Coronal loops are the building blocks of the X-ray bright solar corona. They owe their
brightness to the dense confined plasma, and this review focuses on loops mostly as …

The question of what heats the solar corona remains one of the most important problems in
astrophysics. Finding a definitive solution involves a number of challenging steps, beginning …

The magnetic field of the Sun is the underlying cause of the many diverse phenomena
combined under the heading of solar activity. Here we describe the magnetic field as it …

Recent observations of coronal loops in EUV wavelengths with the Transition Region and
Coronal Explorer (TRACE) and the Extreme-Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (EIT) on the …

The temperature T e (s) and density structure ne (s) of active region loops in EUV observed
with TRACE is modeled with a multithread model, synthesized from the summed emission of …

The radiative signatures of the nanoflare model for coronal heating are investigated. If an
observed coronal loop is assumed to consist of many small strands that cannot be …

This study focuses on the diagnostic capabilities of the TRACE and SOHO-CDS instruments
to describe the physical characteristics of quiescent solar active regions. In particular we …

We focus on new observational capabilities (Yohkoh, SoHO, TRACE), observations,
modeling approaches, and insights into physical processes of the solar corona. The most …

This study represents the first quantitative analysis of the multithread structure of coronal
loops. We analyzed a set of 234 fine loop threads observed with TRACE triple-filter images …

Active region coronal loop observations with broadband X-ray instruments have often been
found to be consistent with the predictions of static loop models. Recent observations in the …
