EUV FLICKERING OF SOLAR CORONAL LOOPS: A NEW DIAGNOSTIC OF CORONAL HEATING [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2016
ABSTRACT A previous work of ours found the best agreement between EUV light curves observed in an active region core (with evidence of super-hot plasma) and those predicted from a model with a random combination of many pulse-heated strands with a power-law energy distribution.

Solar Coronal Heating Fueled by Random Bursts of Fine-scale Magnetic Reconnection in Turbulent Plasma Regions

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Coronal heating is a longstanding issue in solar physics as well as plasma physics in general. In recent years, significant resolution improvements of satellite observations have contributed to a deeper understanding of small-scale physics, e.g ...

The Heating of Solar Coronal Loops by Alfvén Wave Turbulence [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2017
Abstract In this paper we further develop a model for the heating of coronal loops by Alfvén wave turbulence (AWT). The Alfvén waves are assumed to be launched from a collection of kilogauss flux tubes in the photosphere at the two ends of the loop.

The role of turbulence in coronal heating and solar wind expansion [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2015
Plasma in the Sun's hot corona expands into the heliosphere as a supersonic and highly magnetized solar wind. This paper provides an overview of our current understanding of how the corona is heated and how the solar wind is accelerated. Recent models of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence have progressed to the point of successfully predicting many ...

Solar coronal heating by relaxation events [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2003
A coronal heating model is proposed which predicts heating by a series of discrete events of various energies, analogous to the observed range of events from large scale flares through various transient brightening phenomena down to the often discussed "nanoflares".

MHD turbulence and heating of the open field-line solar corona [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This paper discusses the possibility that heating of the solar corona in open field-line regions emanating from coronal holes is due to a nonlinear cascade, driven by low-frequency or quasi-static magnetohydrodynamic fluctuations.

3D reconstruction of coronal loops by the principal component analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Knowing the three dimensional structure of plasma filaments in the uppermost part of the solar atmosphere, known as coronal loops, and especially their length, is an important parameter in the wave-based diagnostics of this part of the Sun.
