Instability

• Why can some solar features stay long time like prominences and coronal loops, while some produce quick events such as flares? This is the problem of instability.
• Basic Methods– Linearization method
Consider one dimension potential energy waveforce :

7. Radiatively driven thermal instabilityIf thermal conduction were in effective, thermal instabilities would occur in the corona and upper atmosphere, due to the radiative loss term in energy equation.
