Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Extreme ultraviolet (EUV) waves are impressive coronal propagating disturbances that are best seen as intensity enhancements in EUV emission. EUV waves are also called “EIT waves”, “coronal bright fronts”, and “large-scale coronal propagating fronts”. EUV waves can provide potential diagnostics on coronal magnetic field strengths and coronal plasma parameters. Since the discovery of the first case, the EUV wave has been strongly debated in relation to the physical nature of a true wave or a pseudo wave. On the other hand, it is widely recognized that EUV waves are always associated with a variety of energetic eruptions, such as CMEs, flares, and filament eruptions. Benefiting from high resolution observations from the Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO) and the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), an increasing number of EUV waves are being easily captured, including many small-scale cases that are associated with weak eruptions and present many new observational characteristics.

The proposed issue is scheduled for gathering new results of EUV waves in solar corona and aims to pave the way for better understanding the physical nature and driving mechanisms of solar EUV waves.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Galaxies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

We present here the kinematics of the EUV wave associated with a GOES M1.0-class solar flare, which originates in NOAA AR 12740. The event is thoroughly observed with Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) onboard Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) with high spatio-temporal resolutions. This event displays many features of EUV waves, which are very decisive for the understanding of the nature of EUV waves. These features include: a fast-mode wave, a pseudo wave, a slow-mode wave and stationary fronts, probably due to mode conversion. One fast-mode wave also propagates towards the coronal hole situated close to the north pole and the wave speed does not change when it encounters the coronal hole. We intend to provide self-consistent interpretations for all these different features. Full article
