Solar Physics
Conversion of Magnetic-Field Energy and Energetic Particles in the Sun and Heliosphere
Magnetic field energy conversion and energetic particles in the Sun and heliosphere.
The session would be dedicated to exploring the evidence – both observational and theoretical – concerning how magnetic field energy is converted into both thermal and non-thermal particle energy in various events in the solar atmosphere and heliosphere. Understanding these physical process is essential to solar activity and its effects through “space weather”.

Topics covered will include various types of magnetic reconnection scenarios, their detection from observational topologies, and conversion of magnetic energy into energetic particles via various types of acceleration mechanisms. Observational studies of energetic particles, both near the Sun and in situ space measurements, will be welcome, as well as theoretical and computational models of energy release and particle acceleration and transport.
