Structures in the outer solar atmosphere
The structure and dynamics of the outer solar atmosphere are reviewed with emphasis on the role played by the magnetic field. Contemporary observations that focus on high resolution imaging over a range of temperatures, as well as UV, EUV and hard X-ray spectroscopy, demonstrate the presence of a vast range of temporal and spatial scales, mass motions, and particle energies present. By focussin...
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 کاملGranulation and magnetism in the solar atmosphere
The properties of the photosphere in magnetic and nonmagnetic regions, at two levels in the solar atmosphere, have been studied, using two virtually simultaneous time sequences of 109 mn duration of CCD images taken at the Vacuum Tower Telescope of the Sacramento Peak Observatory. The selected wavelengths correspond to the true continuum and to the wing of the MgIb1 line, where brightenings are...
متن کاملSpectroradiometry of Spatially-resolved Solar Plasma Structures
The investigation of spatially-resolved solar plasma features in terms of radiometric measurements requires concepts different from those useful for full-Sun observations. After a definition of the relevant physical quantities, formulae are derived for studies of optically-thick and optically-thin plasmas observed with both spectral and spatial resolution. Simple examples of their applications ...
متن کاملNonlinear Mhd Waves in the Solar Wind Plasma Structures
We investigate the interaction of magnetohydrody-namic waves with plasma density inhomogeneities. Our numerical study of the full MHD equations shows that: (A) Plasma density inhomogeneities are a source of non-linear generation of transverse com-pressive waves by a plane Alfvén wave, and substantially enhance (by about a factor of 2) the generation of the longitudinal compressive waves. (B) At...
