Turbulence in the Solar Corona
The solar corona has been revealed in the past decade to be a highly dynamic nonequilibrium plasma environment. Both the loop-filled coronal base and the extended acceleration region of the solar wind appear to be strongly turbulent, but direct observational evidence for a cascade of fluctuation energy from large to small scales is lacking. In this paper I will review the observations of waveli...
متن کاملThe Temperature of the Solar Corona
This paper is a historical survey of the temperature determinations in the solar corona. After the description of the early results, it focuses on coronal holes; it discusses the discrepancies of the past and comments on the nearly general
متن کاملThe heating of the solar corona
The heating of the solar corona has been a fundamental astrophysical issue for over sixty years. Over the last decade in particular, space-based solar observatories (Yohkoh, SOHOandTRACE) have revealed the complex and often subtlemagnetic-field and plasma interactions throughout the solar atmosphere in unprecedented detail. It is now established that any energy release mechanism is magnetic in ...
متن کاملHeating mechanisms of the solar corona
The solar corona is a tenuous outer atmosphere of the Sun. Its million-degree temperature was discovered spectroscopically in the 1940s, but its origin has been debated since then without complete convergence. Currently there are two classes of models; the wave theory and the microflare/nanoflare theory. Both models have merits and disadvantages, but the essential issues are nearly pinned down....
متن کاملRadiation scattering in the solar corona
This paper discusses the scattering in the solar corona of the radiation emitted by the solar disk. We obtain expressions for the emissivity which permit to deduce the spectral characteristics of the scattered radiation. With these expressions, assuming a Maxwellian distribution for the velocities of the scattering ions and a simple spectral shape of the exciting radiation, we produce approxima...
