atmosphere is an outstanding key-problem in solar physics.

Chromospheric Jets and Their Properties [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2022 In this study we review solar chromospheric jets and characteristics of them. The chromosphere and transition region are the interface between the solar photosphere and the corona, which plays a key role in the formation and acceleration of the solar ...

Chromosphere Activity Relation with Solar Dynamo Magnetic Activity Cycle [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2022 In this article, we analyzed the abnormal thickness of the chromosphere above the coronal holes (CH) at the poles of the Sun for 13 years (2010-2022), on the 15th of every month, by using AIA/SDO telescope data.

The quiet sun at mm wavelengths as seen by ALMA
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022 Solar observations at sub-mm, mm and cm wavelengths offer a straightforward diagnostic of physical conditions in the solar atmosphere because they yield measurement of brightness temperature which, for optically thick features, equals intrinsic ...

CAII lines in a quiet region on the Sun I. Dynamic processes in the solar atmosphere
Solar-Terrestrial Physics, 2023 We have studied oscillation processes in the quiet Sun outside a coronal hole at different levels of the solar chromosphere. The study was based on spectroscopic observations of ionized calcium lines (K, H, and 849.8 nm) obtained by the Sayan Solar ...

Why “Solar Tsunamis” Rarely Leave Their Imprints in the Chromosphere
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 Solar coronal waves frequently appear as bright disturbances that propagate globally from the eruption center in the solar atmosphere, just like the tsunamis in the ocean on Earth.

Alfvén Wave Connection between the Chromosphere and the Corona of the Sun: An Analytical Study
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Alfvén waves are closely relevant to the three outstanding problems in the solar corona: coronal heating, solar wind acceleration, and the fractionization of low first ionization potential (FIP) elements.

NANOFLARE ACTIVITY IN THE SOLAR CHROMOSPHERE [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2014 We use ground-based images of high spatial and temporal resolution to search for evidence of nanoflare activity in the solar chromosphere. Through close examination of more than 10^9 pixels in the immediate vicinity of an active region, we show that the distributions of observed intensity fluctuations have subtle asymmetries.

An ALMA Observation of Time Variations in Chromospheric Temperature of a Solar Plage Region
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022 Nanoflares and the shock formation of magnetohydrodynamic waves in the solar chromosphere have been considered as key physical mechanisms of the heating of the chromosphere and corona.
