Open Superior Efficient Solar Atmosphere Model Extension

The goal is to develop a time evolving model for the entire solar atmosphere, including the chromosphere and transition region, based on a multi-fluid description. At present, models are steady, rely on a single-fluid description and include only the corona due to computational challenges. We plan to use time-evolving ion-neutral and ion-neutral-electron models. The multi-fluid approach will enable us to describe the intricate physics in the partially ionized chromosphere and quantize the transfer of momentum and energy between the atmospheric layers. The questions where the solar wind originates and solar flares and coronal mass ejections are driven have both fundamental scientific…
