The effect of colour on the thermal performance of building integrated solar collectors [PDF]
The use of solar collectors with coloured absorbers for water heating is an area of particular interest when considering their integration with buildings.

The Heating of the Quiet Solar Chromosphere [PDF]
The quiet solar chromosphere shows three distinct regions. Ordered according to the strength of the emission from the low and middle chromosphere they are (1) the magnetic elements on the boundary of supergranulation cells, (2) the bright points in the cell interior, and (3) the truly quiet chromosphere, also in the cell interior. The magnetic elements

Observational study of chromospheric heating by acoustic waves [PDF]
Aims. Our aim is to investigate the role of acoustic and magneto-acoustic waves in heating the solar chromosphere. Observations in strong chromospheric lines are analyzed by comparing the deposited acoustic-energy flux with the total integrated radiative

HEATING OF THE SOLAR CHROMOSPHERE AND CORONA BY ALFVÉN WAVE TURBULENCE [PDF]
A three-dimensional MHD model for the propagation and dissipation of Alfven waves in a coronal loop is developed. The model includes the lower atmospheres at the two ends of the loop. The waves originate on small spatial scales (less than 100 km) inside the kilogauss flux elements in the photosphere.

ON THE SPATIAL SCALES OF WAVE HEATING IN THE SOLAR CHROMOSPHERE
Dissipation of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) wave energy has been proposed as a viable heating mechanism in the solar chromospheric plasma. Here, we use a simplified one-dimensional model of the chromosphere to theoretically investigate the physical processes and the spatial scales that are required for the efficient dissipation of Alfvén waves and slow ...

Heating of the solar chromosphere through current dissipation
Context.The solar chromosphere is heated to temperatures higher than predicted by radiative equilibrium. This excess heating is greater in active regions where the magnetic field is stronger.Aims.We aim to investigate the magnetic topology associated with an area of enhanced millimeter (mm) brightness temperatures in a solar active region mapped by the

Heating and dynamics of the quiet solar chromosphere [PDF]
AbstractThe quiet solar chromosphere in regions with negligible magnetic field is believed to be heated by acoustic waves. But their energy flux, measured in the upper photosphere with the Transition Region And Coronal Explorer (TRACE), has been found to be insufficient to account for the radiative emission from the chromosphere.

Fast Magnetic Wave Could Heat the Solar Low-beta Chromosphere [PDF]
Abstract Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves are candidates for heating the solar chromosphere, although it is still unclear which mode of the wave is dominant in heating. We perform two-dimensional radiative MHD simulation to investigate the propagation of MHD waves in the quiet region of the solar chromosphere.
