Stellar Flares and Coronal Structure
Coronal structure and coronal heating are intimately related in magnetically active stars. Coronal structure is commonly inferred from radio interferometry and from eclipse and rotational modulation studies. We discuss to what extent flares may be responsible for coronal structure and global observable properties in magnetically active stars.
متن کاملChromospheric magnetic field and density structure measurements using hard X-rays in a flaring coronal loop
Aims. A novel method of using hard X-rays as a diagnostic for chromospheric density and magnetic structures is developed to infer sub-arcsecond vertical variation of magnetic flux tube size and neutral gas density. Methods. Using Reuven Ramaty High Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager (RHESSI) X-ray data and the newly developed X-ray visibilities forward fitting technique we find the FWHM and cent...
متن کاملAnalyzing the E ects of Planets and Brown Dwarfs on Stellar Chromospheric and Coronal Activity
Many recently discovered extra-solar planets and brown dwarfs have masses comparable to or larger than Jupiter and are within a distance of 0.5 AU of their host stars. Consequently, signiicant interactions between these objects and the chromosphere, corona and wind of their host stars are expected. These include tidal eeects (where enhanced ows and turbulence in the tidal bulge leads to increas...
متن کاملStellar coronal magnetic fields and star-planet interaction
Context. Evidence of magnetic interaction between late-type stars and close-in giant planets is provided by the observations of stellar hot spots rotating synchronously with the planets and showing an enhancement of chromospheric and X-ray fluxes. Possible photospheric signatures of such an interaction have also been reported. Aims. We investigate star-planet interaction in the framework of a m...
متن کاملRecent Advances in Chromospheric and Coronal Polarization Diagnostics
I review some recent advances in methods to diagnose polarized radiation with which we may hope to explore the magnetism of the solar chromosphere and corona. These methods are based on the remarkable signatures that the radiatively induced quantum coherences produce in the emergent spectral line polarization and on the joint action of the Hanle and Zeeman effects. Some applications to spicules...
