Evolution of active regions

L van Driel-Gesztelyi, LM Green - Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2015 - Springer
The evolution of active regions (AR) from their emergence through their long decay process
is of fundamental importance in solar physics. Since large-scale flux is generated by the …

On solving the coronal heating problem

JA Klimchuk - Solar Physics, 2006 - Springer
The question of what heats the solar corona remains one of the most important problems in
astrophysics. Finding a definitive solution involves a number of challenging steps, beginning …

X-ray astronomy of stellar coronae

M Güdel - The Astronomy and Astrophysics Review, 2004 - Springer
X-ray emission from stars in the cool half of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram is generally
attributed to the presence of a magnetic corona that contains plasma at temperatures …

The properties of the solar corona and its connection to the solar wind

SR Cranmer, AR Winebarger - Annual Review of Astronomy …, 2019 - annualreviews.org
The corona is a layer of hot plasma that surrounds the Sun, traces out its complex magnetic
field, and ultimately expands into interplanetary space as the supersonic solar wind …

Multispectral emission of the Sun during the first whole Sun month: Magnetohydrodynamic simulations

R Lionello, JA Linker, Z Mikić - The Astrophysical Journal, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
We demonstrate that a three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation of the
corona can model its global plasma density and temperature structure with sufficient …

A contemporary view of coronal heating

CE Parnell, I De Moortel - Philosophical Transactions of …, 2012 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Determining the heating mechanism (or mechanisms) that causes the outer atmosphere of
the Sun, and many other stars, to reach temperatures orders of magnitude higher than their …

The magnetic fields of classical T Tauri stars

CM Johns-Krull - The Astrophysical Journal, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
We report new magnetic field measurements for 14 classical T Tauri stars (CTTSs). We
combine these data with one previous field determination in order to compare our observed …

The relationship between X-ray radiance and magnetic flux

AA Pevtsov, GH Fisher, LW Acton… - The Astrophysical …, 2003 - iopscience.iop.org
We use soft X-ray and magnetic field observations of the Sun (quiet Sun, X-ray bright points,
active regions, and integrated solar disk) and active stars (dwarf and pre–main-sequence) to …

Magnetic inhibition of convection and the fundamental properties of low-mass stars. I. Stars with a radiative core

GA Feiden, B Chaboyer - The Astrophysical Journal, 2013 - iopscience.iop.org
Magnetic fields are hypothesized to inflate the radii of low-mass stars—defined as less
massive than 0.8 M☉—in detached eclipsing binaries (DEBs). We investigate this …

Driving major solar flares and eruptions: A review

CJ Schrijver - Advances in Space Research, 2009 - Elsevier
This review focuses on the processes that energize and trigger M-and X-class solar flares
and associated flux-rope destabilizations. Numerical modeling of specific solar regions is …
