    New Insights into White-Light Flare Emission from Radiative-Hydrodynamic Modeling of a Chromospheric Condensation

    The heating mechanism at high densities during M-dwarf flares is poorly understood. Spectra of M-dwarf flares in the optical and near-ultraviolet wavelength regimes have revealed three continuum components dur...

    Photon Mean Free Paths, Scattering, and Ever-Increasing Telescope Resolution

    We revisit an old question: what are the effects of observing stratified atmospheres on scales below a photon mean free path λ? The mean free path of photons emerging from the solar photosphere and chromosphere i...
