Coronal loops are the building blocks of the X-ray bright solar corona. They owe their
brightness to the dense confined plasma, and this review focuses on loops mostly as …

We focus on new observational capabilities (Yohkoh, SoHO, TRACE), observations,
modeling approaches, and insights into physical processes of the solar corona. The most …

Context. A standard model for eruptive flares aims at describing observational 3D features of
the reconnecting coronal magnetic field. Extensions to the 2D model require the physical …

Recent observations from TRACE in the photospheric white-light channel have shown
sunspots that rotate up to 200° about their umbral centre over a period of 3–5 days. The …

Context. The paper is concerned with heating of the solar corona by nanoflares: a
superposition of small transient events in which stored magnetic energy is dissipated by …

During substructure formation in magnetized astrophysical plasma, dissipation of magnetic
energy facilitated by magnetic reconnection affects the system dynamics by heating and …

Aims. We perform a three-dimensional (3D) high resolution numerical simulation in
isothermal magnetohydrodynamics to study the magnetic reconnection process in a current …

We revisit the ideal MHD stability of the kink mode in configurations representative of
coronal loops, using a stability code. We adopt different magnetic force-free equilibria …

Using multiwavelength imaging observations from the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly on
board the Solar Dynamics Observatory on 2012 May 3, we present a novel physical …

Multiwavelength observations of the propagating disturbances (PDs), discovered by
Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on board Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), are …
