Commission 10: Solar Activity [PDF]

, 2007
Commission 10 aims at the study of various forms of solar activity, including networks, plages, pores, spots, fibrils, surges, jets, filaments/prominences, coronal loops, flares, coronal mass ejections (CMEs), solar cycle, microflares, nanoflares ...

Distribution of coronal heating in a solar active region [PDF]

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2008
Aims. We investigate the distribution of heating of coronal loops in a non-flaring solar active region, using a simple electrodynamic model: the random displacements of the loop footpoints, caused by photospheric plasma motions, generate electric potential differences between the footpoints and, as a result, electric currents flow along the loops ...

Short‐term performance responses of an intertidal fish to sedimentation and warming

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 109, Issue 2, Page 1005-1017, August 2026.
Abstract Climate change is altering coastal ecosystems by causing environmental fluctuations, such as increases in temperature and turbidity, which pose major implications for fish physiology and behaviour. Increases in temperature affect fish food intake, swimming capacity and oxygen delivery, while increases in turbidity can impair or enhance prey ...

Nanoscale space weathering features in mature lunar soil revealed by TEM and APT

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 8, Page 2048-2072, August 2026.
Abstract Space weathering significantly alters the optical, chemical, and structural properties of lunar regolith at micro‐ and nanoscales; yet detailed nanoscale variability within individual soils remains underexplored. Here we apply transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and atom probe tomography to four mineral grains (olivine, ilmenite, and two ...

Understanding the Variability of Helium Abundance in the Solar Corona Using Three-fluid Modeling and Ultraviolet Observations

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The variability of helium abundance in the solar corona and the solar wind is an important signature of solar activity, solar cycle, and solar wind sources, as well as coronal heating processes.

Unraveling the Fine‐Scale Tapestry of Solar Wind at 1AU

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract Solar wind is a complex network of distinct magnetic flux tubes, each contained and separated by a current sheet. In this study, more than 50,000 current sheets in the solar wind are identified and characterized for the first time, using multi‐point Cluster observations during solar minimum and maximum intervals.

Constraining Coronal Heating: Employing Bayesian Analysis Techniques to Improve the Determination of Solar Atmospheric Plasma Parameters [PDF]

, 2010
One way of revealing the nature of the coronal heating mechanism is by comparing simple theoretical one dimensional hydrostatic loop models with observations at the temperature and/or density structure along these features. The most well-known method for

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

, 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.

Magneto-thermal Coupling and Coronal Heating in Solar Active Regions Inferred from Microwave Observations

The Astrophysical Journal
The solar corona is much hotter than the photosphere and chromosphere, but the physical mechanism responsible for heating the coronal plasma remains unidentified. The thermal microwave emission, which is produced in a strong magnetic field above sunspots,

SYNTHETIC SOLAR CORONAL HEATING ON CURRENT SHEETS

The Astrophysical Journal, 2009
Synthetic heating of solar coronal loops combining Joule and wave-heating mechanisms on current sheets is proposed. The formation of singular current structures such as current sheets can be caused not only by magnetic reconnection and footpoint convection of coronal loops, but also Alfv?n resonance induced by shear flows.
