We study the upward propagation of a localized velocity pulse that is initially launched below the transition region within the solar atmosphere. The pulse quickly steepens into a shock, which may lead to the formation of spicules. We solve…
Popular scientific summary -- The atmosphere of the Sun is envisioned as composed of inherently complex, non-homogeneous, and dynamic layers. A detailed understanding of the physical processes involved in these layers is still lacking. For…
A comprehensive understanding of the structure of Doppler motions in transition region including the center-to-limb variation and its relationship with the magnetic field structure is vital for the understanding of mass and energy transfer…
Context. High-resolution observations of the solar photosphere reveal the presence of fine structures, in particular the so-called magnetic bright points (MBPs), which are small-scale features associated with strong magnetic field regions…

Coronal bright points (BPs) are small-scale luminous features seen in the solar corona. Quasi-periodic brightenings are frequently observed in the BPs and are generally linked with underneath magnetic flux changes. We study the dynamics of…
We analyze ground-based chromospheric data acquired at a high temporal cadence of 2 s in wings of the H$\alpha$ spectral line using Goode Solar Telescope (GST) operating at the Big Bear Solar Observatory. We inspected a 30 minute long…
We investigate high resolution spectroscopic and imaging observations from the CRisp Imaging SpectroPolarimeter (CRISP) instrument to study the dynamics of chromospheric spicule type events. It is widely accepted that chromospheric fine…
Magnetic elements on the quiet sun are buffeted by convective flows that cause lateral motions on timescales of minutes. The magnetic elements can be observed as bright points (BPs) in the G band at 4305 {\AA}. We present observations of…

We use high-resolution observations of the Sun in Ca II H 3968 A from the Solar Optical Telescope on Hinode to show that there are at least two types of spicules that dominate the structure of the magnetic solar chromosphere. Both types are…
Rapid Blue Excursions (RBEs) are transient blue-shifted chromospheric absorption features widely interpreted as the on-disk counterparts of Type II solar spicules. We investigate their dynamic properties using high-cadence spectral…

We attempt to understand the driving mechanism of a macrospicule and its relationship with a coronal jet. We study the dynamics of a macrospicule and an associated coronal jet captured by multi-spacecraft observations. Doppler velocities…
Wave theories of heating the chromosphere, corona, and solar wind due to photospheric fluctuations are strengthened by the existence of observed wave coherency up to the transition region (TR). The coherency of solar spicules' intensity…
Spicules have often been proposed as substantial contributors toward the mass and energy balance of the solar corona. While their transition region (TR) counterpart has unequivocally been established over the past decade, the observations…
Solar spicules are the fundamental magnetic structures in the chromosphere and considered to play a key role in channelling the chromosphere and corona. Recently, it was suggested by De Pontieu et al. that there were two types of spicules…
Recently, De Pontieu et al. (2007b) discovered a class of spicules that evolves more rapidly than previously known spicules, with rapid apparent motions of 50--150 km s${}^{-1}$, thickness of a few 100 km, and lifetimes of order 10--60…
