We report an observation of a partially erupting prominence and associated dynamical plasma processes based on observations recorded by the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on board the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). The prominence first goes through a slow rise (SR) phase followed by a fast rise (FR). The slow rise phase started after a couple of small brightenings seen toward the footpoints. At the turning point from SR to FR, the prominence had already become kinked. The prominence shows strong brightening at the central kink location during the start of FR. We interpret this as internal magnetic reconnection occurring at a vertical current sheet forming between the two legs of the erupting prominence (flux-rope). The brightening at the central kink location is seen in all the EUV channels of AIA. The contributions of differential emission at higher temperatures are larger compared to that for typical coronal temperatures supporting a reconnection scenario at the central kink location. The plasma above the brightening location gets ejected as a hot plasmoid-like structure embedded in a CME, and those below drain down in the form of blobs moving towards the Suns surface. The unique time resolution of the AIA has allowed all of these eruptive aspects, including SR-to-FR, kinking, central current sheet formation, plasmoid-like eruption, and filament splitting, to be observed in a single event, providing strong and comprehensive evidence in favour of the model of partially erupting flux ropes.
We report on a statistical study of prominence eruptions (PEs) using a catalog of these events routinely imaged by the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on board the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) in the 304 r{A} pass band. Using an algorithm deve
A bright prominence associated with a coronal mass ejection (CME) was seen erupting from the Sun on 9 April 2008. This prominence was tracked by both the Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO) EUVI and COR1 telescopes, and was seen to rotat
Waves have long been thought to contribute to the heating of the solar corona and the generation of the solar wind. Recent observations have demonstrated evidence of quasi-periodic longitudinal disturbances and ubiquitous transverse wave propagation
We report on the variability of rotation periods of solar coronal layers with respect to temperature (or, height). For this purpose, we have used the observations from Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) telescope on board Solar Dynamics Observatory (
