Seismological demonstration of perpendicular density structuring in the solar corona [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The peculiarities of the propagating transverse waves observed in the solar corona with the CoronalMulti-channel Polarimeter (CoMP)indicate the existence of fine field structuring in the coronal density.

The propagation and damping of slow magnetoacoustic waves in the solar atmosphere [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The propagation and damping of slow magnetoacoustic waves in the solar atmosphere is investigated, with particular emphasis placed on waves with periodicities of five minutes. The basic model of a uniform temperature loop is extended by the addition of

The Heating of the Solar Corona [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The solar corona, the outer atmosphere of the Sun, is heated to millions of Kelvin. This is several orders of magnitude hotter than the photosphere, the optical surface of the Sun, below, and a mystery that has baffled scientists for centuries.

Development and application of a global magnetic field evolution model for the solar corona [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Magnetic fields are fundamental to the structure and dynamics of the Sun’s corona. Observations show them to be locally complex, with highly sheared and twisted fields visible in solar filaments/prominences.

Propagation and damping of MHD waves in the solar atmosphere [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Quasi-periodic disturbances have been observed in the outer solar atmosphere for many years. Although first interpreted as upflows (Schrijver et al.

Turbulence in the solar corona

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2007
The solar corona has been revealed in the past decade to be a highly dynamic nonequilibrium plasma environment. Both the loop-filled coronal base and the extended acceleration region of the solar wind appear to be strongly turbulent, but direct observational evidence for a cascade of fluctuation energy from large to small scales is lacking.

The Solar Corona [PDF]

open access: yesHighlights of Astronomy, 1980
AbstractRecent observations from space have shown that the solar corona is spatially a very structured medium and temporally a very dynamic one. The consequent changes in the current theoretical ideas about coronal physics are reviewed. The role of the magnetic fields in shaping and heating the coronal structures is especially underlined.

Long term changes in EUV and X-ray emissions from the solar corona and chromosphere as measured by the response of the Earth’s ionosphere during total solar eclipses from 1932 to 1999 [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2001
Measurements of the ionospheric E region during total solar eclipses in the period 1932–1999 have been used to investigate the fraction of Extreme Ultra Violet and soft X-ray radiation, 8, that is emitted from the limb corona and chromosphere.

Influence of projection effects on the observed differential rotation rate in the UV corona

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Research, 2013
Following previous investigations by Giordano and Mancuso [1] and Mancuso and Giordano [2,3] on the differential rotation of the solar corona as obtained through the analysis of the intensity time series of the O VI 1032 Å spectral line observed by the ...

Modeling the Formation and Evolution of Solar Wind Microstreams: From Coronal Plumes to Propagating Alfvénic Velocity Spikes

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We investigate the origin of mesoscale structures in the solar wind called microstreams, defined as enhancements in the solar wind speed and temperature that last several hours.
