On the Size of Structures in the Solar Corona
Fine-scale structure in the corona appears not to be well resolved by current imaging instruments. Assuming this to be true offers a simple geometric explanation for several current puzzles in coronal physics, including the apparent uniform cross section of bright threadlike structures in the corona, the low EUV contrast ( long apparent scale height) between the top and bottom of active region ...
متن کاملTurbulence 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 کاملGlobal conditions in the solar corona from 2010 to 2017
Through reduction of a huge data set spanning 2010-2017, we compare mean global changes in temperature, emission measure (EM), and underlying photospheric magnetic field of the solar corona over most of the last activity cycle. The quiet coronal mean temperature rises from 1.4 to 1.8 MK, whereas EM increases by almost a factor of 50% from solar minimum to maximum. An increased high-temperature ...
متن کاملThe 1998 Mars Global Surveyor Solar Corona Experiment
The Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) spacecraft, launched on November 7, 1996, carries an experimental space-to-ground telecommunications link at 32 GHz (Ka-band) along with the primary 8.4-GHz (X-band) downlink used for operational MGS project activities. The signals are simultaneously transmitted from a 1.5-m-diameter parabolic antenna on MGS and received by 34-meter beamwaveguide (BWG) antennas lo...
متن کاملIon Cyclotron Damping in the Solar Corona and Solar Wind
The solar corona is the hot, ionized outer atmosphere of the Sun. Coronal plasma expands into interplanetary space as a supersonic bulk outflow known as the solar wind. This tenuous and unbounded medium is a unique laboratory for the study of kinetic theory in a nearly collisionless plasma, as well as magnetohydrodynamic waves, shocks, and jets. Particle velocity distributions in the solar wind...
