Modelling Quasi-Periodic Pulsations in Solar and Stellar Flares

Nakariakov, V. M.; Jelínek, P.; McLaughlin, J. A. +2 more

Solar flare emission is detected in all EM bands and variations in flux density of solar energetic particles. Often the EM radiation generated in solar and stellar flares shows a pronounced oscillatory pattern, with characteristic periods ranging from a fraction of a second to several minutes. These oscillations are referred to as quasi-periodic p…

Global Non-Potential Magnetic Models of the Solar Corona During the March 2015 Eclipse

Morgan, Huw; Feng, Xueshang; Downs, Cooper +17 more

Seven different models are applied to the same problem of simulating the Sun's coronal magnetic field during the solar eclipse on 2015 March 20. All of the models are non-potential, allowing for free magnetic energy, but the associated electric currents are developed in significantly different ways. This is not a direct comparison of the coronal m…
