The detection of 3 & 5 min period oscillations in coronal loops

I De Moortel, J Ireland, AW Hood, RW Walsh - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2002 - aanda.org

disturbances are a common feature in large, quiescent coronal loops. These oscillations are …

Critical conditions for magnetic instabilities in force-free coronal loops

AW Hood, ER Priest - Geophysical & Astrophysical Fluid Dynamics, 1981 - Taylor & Francis
The remarkable magnetohydrodynamic stability of solar coronal loops has been attributed
to the anchoring of the ends of loops in the dense photosphere. However, all the previous …
