SOLAR MAGNETIZED “TORNADOES:” RELATION TO FILAMENTS [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal Letters, 2012
Solar magnetized "tornadoes", a phenomenon discovered in the solar atmosphere, appear as tornado-like structures in the corona but root in the photosphere.

Two Solar Tornadoes Observed with the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The barbs or legs of some prominences show an apparent motion of rotation, which are often termed solar tornadoes. It is under debate whether the apparent motion is a real rotating motion, or caused by oscillations or counter-streaming flows.

Are giant tornadoes the legs of solar prominences? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Observations in the 171 AA channel of the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly of the space-borne Solar Dynamics Observatory show tornadoes-like features in the atmosphere of the Sun.

Climatology, storm morphologies, and environments of tornadoes in the British Isles: 1980–2012 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A climatology is developed for tornadoes during 1980–2012 in the British Isles, defined in this article as England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland, Channel Islands, and the Isle of Man.

Northern Tornadoes Project 2018/19 Report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Three years ago, we set our sights on finding at least a few undocumented tornado tracks in the remote forests of northern Ontario. We have covered greater distances and nurtured bigger ambitions since then.

Structure of prominence legs: Plasma and magnetic field [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We investigate the properties of a `solar tornado' observed on 15 July 2014, and aim to link the behaviour of the plasma to the internal magnetic field structure of the associated prominence.

Are tornado-like magnetic structures able to support solar prominence plasma? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Recent high-resolution and high-cadence observations have surprisingly suggested that prominence barbs exhibit apparent rotating motions suggestive of a tornado-like structure. Additional evidence has been provided by Doppler measurements.

Magnetic field in atypical prominence structures: Bubble, tornado and eruption [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Spectropolarimetric observations of prominences have been obtained with the THEMIS telescope during four years of coordinated campaigns. Our aim is now to understand the conditions of the cool plasma and magnetism in `atypical' prominences, namely when ...

Hα Doppler shifts in a tornado in the solar corona [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Context. High resolution movies in 193 Å from the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on the Solar Dynamic Observatory (SDO) show apparent rotation in the leg of a prominence observed during a coordinated campaign. Such structures are commonly referred to
