Plenary 5
- Louise Harra (PMOD/WRC and ETH-Zurich)
Solar flares are efficient particle accelerators and prime laboratories for studying astrophysical acceleration and transport processes and our understanding has been enhanced by observationally-driven modelling and multi-wavelength observations from X-rays to (E)UV to radio. During the flare, random motions of the magnetised plasma leading to turbulence may play a vital role in converting...
Flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) cause immediate and adverse effects on the interplanetary space and geospace. In an era of space-based technological civilization, the deeper understanding of the mechanisms that produce them and the construction of efficient prediction schemes are of paramount importance. The source regions of flares and CMEs exhibit some common morphological...
With the first Solar Orbiter (SO) data being available from the cruise phase, it is now possible to simultaneously observe the Sun from additional vantage points off the Earth-Sun line. One of its instruments, the Polarimetric and Heliospheric Imager (PHI), is the first spectro-polarimeter to operate outside of this line of sight. This opens the opportunity for joint observational campaigns...
A solar flare is one of the most impressive solar phenomena emitting a wide range of electromagnetic emission from meter radio to gamma rays. The various mechanisms of radio emission generation allow following all stages of flare evolution from early pre-flare emission to decay phase. Nowadays, modern radio instruments (ALMA, EOVSA, MUSER, LOFAR, SRH, et cetera) provide spectral and spatial...
Solar flares are one of the common sources of solar energetic particles filling the heliosphere. The details of particle acceleration and escape from the solar atmosphere are still a subject of close investigation, and one of the scientific questions addressed by the Solar Orbiter mission. In this paper we will present preliminary results of an event that occurred on 9th May 2021, for which...
