A slow coronal mass ejection with rising X-ray source [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
An eruptive event, which occurred on 16th April 2002, is discussed. Using images from the Transition Region and Coronal Explorer ( TRACE) at 195 angstrom, we observe a lifting flux rope which gives rise to a slow coronal mass ejection ( CME).

Solar Stereoscopy and Tomography

open access: yesLiving Reviews in Solar Physics, 2011
We review stereoscopic and tomographic methods used in the solar corona, including ground-based and space-based measurements, using solar rotation or multiple spacecraft vantage points, in particular from the STEREO mission during 2007--2010 ...

Detection of Kink Oscillations in Solar Coronal Loops by a Convolutional Neural Network–Long Short-term Memory Neural Network

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
A hybrid machine learning model, which combines a shallow convolutional neural network and a long short-term memory (CNN-LSTM) network, has been developed to automate the detection of kink oscillations in coronal plasma loops within large volumes of high-

Dual-Species Plasmas Illustrate MHD Flows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Plasma loops created in the laboratory strongly resemble structures observed in the solar corona. For example, both solar coronal loops and experimental loops exhibit remarkably uniform axial cross sections. A magnetohydrodynamic theory that was proposed

Gravitational steady states of solar coronal loops

open access: yesPhysics of Plasmas, 2017
Coronal loops on the surface of the sun appear to consist of curved, plasma-confining magnetic flux tubes or “ropes,” anchored at both ends in the photosphere. Toroidal loops carrying current are inherently unstable to expansion in the major radius due to toroidal-curvature-induced imbalances in the magnetic and plasma pressures.

Magnetic Topology and Loop Statistics in Observed Coronal Holes Using Potential Field Modeling

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Potential field source surface (PFSS) models are widely used to study the solar corona and form the basis for solar wind forecasting, yet they often fail to reproduce observed properties of coronal holes.

Coronal Loop Expansion Properties Explained Using Separators

open access: yes, 2009
One puzzling observed property of coronal loops is that they are of roughly constant thickness along their length. Various studies have found no consistent pattern of width variation along the length of loops observed by TRACE and SOHO.

Modeling of Condensations in Coronal Loops Produced by Impulsive Heating with Variable Frequencies and Locations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present the results of models of impulsively heated coronal loops using the 1D hydrodynamic Adaptively Refined Godunov Solver code. The impulsive heating events (which we refer to as nanoflares ) are modeled by discrete pulses of energy along the loop.

VLA-Max '91 tests of high energy flare physics [PDF]

open access: yes
The potential for the Very Large Array (VLA) contributions during the coming maximum in solar activity is illustrated by unpublished observations of solar flares on 28 May, 8 June, 24 June, and 30 September 1988.

The stability of solar coronal loops

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1979
We have examined the stability of the ''quasi-static'' models of coronal loops. We find that all models in which the heat flux at the base of the loop is assumed to vanish are unstable to the growth of thermal perturbations. The growth rates and the profiles of the unstable modes indicate that the instability involves primarily the low-temperature ...
