Context. Solar active regions show a wide variety of oscillatory phenomena. The presence of the magnetic field leads to the appearance of several wave modes...
Stability of sunspots to convective motions. I - Adiabatic instability
For determining the adiabatic stability of a uniform vertical field in an arbitrary stratification it is sufficient to consider the limit of infinitesimal...
Standing sausage waves in photospheric magnetic waveguides
Aims: By focussing on the oscillations of the cross-sectional area and the total intensity of magnetic waveguides located in the lower solar atmosphere, we aim...
Stray-light effects on the solar intensity distribution
A description of the stray-light problem based on a radiative transfer approach is presented. The 2D convolution that describes the effect of the stray-light is...
Stray-light measurements at the Observatorio del Teide
A new procedure to separate the instrumental and atmospheric components of stray light is presented. It is based on the dependence of the aureole's atmospheric...
Structure and Dynamics of the Sun's Interior Revealed by the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager
High-resolution helioseismology observations with the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) onboard the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) provide a unique three...
Structure of sunspot light bridges in the chromosphere and transition region
Context. Light bridges (LBs) are elongated structures with enhanced intensity embedded in sunspot umbra and pores. Aims: We studied the properties of a sample...
SUNRISE III: Instrument, Mission, Data, and First Results
SUNRISE III is a stratospheric balloon-borne solar observatory with a 1 m diameter telescope and three postfocus instruments, along with an image stabilisation...
Sunspot irradiance deficit, facular excess, and the energy balance of solar active regions.
Plage areas and intensities derived from CaIIK spectroheliograms are used as a proxy for the facular irradiance excess of solar active regions for the period 19...
