To the problem of solar coronal heating

Astronomy Letters, 2007
We consider the adequacy of various solar coronal heating models. We show that the correlation between the intensity of the coronal Fe XIV 530.5 nm green line and the calculated magnetic field strength in the solar corona can be a useful tool for this purpose.

Unveiling the mystery of solar-coronal heating

Physics Today, 2023
Miniature flares recently discovered by probes that have approached the Sun’s surface are helping physicists understand how the Sun’s corona reaches temperatures of millions of kelvin.

Coronal heating and solar activity: The role of waves

Advances in Space Research, 1993
Abstract Coronal heating and solar activity are manifestations of the complex interaction between the magnetic field and the photospheric plasma motions. As a result of such an interaction magnetohydrodynamic waves are generated: their dissipation may provide the basic physical mechanism to heat the corona.

Solar Coronal Loops and Coronal Heating Models

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2005
Ever since it was realized, some sixty five years ago, that the solar corona is three orders of magnitude hotter than the underlying photosphere, scientists have puzzled over the reason for these extreme conditions. A number of plausible ideas have been put forward, including the dissipation of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves and the dissipation of ...

Nonlinear aspects of the solar coronal heating

Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion, 2006
The heating of the solar coronal plasma has remained one of the most important problems in solar physics. An explanation of the electron and ion heating rests on the identification of the energy source and appropriate physical mechanisms via which the energy can be channelled to the plasma particles.

Solar coronal heating by plasma waves

Journal of Plasma Physics, 2009
AbstractThe solar coronal plasma is maintained at temperatures of millions of degrees, much hotter than the photosphere, which is at a temperature of just 6000 K. In this paper, the plasma particle heating based on the kinetic theory of wave–particle interactions involving kinetic Alfvén waves and lower-hybrid drift modes is presented.

Mechanisms of solar coronal heating

Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion, 1991
A major problem in astrophysical plasma physics is to explain how the outer atmosphere, the corona, of the Sun is heated to temperatures of millions of degrees Kelvin. It is accepted that the heating mechanism is magnetic, with the energy source being turbulent motions below the solar surface.
