Abstract:
From the statistical treatment of magnetohydrodynamically turbulent plasma, a steady-state density, temperature and magnetic field structure is derived for a coronal loop emitting in UV and EUV range. Spatial variation of line flux is presented for the lines C II, C III, O IV, O VI, Ne VII, and Mg X. It is found that the hotter lines which are emitted near the surface of the loop have larger spatial extents compared to the lines originating in the cool core of the loop, in agreement with the observations.
