Structures in the outer solar atmosphere
The structure and dynamics of the outer solar atmosphere are reviewed with emphasis on the role played by the magnetic field. Contemporary observations that focus on high resolution imaging over a range of temperatures, as well as UV, EUV and hard X-ray spectroscopy, demonstrate the presence of a vast range of temporal and spatial scales, mass motions, and particle energies present. By focussin...
متن کاملModels for magnetic heating of the solar atmosphere
Sustaining the hot solar corona requires an energy flux of up to about 10erg cm−2s−1 whose source must be the photospheric motions below. However, the precise way this energy is transferred and damped still remains an open question. Here a review of recent advances in theoretical models for coronal heating, in the light of the fundamental observational results of the last decade, will be
متن کاملTemperature diagnostics of the solar atmosphere using SunPy
The solar atmosphere is a hot (~1MK), magnetised plasma of great interest to physicists. There have been many previous studies of the temperature of the Sun’s atmosphere ([Plowman2012], [Wit2012], [Hannah2012], [Aschwanden2013], etc.). Almost all of these studies use the SolarSoft software package written in the commercial Interactive Data Language (IDL), which has been the standard language fo...
متن کاملThe Solar Atmosphere
Looking at the solar photosphere, we see the top of the convection zone in the form of granulation: Hot gas rising from the solar interior as part of the energy transport process reaches a position where the opacity is no longer sufficient to prevent the escape of radiation. The gas expands, radiates, and cools and in so doing loses its buoyancy and descends. These motions, ultimately driven by...
متن کاملSUMER Observations Confirm the Dynamic Nature of the Quiet Solar Outer Atmosphere: The Inter-network Chromosphere
On 12 March 1996, during the commissioning phase of the SOHO mission, we obtained observations of the quiet Sun with the SUMER instrument. The observations were sequences of 15-20 second exposures of ultraviolet emission line profiles and of the neighboring continua. These data contain signatures of the dynamics of the solar chromosphere that are uniquely useful because of wavelength coverage, ...
