Propagating disturbances are often observed in active region fan-like coronal loops. They were thought to be due to slow mode MHD waves based on some of the observed properties. But the recent studies involving spectroscopy indicate that…
Slow magnetoacoustic waves are routinely observed in astrophysical plasma systems such as the solar corona. As a slow wave propagates through a plasma, it modifies the equilibrium quantities of density, temperature, and magnetic field. In…

Waves and shocks traveling through the solar chromospheric plasma are influenced by its partial ionization and weak collisional coupling, and may become susceptible to multi-fluid effects, similar to interstellar shock waves. In this study,…

Recently, a number of peculiar flares have been reported, which demonstrate significant non-thermal particle signatures with a low, if any, thermal emission, that implies close association of the observed emission with the primary energy…
Fast sausage modes (FSMs) in flare loops have long been invoked to account for rapid quasi-periodic pulsations (QPPs) with periods of order seconds in flare lightcurves. However, most theories of FSMs in solar coronal cylinders assume a…

We analyzed AIA/SDO high-cadence images in all bands, HMI/SDO data, soft X-ray images from SXI/GOES-15, and Halpha images from the GONG network. We detected umbral brightenings that were visible in all AIA bands as well as in Halpha.…
