In this work, we present SoFT: Solar Feature Tracking, a novel feature-tracking tool developed in Python and designed to detect, identify, and track magnetic elements in the solar atmosphere. It relies on a watershed segmentation algorithm…
We present a technique to construct a spectropolarimetrically accurate magneto-hydrostatic model of a large-scale solar magnetic field concentration, mimicking a sunspot. Using the constructed model we perform a simulation of acoustic wave…
By studying young magnetically active late-type stars, i.e. analogues to the young Sun, one can draw conclusions on the evolution of the solar dynamo. We determine the topology of the surface magnetic field and study the relation between…
We model interaction of photons, pseudoscalars and vector mesons within the resonance chiral symmetric theory with the SU(3) breaking. The couplings of the model are fitted to the experimental data. Within the developed model we predict the…
The PVLAS collaboration has recently reported the observation of a rotation of the polarization plane of light propagating through a transverse static magnetic field. Such an effect can arise from the production of a light, m_A ~ meV,…
Sunspots are concentrations of magnetic field visible on the solar surface (photosphere). It was considered implausible that solar flares, as resulted from magnetic reconnection in the tenuous corona, would cause a direct perturbation of…
We study flare processes in the lower solar atmosphere using observational data for a M1-class flare of June 12, 2014, obtained by New Solar Telescope (NST/BBSO) and Helioseismic Magnetic Imager (HMI/SDO). The main goal is to understand…

The recent TRIUMF experiment for $\mu^- p \to n \nu_{\mu} \gamma$ gave a surprising result that the induced pseudoscalar coupling constant $g_P$ was larger than the value obtained from $\mu^- p \to n \nu_{\mu}$ experiment as much as 44 %.…
We study interacting classical magnetic and pseudoscalar fields in frames of the axion electrodynamics. A large scale pseudoscalar field can be the coherent superposition of axions or axion like particles. We consider the evolution of these…
We propose a new method to determine magnetic fields, by using the magnetic-field induced electric dipole transition $3p^43d\,^4\mathrm{D}_{7/2}$ $\rightarrow$ $3p^5\, ^2\mathrm{P}_{3/2}$ in Fe$^{9+}$ ions. This ion has a high abundance in…
Bright small-scale magnetic elements found mainly in intergranular lanes at the solar surface are named bright points (BPs). They show high contrasts in Fraunhofer G-band observations and are described by nearly vertical slender flux tubes…
The contribution of pseudoscalar pole diagrams to the hadronic light-by-light corrections of order alpha^3 E_F to the ground state hyperfine splitting in hydrogenic atom is calculated in the pseudoscalar pole terms approximation. The vector…
Many previous studies have shown that magnetic fields as well as sunspot structures present rapid and irreversible changes associated with solar flares. In this paper we first use five X-class flares observed by SDO/HMI to show that not…

Context. The High Resolution Telescope of the Polarimetric and Helioseismic Imager on Solar Orbiter (SO/PHI-HRT) operates in an extreme observational environment, observing the Sun as close as $0.28$ au. The high thermal load and large…
We study the possibility of evading astrophysical bounds on light pseudoscalars. We argue that the solar bounds can be evaded if we have a sufficiently strong self coupling of the pseudoscalars. The required couplings do not conflict with…
In many extentions of standard model, dimension-5 scalar di-photon ($g_{\gamma\gamma\phi}\phi$ $F^{\mu\nu}F_{\mu\nu}$ ) or pseudoscalar di-photon ($g_{\gamma\gamma a}a\tilde{F}^{\mu\nu} F_{\mu\nu} $, ) interaction materializes due to scale…
