Understanding the density structure of the solar corona is important for modeling both coronal heating and the solar wind. Direct measurements are difficult because of line-of-sight integration and possible unresolved structures. We present…
A survey of 28 stars using EUV spectra has been conducted to establish the structure of stellar coronae in active binary systems from the EMD, electron densities, and scale sizes. Observations obtained by the EUVE during 9 years of…
An observation of a large prominence on the solar limb took place on February 15, 2022, by the Extreme Ultraviolet Imager (EUI) on board Solar Orbiter. We aim to determine the range of physical parameters of this prominence, such as…
Two types of active region feature prominent at transition region temperatures are identified in Hinode/EIS data of AR 10938 taken on 2007 January 20. The footpoints of 1 MK TRACE loops are shown to emit strongly in emission lines formed at…
The contribution of plumes to the solar wind has been subject to hot debate in the past decades. The EUV Imaging Spectrometer (EIS) on board Hinode provides a unique means to deduce outflow velocities at coronal heights via direct Doppler…
Solar prominences are cool, dense stable structures routinely observed in the corona. Prominences are often ejected from the Sun via coronal mass ejections (CMEs). However, they are rarely detected in a cool, low-ionized state within CMEs…
Imaging solar coronal condensation forming prominences was difficult in the past, a situation recently changed by Hinode and SDO. We present the first example observed with SDO/AIA, in which material gradually cools through multiple EUV…
We present preliminary reconstructions of the EUV from 26 to 34\,nm from February 1997 to May 2005, covering most of solar cycle 23. The reconstruction is based on synthetic EUV spectra calculated with the spectral synthesis code Solar…
Magnetic tornadoes, characterized as impulsive Alfven waves initiated by photospheric vortices in intergranular lanes, are considered efficient energy channels to the corona. Despite their acknowledged importance for solar coronal heating,…
The diagnosis of new high-resolution spectropolarimetric observations of solar prominences made in the visible and near-infrared mainly, requires a radiative modelling taking into account for both multi-dimensional geometry and complex…
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…
Observations of the Mg II h and k lines in solar prominences with IRIS reveal a wide range of line shapes from simple non-reversed profiles to typical double-peaked reversed profiles with many other complex line shapes possible. The…
We present new collisional-radiative models (CRMs) for helium in the quiescent solar corona, and predict the emissivities of the He and He$^+$ lines to be observed by DKIST, Solar Orbiter, and Proba-3. We discuss in detail the rates we…
The Extreme Ultraviolet Variability Experiment (EVE) on the Solar Dynamics Observatory obtains extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) spectra of the full-disk Sun at a spectral resolution of ~1 A and cadence of 10 s. Such a spectral resolution would…
How the solar corona is heated to high temperatures remains an unsolved mystery in solar physics. In the present study we analyse observations of 50 whole active-region loops taken with the Extreme-ultraviolet Imaging Spectrometer (EIS) on…
The velocity pattern of a fan loop structure within a solar active region over the temperature range 0.15-1.5 MK is derived using data from the EUV Imaging Spectrometer (EIS) on board the Hinode satellite. The loop is aligned towards the…
Context. We diagnose the properties of the plume and interplume regions in a polar coronal hole and the role of waves in the acceleration of the solar wind. Aims. We attempt to detect whether Alfven waves are present in the polar coronal…
Coronal loops in active regions are the subjects of intensive investigation, but the important diffuse 'unresolved' emission in which they are embedded has received relatively little attention. Here we measure the densities and emission…
The "middle corona" is a critical transition between the highly disparate physical regimes of the lower and outer solar corona. Nonetheless, it remains poorly understood due to the difficulty of observing this faint region (1.5-3 solar…
We present an update to the in-flight radiometric calibration of the Hinode EUV Imaging Spectrometer (EIS), revising and extending our previous studies. We analyze full-spectral EIS observations of quiet Sun and active regions from 2007…
