An Ab Initio Approach to the Solar Coronal Heating Problem (2004, background): “Higher up in the corona it is typically gas undergoing catastrophic cooling (Schrijver 2001).”
Effect of longitudinal magnetic and density inhomogeneity on transversal coronal loop oscillations (2008, background): “To further complicate matters the plasma of “static” coronal loops has also exhibited significant dynamic behaviour such as flows (Brekke et al. 2001; Winebarger et al. 2001, 2002) and cooling events (Schrijver 2001; Winebarger et al. 2003).”
Dynamics of solar coronal loops I. Condensation in cool loops and its effect on transition region lines (2003, background): “Recent TRACE observations of Schrijver (2001) indeed show frequent “catastrophic cooling” and evacuation of coronal loops over active regions and enhanced emission of C IV, developing initially near the loop top, followed by quick draining.”
Physics of Solar Prominences: II—Magnetic Structure and Dynamics (2010, background): “Prominence plasma frequently appears in situ high in the hot corona (McMath and Pettit, 1938; Schrijver, 2001), but also is observed flowing up from the chromosphere (Chae et al., 2000; Liu et al., 2005; Schwartz et al., 2006).”
The Solar Orbiter mission (2020, background): “…proposed as a marker for coronal heating mechanisms by Antolin et al. (2010): Near active regions, small ‘blobs’ of cool and dense plasma in the much hotter surrounding corona are often seen to fall towards the solar surface along coronal loops (Leroy 1972; Schrijver 2001; de Groof et al. 2005).”
