Passive solar-energy air-heating wall panels [PDF]
The development of products which enable passive solar-energy air-heating to be integrated into the heating strategies of public, commercial and industrial buildings is described. These buildings are, in general, only occupied significantly during the

Turbulence and Its Potential Impact on Solar Chromospheric and Coronal Heating
Low-frequency turbulence in the solar chromosphere remains poorly understood. We address (1) the sources of low-frequency turbulence that potentially heat the chromosphere, and (2) how turbulence is transported and dissipated throughout the chromosphere ...

Conservatories and domestic heating [PDF]
Passive solar gains to buildings in North European Climates can be significant and an investigation is made into the effect of orientation upon solar gains based upon known weather data.

High-resolution spectral observations of the lower solar atmosphere (chromosphere and transition region) during coronal heating events, in combination with predictions from models of impulsively heated loops, provide powerful diagnostics of the ...

Heating of the quiet solar chromosphere [PDF]
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. Our

ALFVÉN WAVE HEATING OF THE SOLAR CHROMOSPHERE: 1.5D MODELS [PDF]
ABSTRACT Physical processes that may lead to solar chromospheric heating are analyzed using high-resolution 1.5D non-ideal MHD modeling. We demonstrate that it is possible to heat the chromospheric plasma by direct resistive dissipation of high-frequency Alfvén waves through Pedersen resistivity.

Abstract The strong chromospheric absorption lines Ca ii H & K are tightly connected to stellar surface magnetic fields. Only for the Sun, spectral activity indices can be related to evolving magnetic features on the solar disk. The Solar Disk‐Integrated (SDI) telescope feeds the Potsdam Echelle Polarimetric and Spectroscopic Instrument (PEPSI) of the ...

The harsh environment where exoplanets live
Abstract The X‐ray and Extreme Ultraviolet (XUV) actvity of the Sun has determined important effects on the planets around it. In particular, high doses of X‐rays, flares, and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) combined with masses and sizes of the planets and the shielding action of the planetary magnetic fields have determined the diverse habitability of ...
