We present observational analysis of two successive two-sided loop jets observed by the ground-based New Vacuum Solar Telescope (NVST) and the space-borne Solar Dynamics Observatory ( SDO). The two successive two-sided loop jets manifested similar evolution process and both were associated with the interaction of two small-scale adjacent filamentary threads, magnetic emerging and cancellation processes at the jets source region. High temporal and high spatial resolution observations reveal that the two adjacent ends of the two filamentary threads are rooted in opposite magnetic polarities within the source region. The two threads approached to each other, and then an obvious brightening patch is observed at the interaction position. Subsequently, a pair of hot plasma ejections are observed heading to opposite directions along the paths of the two filamentary threads, and with a typical speed of two-sided loop jets of the order 150 km/s. Close to the end of the second jet, we report the formation of a bright hot loop structure at the source region, which suggests the formation of new loops during the interaction. Based on the observational results, we propose that the observed two-sided loop jets are caused by the magnetic reconnection between the two adjacent filamentary threads, largely different from the previous scenario that a two-sided loop jet is generated by magnetic reconnection between an emerging bipole and the overlying horizontal magnetic fields.

Using high spatial and temporal data from the New Vacuum Solar Telescope (NVST) and the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), we present unambiguous observations of recurrent two-sided loop jets caused by magnetic reconnection between erupting minifilame
nts and nearby large filament. The observations demonstrate that three two-sided loop jets, which ejected along the large filament in opposite directions, had similar appearance and originated from the same region. We find that a minifilament erupted and drove the first jet. It reformed at the same neutral line later, and then underwent partial and total eruptions, drove the second and third jets, respectively. In the course of the jets, cool plasma was injected into the large filament. Furthermore, persistent magnetic flux cancelation occurred at the neutral line under the minifilament before its eruption and continued until the end of the observation. We infer that magnetic flux cancellation may account for building and then triggering the minifilament to erupt to produce the two-sided loop jets. This observation not only indicates that two-sided loop jets can be driven by minifilament eruptions, but also sheds new light on our understanding of the recurrent mechanism of two-sided loop jets.
Coronal jets are always produced by magnetic reconnection between emerging flux and pre-existing overlying magnetic fields. When the overlying field is vertical/obilique or horizontal, the coronal jet will appear as anemone type or two-sided-loop typ
e. Most of observational jets are of the anemone type, and only a few of two-sided-loop jets have been reported. Using the high-quality data from New Vacuum Solar Telescope, Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph, and Solar Dynamics Observatory, we present an example of two-sided-loop jets simultaneously observed in the chromosphere, transition region, and corona. The continuous emergence of magnetic flux brought in successively emerging of coronal loops and the slowly rising of an overlying horizontal filament threads. Sequentially, there appeared the deformation of the loops, the plasmoids ejection from the loop top, and pairs of loop brightenings and jet moving along the untwisting filament threads. All the observational results indicate there exist magnetic reconnection between the emerging loops and overlying horizontal filament threads, and it is the first example of two-sided-loop jets associated with ejected plasmoids and twisted overlying fields.
Employing Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO)/Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) multi-wavelength images, we report the coronal condensation during the magnetic reconnection (MR) between a system of open and closed coronal loops. Higher-lying magnetical
ly open structures, observed in AIA 171 A images above the solar limb, move downward and interact with the lower-lying closed loops, resulting in the formation of dips in the former. An X-type structure forms at the interface. The interacting loops reconnect and disappear. Two sets of newly-reconnected loops then form and recede from the MR region. During the MR process, bright emission appears sequentially in the AIA 131 A and 304 A channels repeatedly in the dips of higher-lying open structures. This indicates the cooling and condensation process of hotter plasma from ~0.9 MK down to ~0.6 MK, and then to ~0.05 MK, also supported by the light curves of the AIA 171 A, 131 A, and 304 A channels. The part of higher-lying open structures supporting the condensations participate in the successive MR. The condensations without support by underlying loops then rain back to the solar surface along the newly-reconnected loops. Our results suggest that the MR between coronal loops leads to the condensation of hotter coronal plasma and its downflows. MR thus plays an active role in the mass cycle of coronal plasma because it can initiate the catastrophic cooling and condensation. This underlines that the magnetic and thermal evolution has to be treated together and cannot be separated, even in the case of catastrophic cooling.
A second emission enhancement in warm coronal extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) lines (about 2-7 MK) during some solar flares is known as the EUV late phase. Imaging observations confirm that the late phase emission originates from a set of longer or higher
loops than the main flare loops. Nevertheless, some questions remain controversial: What is the relationship between these two loop systems? What is the heating source of late phase emission, a heating accompany the main phase heating or occuring quite later? In this paper, we present clear evidence for heating source in a late-phase solar flare: magnetic reconnection of overlying field in a quadrupolar magnetic configuration. The event is triggered by an erupted core structure that eventually leads to a coronal mass ejection (CME). Cusp feature and its shrinkage motion high in the late-phase emission region are the manifestation of the later phase reconnection following the main flare reconnection. Using the enthalpy-based thermal evolution of loops (EBTEL) model, we reasonably reproduce the late-phase emissions in some EUV lines. We suggest that a continuous additional heating is responsible for the appearance of the elongated EUV late phase.
Magnetic reconnection modulated by non-local disturbances in the solar atmosphere has been investigated theoretically, but rarely observed. In this study, employing Ha and extreme ultraviolet (EUV) images and line of sight magnetograms, we report acc
eleration of reconnection by adjacent filament eruption. In Ha images, four groups of chromospheric fibrils are observed to form a saddle-like structure. Among them, two groups of fibrils converge and reconnect. Two newly reconnected fibrils then form, and retract away from the reconnection region. In EUV images, similar structures and evolution of coronal loops are identified. Current sheet forms repeatedly at the interface of reconnecting loops, with width and length of 1-2 and 5.3-7.2 Mm, and reconnection rate of 0.18-0.3. It appears in the EUV low-temperature channels, with average differential emission measure (DEM) weighed temperature and EM of 2 MK and 2.5*10^27 cm-5. Plasmoids appear in the current sheet and propagate along it, and then further along the reconnection loops. The filament, located at the southeast of reconnection region, erupts, and pushes away the loops covering the reconnection region. Thereafter, the current sheet has width and length of 2 and 3.5 Mm, and reconnection rate of 0.57. It becomes much brighter, and appears in the EUV high-temperature channels, with average DEM-weighed temperature and EM of 5.5 MK and 1.7*10^28 cm-5. In the current sheet, more hotter plasmoids form. More thermal and kinetic energy is hence converted. These results suggest that the reconnection is significantly accelerated by the propagating disturbance caused by the nearby filament eruption.
