In this paper we describe a novel method for delivering a precise, known amount of electric charge to a micron-sized solid target. Aerosolised microparticles passed through a plasma discharge will acquire significant electric charge. The fluid stabil

The white-light continuum emission of a solar flare remains a puzzle as regards its height of formation and its emission mechanism(s). This continuum, and its extension into the near UV, contain the bulk of the energy radiated by a flare, and so its

We describe an archive of high-precision MDI flat fields that can be used to refine most MDI high-resolution continuum data. The archive consists of many flat-field images representing different time ranges over the full operating period of SOHO. The

Context: The atmosphere of the quiet Sun is controlled by photospheric flows sweeping up concentrations of mixed polarity magnetic field. Along supergranule boundaries and junctions, there is a strong correlation between magnetic flux and bright chro

Context. The SOHO satellite now offers a unique perspective on the Sun as it is the only space-based instrument that can provide large, high-resolution data sets over an entire 11-year solar cycle. This unique property enables detailed studies of lon

We have developed an exceptionally noise-resistant method for accurate and automatic identification of supergranular cell boundaries from velocity measurements. Because of its high noise tolerance the algorithm can produce reliable cell patterns with

We present data and modelling for the quiet Sun that strongly suggest a ubiquitous small-scale atmospheric heating mechanism that is driven solely by converging supergranular flows. A possible energy source for such events is the power transfer to th

Elongated dust grains exist in astrophysical plasmas. Anisotropic growth of elliptical dust grains, via plasma deposition, occurs if the deposited ions are non-inertial. In reality the extent of such growth depends upon the initial kinetic energy of

Alfven ionization is offered as a possible mechanism underlying the enhanced population of low first ionization potential (FIP) species in the solar corona. In this process, the photospheric flow impinging on the magnetic structure of a coronal flux

We present a method for tracking solar photospheric flows that is highly efficient, and demonstrate it using high resolution MDI continuum images. The method involves making a surface from the photospheric granulation data, and allowing many small fl
