Filaments play a crucial role in providing the necessary environmental conditions for star formation, actively participating in the process. To facilitate the identification and analysis of filaments, we introduce DPConCFil (Directional and…
A giant, quiet-Sun filament was observed with the high-resolution Echelle spectrograph at the Vacuum Tower Telescope at Observatorio del Teide on 2011 November 15. A mosaic of spectra (10 maps of 100" X 182") was recorded simultaneously in…
The data of ground-based telescopes of Global Oscillation Network Group (GONG) obtained in the H-alpha line provide an opportunity to study the long-period oscillations of chromospheric filaments (quiescent prominence). For the first time,…
Observatories and satellites around the globe produce tremendous amounts of imaging data to study many different astrophysical phenomena. The serendipitous observations of Solar System objects are a fortunate by-product which have often…
Filament identification became a key step to tackling fundamental problems in various fields of Astronomy. Nevertheless, existing filament identification algorithms are critically user-dependent and require individual parametrization. In…
Filament is a cool, dense structure suspended in the solar corona. The eruption of a filament is often associated with coronal mass ejection (CME), which has an adverse effect on space weather. Hence, the study of filament has attracted…
Precisely localising solar Active Regions (AR) from multi-spectral images is a challenging but important task in understanding solar activity and its influence on space weather. A main challenge comes from each modality capturing a…
