A description of the emergence of large concentrations of magnetic fields (active regions) at the solar surface is presented. The dark structures known as...
CHromospheric magnetic fields in fLAREs and their evolution CHLARE
This project aims to study the variations of the solar magnetic field in flares, the most energetic events in our solar system. Flares accelerate charged...
Chromospheric Resonances above Sunspots and Potential Seismological Applications
Oscillations in sunspot umbrae exhibit remarkable differences between the photosphere and chromosphere. We evaluate two competing scenarios proposed for...
Collisional phenomena in the lower solar atmosphere
The lower solar atmosphere is very weakly ionized, and by conductivity it is comparable to the sea water. The collisional frequency for electrons and ions can...
Considering three-dimensional effects in spectral irradiance modeling
Total spectral irradiance is typically modeled by assinging an atmospheric model to each pixel of a full disk image and geometricllay combining the predicted...
Deciphering Solar Coronal Heating: Energizing Small-scale Loops through Surface Convection
The solar atmosphere is filled with clusters of hot small-scale loops commonly known as coronal bright points (CBPs). These ubiquitous structures stand out in...
Doppler measurements, using the Capri magnetograph, of the latitudinal fine structure of the solar differential rotation have been carried out. The positions of...
Fe I lines in spectra of cool stars: NLTE effects in solar-like atmosphere.
A detailed NLTE investigation of Fe I lines is carried out for the MACKKL quiet solar atmospheric model using a very realistic iron atomic model. This improved...
