The phenomenon of quasi-periodic pulsations (QPPs) in solar and stellar flares has been
known for over 50 years and significant progress has been made in this research area. It has …

The corona of the Sun is a unique environment in which magnetohydrodynamic (MHD)
waves, one of the fundamental processes of plasma astrophysics, are open to a direct study …

Aims. Solar Orbiter, the first mission of ESA's Cosmic Vision 2015–2025 programme and a
mission of international collaboration between ESA and NASA, will explore the Sun and …

The heliosphere represents a uniquely accessible domain of space, where fundamental
physical processes common to solar, astrophysical and laboratory plasmas can be studied …

We review our state of knowledge of coronal element abundance anomalies in the Sun and
stars. We concentrate on the first ionization potential (FIP) effect observed in the solar …

In situ measurements of the solar wind have been available for almost 60 years, and in that
time plasma physics simulation capabilities have commenced and ground‐based solar …

The corona is a layer of hot plasma that surrounds the Sun, traces out its complex magnetic
field, and ultimately expands into interplanetary space as the supersonic solar wind …

Determining the heating mechanism (or mechanisms) that causes the outer atmosphere of
the Sun, and many other stars, to reach temperatures orders of magnitude higher than their …

Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) oscillatory processes in different plasma systems, such as the
corona of the Sun and the Earth's magnetosphere, show interesting similarities and …

X-ray and ultraviolet (UV) observations of the outer solar atmosphere have been used for
many decades to measure the fundamental parameters of the solar plasma. This review …
