OSCILLATORY RESPONSE OF THE SOLAR CHROMOSPHERE TO A STRONG DOWNFLOW EVENT ABOVE A SUNSPOT [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We report three-minute oscillations in the solar chromosphere driven by a strong downflow event in a sunspot. We used the Fast Imaging Solar Spectrograph of the 1.6 m New Solar Telescope and the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS).

Robust Statistical Techniques for Operational Maintenance of the 10.7 cm Solar Radio Flux

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 23, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract The F10.7 solar radio flux is a critical quantity for operational space weather nowcasting and forecasting, where it is routinely used as a driver for coupled atmospheric models to estimate a variety of important quantities such as the neutral atmospheric density.

Quasi‐Periodic Pulsations in Ionospheric TEC Synchronized With Solar Flare EUV Emission

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract The extreme ultraviolet (EUV) and X‐ray radiation emitted during solar flares has been shown to significantly increase the electron density of the Earth's ionosphere. During flares, quasi‐periodic pulsations in X‐ray flux originating in the corona have previously been linked to subsequent pulsations in the Earth's ionospheric D‐region. Similar

Measurement of Turbulence Injection Scale Down to the Chromosphere

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The solar atmosphere displays a sharp temperature gradient, starting from spicules in the chromosphere at 2 × 10 ^4 K, outward into the corona exceeding ${10}^{6}$ K.

FORCED FIELD EXTRAPOLATION OF THE MAGNETIC STRUCTURE OF THE Hα FIBRILS IN THE SOLAR CHROMOSPHERE [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present a careful assessment of forced field extrapolation using the Solar Dynamics Observatory/Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager magnetogram. We use several metrics to check the convergence property.

Multi‐Source Forecast of Solar Cycle Flare Activity Using the Novel Informer‐Based Models

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 23, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract Solar flares, the significant indicators of solar activity, have an impact on Earth's satellites and communication systems. Accurate prediction of solar flare events is crucial for mitigating these effects. In this work, we use multiple data sources, including Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites soft X‐ray flare flux and the ...

First Global Machine Learning Model to Predict the Rate of TEC Index (ROTI) Response to X‐Class Solar Flares

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 23, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract Solar flares are bursts of electromagnetic radiation originating in the Sun's atmosphere. Solar flares cause a rapid increase in ionization in the ionosphere, resulting in radio signal interference. This paper aims to predict the ionospheric response to the solar flare of various characteristics in all latitudes around the dayside ionosphere ...

Structure of the solar chromosphere [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2004
The chromosphere is an intriguing part of the Sun that has stubbornly resisted all attempts at a comprehensive description. Thus, observations carried out in different wavelength bands reveal very different, seemingly incompatible properties. Not surprisingly, a debate is raging between supporters of the classical picture of the chromosphere as a ...

OSCILLATION OF NEWLY FORMED LOOPS AFTER MAGNETIC RECONNECTION IN THE SOLAR CHROMOSPHERE [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
With the high spatial and temporal resolution Hα images from the New Vacuum Solar Telescope, we focus on two groups of loops with an X-shaped configuration in the dynamic chromosphere.

First Observations of a Geomagnetic Superstorm With a Sub‐L1 Monitor

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 23, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract Forecasting the geomagnetic effects of solar coronal mass ejections (CMEs) is currently an unsolved problem. CMEs, responsible for the largest values of the north‐south component of the interplanetary magnetic field, are the key driver of intense and extreme geomagnetic activity.
