This research focuses on understanding the heating mechanisms of the solar corona, which is significantly hotter than the sun's surface. By using advanced simulations and high-resolution observations, it aims to map energy transfer processes in the solar atmosphere.
Sun-like stars possess magnetically confined, upper atmospheres.
These coronae have temperatures of several million degrees and thus are much hotter than the underlying stellar surfaces (photospheres) which have temperatures of the order of 6000 degrees.
The coronae are hotter than the photospheres because magnetic energy is generated by convective motions beneath the stellar surface and then transported through the photosphere into the corona where it is dissipated.
The key to understanding the…
