Using mainly the 1600 angstrom continuum channel, and also the 1216 angstrom Lyman-alpha channel (which includes some UV continuum and C IV emission), aboard the TRACE satellite, we observed the complete lifetime of a transient, bright chromospheric loop. Simultaneous observations with the SUMER instrument aboard the SOHO spacecraft revealed interesting material velocities through the Doppler effect existing above the chromospheric loop imaged with TRACE, possibly corresponding to extended non-visible loops, or the base of an X-ray jet.

Stellar activity is inherently time variable, therefore simultaneous measurements are necessary to study the correlation between different activity indicators. In this study we compare X-ray fluxes measured within the first all-sky survey conducted b
y the extended ROentgen Survey with an Imaging Telescope Array (eROSITA) instrument on board the Spectrum-Roentgen-Gamma (SRG) observatory to Ca II H & K, excess flux measurements R+, using observations made with the robotic TIGRE telescope. We created the largest sample of simultaneous X-ray and spectroscopic Ca II H & K observations of late-type stars obtained so far, and in addition, previous measurements of Ca II H & K for all sample stars were obtained. We find the expected correlation between our log(L_X/L_bol) to log(R+) measurements, but when the whole stellar ensemble is considered, the correlation between coronal and chromospheric activity indicators does not improve when the simultaneously measured data are used. A more detailed analysis shows that the correlation of log(L_X/L_bol) to log(R+) measurements of the pseudo-simultaneous data still has a high probability of being better than that of a random set of non-simultaneous measurements with a long time baseline between the observations. Cyclic variations on longer timescales are therefore far more important for the activity flux-flux relations than short-term variations in the form of rotational modulation or flares, regarding the addition of noise to the activity flux-flux correlations. Finally, regarding the question of predictability of necessarily space-based log(L_X/L_bol) measurements by using ground-based chromospheric indices, we present a relation for estimating log(L_X/L_bol) from R+ values and show that the expected error in the calculated minus observed (C-O) log(L_X/L_bol) values is 0.35 dex.
A class X1.5 flare started on the solar limb at 00:43 UT on 21 April 2002, which was associated with a CME observed at 01:27 UT by LASCO C2. The coordinated analyses of this flare include TRACE 195 {AA} images and SUMER spectra in lines of Fe XXI, Fe
XII, and C II. We find that: 1) The flare began with a jet seen by TRACE, which was detected by SUMER in the C II line as a strong brightening with blue shifts up to 170 km s$^{-1}$. At that time only weak emission was detected in Fe XII and Fe XXI. 2) Subsequently, a weak looplike brightening started south of the jet, moving outwards with an average speed of about 150 km s$^{-1}$. The SUMER spectra responded this moving loop as separatingly brightenings, visible only in the Fe XXI line. The southwards moving component contains red- and blue-shifted emission features and has an apparent speed of $sim$120 km s$^{-1}$. The absence of signatures in Fe XII and C II lines indicates that the moving weak loop seen by TRACE corresponds to the emission from very hot plasma, in a blend line in the 195 {AA} bandpass due to Fe XXIV formed at T > 10 MK. 3) The trigger mechanism of the flare and associated CME can be interpreted in the same way as that proposed by Wang et al. (2002) for an event with similar initial features.
The objectives of the present study is to provide a better physical understanding of the complex inter-relation and evolution of several solar coronal features comprising a double-peak flare, a coronal dimming caused by a CME, a CME-driven compressio
n, and a fast-mode wave. For the first time, the evolution of an asymmetric eruptive filament is analysed in simultaneous SUMER spectroscopic and TRACE and EIT imaging data. We use imaging observations from EIT and TRACE in the 195A channel and spectroscopic observations from the CDS in a rastering and SUMER in a sit-and-stare observing mode. The SUMER spectra cover spectral lines with formation temperatures from logT(K) ~ 4.0 to 6.1. Although the event was already analysed in two previous studies, our analysis brings a wealth of new information on the dynamics and physical properties of the observed phenomena. We found that the dynamic event is related to a complex flare with two distinct impulsive peaks, one according to the GOES classification as C1.1 and the second - C1.9. The first energy release triggers a fast-mode wave and a CME with a clear CME driven compression ahead of it. This activity is related to, or possibly caused, by an asymmetric filament eruption. The filament is observed to rise with its leading edge moving at a speed of ~300 km/s detected both in the SUMER and CDS data. The rest of the filament body moves at only ~150 km/s while untwisting. No signature is found of the fast-mode wave in the SUMER data, suggesting that the plasma disturbed by the wave had temperatures above 600 000 K. The erupting filament material is found to emit only in spectral lines at transition region temperatures. Earlier identification of a coronal response detected in the Mg X 609.79 A line is found to be caused by a blend from the O IV 609.83 A line.
In this work we use solar observations with the ALMA radio telescope at the wavelength of 1.21 mm. The aim of the analysis is to improve understanding of the solar chromosphere, a dynamic layer in the solar atmosphere between the photosphere and coro
na. The study has an observational and a modeling part. In the observational part full-disc solar images are analyzed. Based on a modified FAL atmospheric model, radiation models for various observed solar structures are developed. Finally, the observational and modeling results are compared and discussed.
In the present work we derive a Differential Emission Measure (DEM) dis- tribution from a region dominated by spicules. We use spectral data from the Solar Ultraviolet Measurements of Emitted Radiation (SUMER) spectrometer on-board the Solar Heliosph
eric Observatory (SoHO) covering the entire SUMER wavelength range taken off-limb in the Northern polar coronal hole to construct this DEM distribution using the CHIANTI atomic database. This distribution is then used to study the thermal properties of the emission contributing to the 171 {AA} channel in the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on-board the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). From our off-limb DEM we found that the radiance in the AIA 171 {AA} channel is dominated by emission from the Fe ix 171.07 {AA} line and has sparingly little contribution from other lines. The product of the Fe ix 171.07 {AA} line contribution function with the off-limb DEM was found to have a maximum at logTmax (K) = 5.8 indicating that during spicule observations the emission in this line comes from plasma at transition region temperatures rather than coronal. For comparison, the same product with a quiet Sun and prominence DEM were found to have a maximum at logT max (K) = 5.9 and logTmax (K) = 5.7, respectively. We point out that the interpretation of data obtained from the AIA 171 {AA} filter should be done with foreknowledge of the thermal nature of the observed phenomenon. For example, with an off-limb DEM we find that only 3.6% of the plasma is above a million degrees, whereas using a quiet Sun DEM, this contribution rises to 15%.
