Waves, bursts, and instabilities: a multi-scale investigation of energetic plasma processes in the solar chromosphere and transition region

The chromosphere and transition region of the solar atmosphere provide an interface between the cool photosphere (6000 K) and the hot corona (1 million K). Both layers exhibit dramatic deviations from thermal and hydrostatic equilibrium in the form of intense plasma heating and mass transfer. The...
