Context. The radiative losses in the solar chromosphere vary from 4~kW~m$^{-2}$ in the quiet Sun, to 20~kW~m$^{-2}$ in active regions. The mechanisms that transport non-thermal energy to and deposit it in the chromosphere are still not…

The origin of the slow solar wind is still an open issue. One possibility that has been suggested is that upflows at the edge of an active region can contribute to the slow solar wind. We aim to explain how the plasma upflows are generated,…

The composition of plasma in the solar corona is characterised by the First Ionisation Potential (FIP) bias, and is thought to be the result of a ponderomotive force acting in the chromosphere to separate ionised from neutral plasma.…
