Electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) is a phenomenon that can provide strong and robust interfacing between optical signals and quantum coherence of electronic spins. In its archetypical form, mainly explored with atomic media, it…
The opening-up of the magnetic field during solar eruptive events is often accompanied by a dimming of the local coronal emission. From observations of filament eruptions recorded with the Extreme-Ultraviolet Imager on STEREO during…
The nature of CME-associated low corona propagating disturbances, 'EUV waves', has been controversial since their discovery by EIT on \textit{SOHO}. The low cadence, single viewpoint EUV images and the lack of simultaneous inner corona…
Network loops are a common feature in the quiet Sun. The physical processes sustaining their energy budget is still under discussion. We rely on a multi-instrumental (Solar Orbiter/EUI, Solar Orbiter/PHI, IRIS) observation of a six hours…

We observe electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in Rb vapor at various optical intensities, starting from below saturation to several times the saturation intensity. The observed Lorentzian width of the EIT signal is very small.…
This is the first attempt to model the kinematics of a CME launch and the resulting EUV dimming quantitatively with a self-consistent model. Our 4D-model assumes self-similar expansion of a spherical CME geometry that consists of a CME…
