Strong solar flares and coronal mass ejections, here defined not only as the bursts of
electromagnetic radiation but as the entire process in which magnetic energy is released …

As observed in Thomson-scattered white light, coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are manifest
as large-scale expulsions of plasma magnetically driven from the corona in the most …

Solar eruptions are spectacular magnetic explosions in the Sun's corona, and how they are
initiated remains unclear. Prevailing theories often rely on special magnetic topologies that …

Magnetic reconnection is a multi-faceted process of energy conversion in astrophysical,
space and laboratory plasmas that operates at microscopic scales but has macroscopic …

This review article summarizes the advancement in the studies of Earth-affecting solar
transients in the last decade that encompasses most of solar cycle 24. It is a part of the effort …

Magnetic fields play a fundamental role in the structure and dynamics of the solar corona. As
they are driven by their footpoint motions on the solar surface, which transport energy from …

Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and solar flares are the large-scale and most energetic
eruptive phenomena in our solar system and able to release a large quantity of plasma and …

Solar eruptions are the main driver of space-weather disturbances at Earth. Extreme events
are of particular interest, not only because of the scientific challenges they pose, but also …

Solar and stellar flares are the most intense emitters of X-rays and extreme ultraviolet
radiation in planetary systems,. On the Sun, strong flares are usually found in newly …

Abstract Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) are the key drivers of strong to extreme space
weather storms at the Earth that can have drastic consequences for technological systems in …
