We aim at studying the small-scale evolution at the boundaries of an equatorial coronal hole connected with a channel of open magnetic flux with the polar region and an `isolated' one in the extreme-ultraviolet spectral range. We intend to…
We track and investigate from white-light data taken with the Wide-field Instrument for Solar PRobe (WISPR) aboard Parker Solar Probe (PSP), localized density enhancements, reflecting small-scale magnetic structures belonging to a…
The slow solar wind is generally believed to result from the interaction of open and closed coronal magnetic flux at streamers and pseudostreamers. We use 3-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulations to determine the detailed structure and…
A simple model to explain the phase-dependence of the cyclotron absorption line observed in many X-Ray pulsars is presented. It includes several relativistic effects, namely gravitational redshift, gravitational light deflection, and - most…
Recent advances in observational performance and numerical simulations have revolutionised our understanding of the solar chromosphere. This concerns in particular the structure and dynamics on small spatial and temporal scales. As a…
We study the magnetic properties of small-scale transients in coronal hole. We found all brightening events are associated with bipolar regions and caused by magnetic flux emergence followed by cancellation with the pre-existing and newly…
A comprehensive understanding of the structure of Doppler motions in transition region including the center-to-limb variation and its relationship with the magnetic field structure is vital for the understanding of mass and energy transfer…
Estimates of velocities from time series of photospheric and/or chromospheric vector magnetograms can be used to determine fluxes of magnetic energy (the Poynting flux) and helicity across the magnetogram layer, and to provide…
We show that systematic differences between surface Doppler and magnetic element tracking measures of solar meridional flow can be explained by the effects of surface turbulent magnetic diffusion. Feature-tracking speeds are lower than…
A joint campaign of various space-borne and ground-based observatories, comprising the Japanese Hinode mission (HOP~338, 20\,--\,30~September 2017), the GREGOR solar telescope, and the \textit{Vacuum Tower Telescope} (VTT), investigated…
The last solar minimum is characterized by several peculiar aspects and by the presence of a complex magnetic topology with two different kinds of coronal streamers: pseudo-streamers and bipolar streamers. Pseudo-streamers or unipolar…
Energy stored in the magnetic field in the solar atmosphere above active regions is a key driver of all solar activity (e.g., solar flares and coronal mass ejections), some of which can affect life on Earth. Radio observations provide a…
Coronal hole spatial-temporal evolution is studied and comparison made with that of the solar global magnetic field in cycles 21-23 (1976-2012). The latitude-longitude distribution dynamics of coronal holes and the regularities in the…
We examine the hypothesis that plasma associated with "Type II" spicules is heated to coronal temperatures, and that the upward moving hot plasma constitutes a significant mass supply to the solar corona. 1D hydrodynamical models including…
Coronal loops reveal crucial information about the nature of both coronal magnetic fields and coronal heating. The shape of the corresponding flux tube cross section and how it varies with position are especially important properties. They…
A comparison between a Coronal Hole (CH) and the adjacent Quiet-Sun (QS) has been performed using spectroscopic diagnostics of Hinode/ the EUV Imaging Spectrometer (EIS). Coronal funnels play an important role in the formation and…
Context. Emission lines formed in the transition region and corona show dominantly redshifts and blueshifts, respectively. Aims. We investigate the Doppler shifts in a 3D radiation MHD model of the quiet Sun and compare these to observed…
We investigate the evolution of coronal loop emission in the context of the coronal magnetic field topology. New modeling techniques allow us to investigate the magnetic field structure and energy release in active regions. Using these…
The origin of the slow solar wind is still an open issue. It has been suggested that upflows at the edge of active regions (AR) can contribute to the slow solar wind. Here, we compared the upflow region and the AR core and studied how the…
The interaction of open and closed field lines at coronal hole boundaries is widely accepted to be due to interchange magnetic reconnection. To date, it is unclear how the boundaries vary on short timescales and at what velocity this…
