Coronal loops: observations and modeling of confined plasma

F Reale - Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2014 - Springer
Coronal loops are the building blocks of the X-ray bright solar corona. They owe their
brightness to the dense confined plasma, and this review focuses on loops mostly as …

Physics of solar prominences: II—magnetic structure and dynamics

Observing the fine structure of loops through high-resolution spectroscopic observations of coronal rain with the CRISP instrument at the Swedish Solar Telescope

P Antolin, LR van Der Voort - The Astrophysical Journal, 2012 - iopscience.iop.org
Observed in cool chromospheric lines, such as Hα or Ca ii H, coronal rain corresponds to
cool and dense plasma falling from coronal heights. Considered as a peculiar sporadic …

Solar science with the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array—a new view of our Sun

S Wedemeyer, T Bastian, R Brajša, H Hudson… - Space Science …, 2016 - Springer
Abstract The Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) is a new powerful tool for
observing the Sun at high spatial, temporal, and spectral resolution. These capabilities can …

Spatial and Temporal Analysis of Quiescent Coronal Rain over an Active Region

S Şahin, P Antolin, C Froment… - The Astrophysical …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
The solar corona produces coronal rain, hundreds of times colder and denser material than
the surroundings. Coronal rain is known to be deeply linked to coronal heating, but its origin …

Coronal rain in randomly heated arcades

X Li, R Keppens, Y Zhou - The Astrophysical Journal, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
Adopting the MPI-AMRVAC code, we present a 2.5-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic
simulation, which includes thermal conduction and radiative cooling, to investigate the …

The multi-thermal and multi-stranded nature of coronal rain

P Antolin, G Vissers, TMD Pereira… - The Astrophysical …, 2015 - iopscience.iop.org
We analyze coordinated observations of coronal rain in loops, spanning chromospheric,
transition region (TR), and coronal temperatures with sub-arcsecond spatial resolution …

Formation and evolution of a multi-threaded solar prominence

M Luna, JT Karpen, CR DeVore - The Astrophysical Journal, 2012 - iopscience.iop.org
We investigate the process of formation and subsequent evolution of prominence plasma in
a filament channel and its overlying arcade. We construct a three-dimensional time …
