  • Publication
    On the Probable Existence of an Abrupt Magnetization in the Upper Chromosphere of the Quiet Sun
    We report on a detailed radiative transfer modeling of the observed scattering polarization in the Hα line, which allows us to infer quantitative information on...
  • Publication
    On the Robustness of the Pendulum Model for Large-amplitude Longitudinal Oscillations in Prominences
    Large-amplitude longitudinal oscillations (LALOs) in prominences are spectacular manifestations of solar activity. In such events nearby energetic disturbances...
  • Publication
    On the Scaling of the Damping Time for Resonantly Damped Oscillations in Coronal Loops
    There is not as yet full agreement on the mechanism that causes the rapid damping of the oscillations observed by TRACE in coronal loops. It has been suggested...
  • Publication
    On the sensitivity of the Halpha scattering polarization to chromospheric magnetism
    A particularly interesting line for exploring the physical conditions of the quiet solar chromosphere is Halpha , but its intensity profile is magnetically...
  • Publication
    On the Sr I λ4607 Å Hanle depolarization signals in the quiet Sun
    The Hanle depolarization signals of Sr i λ4607 Å have been used to estimate the unsigned magnetic flux and magnetic energy existing in the quiet Sun photosphere...
  • Publication
    On the Stokes V Amplitude Ratio as an Indicator of the Field Strength in the Solar Internetwork
    The results of the determination of magnetic field strength from weak polarimetric signals in solar internetwork regions are contradictory. We investigate the...
  • Publication
    On the Storage of Magnetic Flux Tubes at the Base of the Solar Convection Zone
    The study of the storage of toroidal flux tubes at the base of the convection zone is of interest in connection with the operation of a solar αΩ-type dynamo...
  • Publication
    On the theory of MAG waves and a comparison with sunspot observations from CDS/SoHO
    We examine the influence of non-adiabatic effects on the modes of an isothermal stratified magnetic atmosphere. We present new solutions for magneto-acoustic...
  • Publication
    On the validity of quasi-linear kinematic mean-field electrodynamics in astrophysical flows
    Mean-field theory in its kinematic form with the quasi-linear approximation is widely used for the modelling of the transport of weak magnetic fields in...
