Observations of the upper solar chromosphere with SUMER

open access: yes, 2003
The structure and dynamics of the solar chromosphere are still matters of debate. The chromospheric network reflecting the supergranulation of the outer convection zone of the Sun is a prominent feature of the lower solar atmosphere that extends into the

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

open access: yesJournal 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

open access: yesJournal 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.

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

open access: yesSpace 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.

Heating of the quiet solar chromosphere [PDF]

open access: yesSolar Physics, 1994
We have analyzed a large number of Caii H line profiles at the sites of the bright points in the interior of the network using a 35-min-long time sequence of spectra obtained at the Vacuum Tower Telescope (VTT) of the Sacramento Peak Observatory on a quiet regon of the solar disc and studied the dynamical processes associated with these structures.

The emergence of magnetic flux through a partially ionised solar atmosphere [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We present results from 2.5D numerical simulations of the emergence of magnetic flux from the upper convection zone through the photosphere and chromosphere into the corona. Certain regions of the solar atmosphere are at sufficiently low temperatures to be

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

open access: yesSpace 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.

Three-dimensional numerical experiments on granulation-generated, two-fluid waves and flows in a solar magnetic carpet

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. These studies were carried out in the context of solar-chromosphere heating and solar-wind generation. Aims. We aim to explore granulation-generated, two-fluid waves and flows in the solar atmosphere permeated by a solar magnetic carpet. Methods.

Dominant Trends in Jupiter's H3+ ${\mathbf{H}}_{\mathbf{3}}^{\mathbf{+}}$ Northern Aurora: II. Magnetospheric Mapping

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Jupiter's auroral regions have previously been defined by broad‐scale auroral structures, but these are typically obscured by the wide array of temporal variability observed at timescales between minutes and days, making it difficult to understand the underlying magnetospheric biases driving these brightness differences.
