Session Description | Flares and CMEs are two spectacular manifestations of the explosive release of magnetic energy in the solar atmosphere. The released magnetic energy is transformed into kinetic and thermal energy and radiations. The focus of this session is to discuss how multi-wavelength observations and in situ measurements from current (IRIS, SDO, RHESSI, Hinode, NoRH, NRH, OVSA, STEREO, Wind, ACE) and future (Solar Orbiter, Solar Probe Plus) instruments and theoretical modeling can help our understanding of the mechanics, dynamics and evolution of these phenomena in the corona and interplanetary space. |
