	Corona - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Sun's corona is much hotter (by a factor of nearly 200) than the visible surface of the Sun: the photosphere's average temperature is 5800 kelvins compared to the corona's one to three million kelvins.
		The corona is separated from the photosphere by the relatively shallow chromosphere.
		The first direct observation of waves propagating into and through the solar corona was made in 1997 with the SOHO space-borne solar observatory, the first platform capable of observing the Sun in the extreme ultraviolet for long periods of time with stable photometry.

	Corona - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The corona is the luminous "atmosphere" of the Sun extending millions of kilometres into space, most easily seen during a total solar eclipse, but also observable in a Coronagraph.
		An interesting feature of the corona is the fact that it is much hotter than the visible "surface" of the Sun: the photosphere is approximately 6000°C compared to the corona at over one million °C. The corona is much less dense than the photosphere, however, and so produces less light.
		During the Sun's active periods, the corona is evenly distributed over the equatorial and polar regions, though it is most prominent in areas with sunspot activity.

	Sun - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		The heliosphere, which may be considered the tenuous outer atmosphere of the Sun, extends outward past the orbit of Pluto to the heliopause, where it forms a sharp shock front boundary with the interstellar medium.
		The optical surface of the Sun (the photosphere) is known to have a temperature of approximately 6,000 K.
		Above it lies the solar corona at a temperature of 1,000,000 K. The high temperature of the corona shows that it is heated by something other than the photosphere.

		An interesting feature of the corona is the fact that it is much hotter (by a factor of nearly 200) than the visible "surface" of the Sun: the photosphere's average temperature is 5800 kelvins compared to the corona's one to three million kelvins.
		The coronal heating problem is the title of a problem in astronomy and astrophysics as to why the temperature of the Sun's corona is millions of kelvins higher than that of the surface.
		Measurements of the temperature of different ions in the solar wind with the UVCS instrument aboard SOHO give strong indirect evidence that there are waves at frequencies as high as 200 Hz, well into the range of human hearing, but they cannot (yet) be detected or measured directly.

	Corona Opera
		Corona Borealis was sometimes considered to represent a crown that was given by Dionysus to Ariadne, the daughter of Minos of Crete.
		Corona was founded at the height of the Southern California citrus boom in 1896, advantageously situated at the upper end of the Santa Ana River Canyon, the only significant pass through the Santa Ana Mountains.
		In recent years, Corona has changed from a working-class bedroom community for Orange County and the larger cities of the Inland Empire to a full-fledged edge city in its own right, with industrial parks opening near Norco and luxury housing developments rising in the foothills of the Santa Anas.

		The corona is the extended outer atmosphere of the Sun, which is much larger in volume than the Sun itself.
		The high temperature of the corona suggests that it is heated by something other than the photosphere.
		It is thought that the energy necessary to heat the corona is provided by turbulent motion in the convection zone below the photosphere.

		The corona is separated from the photosphere by therelatively shallow chromosphere.
		The exact mechanism by which the corona isheated is still the subject of some debate, but likely possibilities include induction by the Sun's magnetic field and sonic pressure wavesfrom below (the latter being less probable now that coronae are known to be present in early-type stars).

		The transition region is not easily visible from the surface of Earth, but is readily visible from space in the far ultraviolet portion of the spectrum.
		Above it lies the solar corona with a temperature of 1,000,000 K. The high temperature of the corona shows that it is heated by something other than the photosphere.
		The other is magnetic heating, in which magnetic energy is continuously built up by photospheric motion and released through magnetic reconnection in the form of large solar flares and myriad similar but smaller events.

		The NPFC disambiguation is otherwise assumption-free, with the quality of the results depending on the quality of the measurements.
		The technique is fast, effective, and physically sound, so it may be instrumental in a routine, real-time, disambiguation of future space-borne solar vector magnetograms.
		This type of behaviour might physically motivate statistical theories to describe the long-term evolution of a turbulent corona, provided that such an environment is a driven dissipative nonlinear dynamical system.
