Investigating properties of coronal rain
Lead Research Organisation:
University of St Andrews
Department Name: Mathematics and Statistics
Abstract
This project will combine both space and ground based observations with numerical modelling of coronal rain. Coronal rain results from a thermal instability following coronal loop heating and is thought to carry signatures of the actual heating process. In addition, coronal rain traces and hence outlines the finely structured magnetic field. Observations of waves and oscillations in coronal rain open up the potential of coronal seismology applications.
