Brightenings observed in the solar extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) images are generally interpreted as signatures of micro- or nanoflares occurring at the transition region or coronal temperatures. Recent observations with the Extreme Ultraviolet…

Observations of small-scale brightenings in the low solar atmosphere can provide valuable constraints on possible heating/heat-transport mechanisms. We present a method for the detection and analysis of brightenings and demonstrate its…
