Simulations (e.g. Zhou et al., Phys. Rev. B 79, 115201 (2009)) show nonlocal effects of the ballistic/diffusive crossover. The local temperature has nonlinear spatial variation not contained in the local Fourier law…
Solar coronal loops represent the variety of fast, intermediate, and slow normal mode oscillations. In this study, the transverse oscillations of the loops with a few-minutes period and also with damping caused by the resonant absorption…
The temperature of the solar atmosphere increases from thousands to millions of degrees moving from the lower layer (chromosphere) to the outermost one (corona), while the density drops accordingly. The mechanism behind this phenomenon,…
The expansion of coronal loops in the transition region may considerably influence the diagnostics of the plasma emission measure. The cross sectional area of the loops is expected to depend on the temperature and pressure, and might be…
Laser produced high-energy-density plasmas may contain strong magnetic fields that affect the energy transport, which can be nonlocal. Models which describe the magnetized nonlocal transport are formally complicated and based on many…
Thermal conduction is an important energy transfer and damping mechanism in astrophysical flows. Fourier's law - the heat flux is proportional to the negative temperature gradient, leading to temperature diffusion - is a well-known…
We present a detailed analysis of a reflecting intensity perturbation in a large coronal loop that appeared as sloshing oscillation and lasted for at least one and a half periods. The perturbation is initiated by a microflare at one…

Coronal loops act as resonant cavities for low frequency fluctuations that are transmitted from the deeper layers of the solar atmosphere and are amplified in the corona, triggering nonlinear interactions. However trapping is not perfect,…
