Solar flare ribbons are features in the lower atmosphere that show enhanced emission intensity, particularly noticeable in H$\alpha$ and EUV images of the transition region and upper chromosphere. In this study, we provide observational…

Extreme ultraviolet (EUV) coronal dimmings are often observed in response to solar eruptive events. These phenomena can be generated via several different physical processes. For space weather, the most important of these is the temporary…
