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 …

Coronal jets represent important manifestations of ubiquitous solar transients, which may be
the source of significant mass and energy input to the upper solar atmosphere and the solar …

As the interface between the Sun's photosphere and corona, the chromosphere and
transition region play a key role in the formation and acceleration of the solar wind …

The chromosphere is a thin layer of the solar atmosphere that bridges the relatively cool
photosphere and the intensely heated transition region and corona. Compressible and …

The solar chromosphere forms a crucial, yet complex and until recently poorly understood,
interface between the solar photosphere and the heliosphere.▪ Advances in high-resolution …

Alfvén waves are considered to be viable transporters of the non-thermal energy required to
heat the Sun's quiescent atmosphere. An abundance of recent observations, from state-of …

Over the last two decades the uninterrupted, high resolution observations of the Sun, from
the excellent range of telescopes aboard many spacecraft complemented with observations …

Understanding the dynamic solar chromosphere is fundamental in solar physics. Spicules
are an important feature of the chromosphere, connecting the photosphere to the corona …

Hinode is Japan's third solar mission following Hinotori (1981–1982) and Yohkoh (1991–
2001): it was launched on 2006 September 22 and is in operation currently. Hinode carries …

Spicules are rapidly evolving fine-scale jets of magnetized plasma in the solar
chromosphere. It remains unclear how these prevalent jets originate from the solar surface …
