Near infrared maps of the planetary nebula IC 418 taken at 5 arc sec spatial resolution are presented. These show an extremely compact source structure at 1.65...
Small Magnetic Loops Connecting the Quiet Surface and the Hot Outer Atmosphere of the Sun
Sunspots are the most spectacular manifestation of solar magnetism, yet 99% of the solar surface remains "quiet" at any time of the solar cycle. The quiet sun...
Small-Scale Behavior of the Physical Conditions and the Abundance Discrepancy in the Orion Nebula
We present the results of long-slit spectroscopy, in several positions, of the Orion Nebula. Our goal is to study the spatial distributions of a large number of...
Small-scale clustering of nano-dust grains in supersonic turbulence
We investigate the clustering and dynamics of nano-sized particles (nano dust) in high-resolution (1024 3) simulations of compressible isothermal hydrodynamic...
Small-Scale Horizontal Magnetic Fields in the Solar Photosphere
We present recent observations of quiet regions near the center of the solar disk using the Advanced Stokes Polarimeter. These observations reveal a component...
Small-scale magnetic flux emergence in a sunspot light bridge
Context. Light bridges are convective intrusions in sunspots that often show enhanced chromospheric activity. Aims: We seek to determine the nature of flux...
Small-scale Magnetic Flux Emergence in the Quiet Sun
Small bipolar magnetic features are observed to appear in the interior of individual granules in the quiet Sun, signaling the emergence of tiny magnetic loops...
Small-scale magnetic flux emergence preceding a chain of energetic solar atmospheric events
Context. Advancements in instrumentation have revealed a multitude of small-scale extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) events in the solar atmosphere and considerable...
Small-spatial-scale variations of nebular properties and the abundance discrepancy in three Galactic HII regions
We present the results of long-slit spectroscopy in several slit positions that cover different morphological structures of the central parts of three bright...
