Coronal origins of the solar wind - sources of steady streams and transient flows caused by solar magnetic eruptions
The magnetic field of the Sun and the plasma properties of its atmosphere, such as temperature distribution, density stratification, photospheric convection and waves in the corona, determine the origin, energetics and evolution of the solar wind. The solar wind comes in three main kinds, as steady fast streams, variable slow flows and transient slow and fast coronal mass ejections. The three t...

متن کاملNonlinear wave heating of solar coronal loops
Theheating ofmagnetically closed structures (loops) in the solar corona by the resonant absorption of incident waves is studied by means of numerical simulations in the framework of nonlinear resistive magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). It is shown that the dynamics in the resonant layer is indeed very nonlinear for typical coronal parameters. The effect of the nonlinearity on the efficiency of the re...
متن کاملThe Heating of Solar Coronal Loops by Alfvén Wave Turbulence
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. Using a three-dimensional magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) model for an active-region loop, we investigate how the waves from neighboring flux tubes interact in t...
متن کاملPlasma Sloshing in Pulse-heated Solar and Stellar Coronal Loops
INAF-Osservatorio Astronomico di Palermo, Piazza del Parlamento 1, 90134 Palermo, Italy Abstract There is evidence that coronal heating is highly intermittent, and flares are the high energy extreme. The properties of the heat pulses are difficult to constrain. Here hydrodynamic loop modeling shows that several large amplitude oscillations (∼ 20% in density) are triggered in flare light curves ...
