Solar Coronal Lines in the Visible and Infrared: A Rough Guide [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2018
Abstract We review the coronal visible and infrared lines, collecting previous observations and comparing, whenever available, observed radiances to those predicted by various models: the quiet Sun (QS), a moderately active Sun, and an active region as observed near the limb, around 1.1 R ⊙.

On the solar coronal lines 1175-1965 A

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 1979
Sixteen new coronal lines are observed in ATM UV spectra. Identifications, wavelengths, and intensities are presented. Two additional lines observed previously are proposed as transitions within the 3p(3)3d configuration of Fe XI.

Research progress in coronal magnetic field measurements

open access: yes地球与行星物理论评, 2022
Different solar atmospheric layers are connected by the magnetic field of the Sun, which is the primary source for various types of solar activity. The magnetic activity of the Sun has a significant impact on the solar-terrestrial environment and human ...

Estimating Ion Temperatures at the Polar Coronal Hole Boundary

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The temperatures of the heavy ions ( T _i ) in the solar corona provide critical information about the heating mechanism of the million-degree corona.

Identification of Solar Coronal Emission Lines [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1964
THE coronal emission lines are produced by highly ionized atoms undergoing forbidden transitions from metastable levels1. In an attempt to identify further lines we have examined the level separation 3P2—3P1 in the excited four-electron configuration 1s2 2s 2p. Fig. 1 shows the level structure near the ground-state.

ON THE NATURE OF THE SPECTRAL LINE BROADENING IN SOLAR CORONAL DIMMINGS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2011
We analyze the profiles of iron emission lines observed in solar coronal dimmings associated with coronal mass ejections, using the EUV Imaging Spectrometer on board Hinode. We quantify line profile distortions with empirical coefficients (asymmetry and peakedness) that compare the fitted Gaussian to the data. We find that the apparent line broadenings

Are Nonthermal Velocities in Active Region Coronal Loops Anisotropic?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We have measured line widths in active region coronal loops in order to determine whether the nonthermal broadening is anisotropic with respect to the magnetic field direction. These nonthermal velocities are caused by unresolved fluid motions.

Coronal spectral diagnostics: The coronal solar magnetism observatory (COSMO)

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
The Need: Understanding and predicting the major phenomena taking place in the solar corona, such as flares and Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs), the heating and evolution of the solar atmosphere, and the acceleration of the solar wind, are fundamental ...

CAII lines in a quiet region on the Sun I. Dynamic processes in the solar atmosphere

open access: yesSolar-Terrestrial Physics, 2023
We have studied oscillation processes in the quiet Sun outside a coronal hole at different levels of the solar chromosphere. The study was based on spectroscopic observations of ionized calcium lines (K, H, and 849.8 nm) obtained by the Sayan Solar ...
