Upflows in the Upper Solar Atmosphere
نویسندگان
چکیده
Spectroscopic observations at extreme- and far-ultraviolet wavelengths have revealed systematic upflows in the solar transition region corona. These are best seen network structures of quiet Sun coronal holes, boundaries active regions, dimming regions associated with mass ejections. They been intensively studied past two decades because they likely to be closely related formation wind heating upper atmosphere. We present an overview characteristics these upflows, introduce their possible mechanisms, discuss potential roles energy transport Although investigations greatly improved our understanding left us several outstanding questions unresolved issues that should addressed future. New from Solar Orbiter mission, Daniel K. Inouye Telescope, Parker Probe will provide critical information advance generation, propagation, energization upflows.

Solar control of the upper atmosphere of Triton.
If the upper atmosphere and ionosphere of Triton are controlled by precipitation of electrons from Neptune's magnetosphere as previously proposed, Triton could have the only ionosphere in the solar system not controlled by solar radiation. However, a new model of Triton's atmosphere, in which only solar radiation is present, predicts a large column of carbon atoms. With an assumed, but reason...
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 کاملGeneration of solar Hα impact polarization by fragmented evaporative upflows
In this paper a novel mechanism is proposed for the generation of Hα impact polarization observed during some solar flares. Rather than being generated by the primary particle beams transporting energy from the chromosphere to the corona, we suggest that following heating, the solar chromosphere evaporates in a fragmented manner, and that impact excitations in the regions of interaction of hot ...
متن کاملExplosive events in the solar atmosphere
Two examples of explosive events observed with SUMER in transition region spectral lines are reported here; one detected in C iv 1548 Å, in a region within the northern polar coronal hole, and the other in O vi 1032 Å, in an active region. The event measured in C iv lasted ∼ 3 min and extended approximately a region of 8 arc sec along the slit (N-S) and 8 arc sec in the E-W direction. Velocitie...
متن کاملMagnetic Coupling in the Quiet Solar Atmosphere
Three kinds of magnetic couplings in the quiet solar atmosphere are highlighted and discussed, all fundamentally connected to the Lorentz force. First the coupling of the convecting and overshooting fluid in the surface layers of the Sun with the magnetic field. Here, the plasma motion provides the dominant force, which shapes the magnetic field and drives the surface dynamo. Progress in the un...
