A Tale of Two Spicules: The Impact of Spicules on the Magnetic Chromosphere (2007, background): “This complicated picture has contributed significantly to the multitude of theoretical models and general confusion in the past regarding the cause of spicules (see, e.g. Sterling, 2000).”
ON-DISK COUNTERPARTS OF TYPE II SPICULES IN THE Ca ii 854.2 nm AND Hα LINES (2009, background): “Classically, spicules have been reported to show velocities of order 20–30 km s−1, lifetimes of order 5-10 minutes and heights up to 5,000–10,000 km above the photosphere (see Beckers (1968) and Sterling (2000) for reviews on the older literature on spicules).”
Solar Fine-Scale Structures. I. Spicules and Other Small-Scale, Jet-Like Events at the Chromospheric Level: Observations and Physical Parameters (2012, methodology): “Beckers (1968, 1972) give comprehensive reviews of early work on mottles and spicules, while a more recent review on the modelling of these structures is given by Sterling (2000).”
How to Channel Photospheric Oscillations into the Corona (2005, background): “Spicules have a range of diameters of 200–800 km (Sterling 2000), well below the 2 # 2 resolution of theTRACE images considered here, which were rebinned to improve the signal-to-noise ratio (De Moortel et al. 2002b).”
The Solar Optical Telescope for the Hinode Mission: An Overview (2007, background): “Coordinated SOT and EIS observations studying the thermal evolution of chromospheric ejections are important (Sterling, 2000; De Pontieu, 2004).”
Dynamic Fibrils Are Driven by Magnetoacoustic Shocks (2006, background): “Until recently, their small size and short lifetimes have made detailed analysis difficult (Beckers 1968; Suematsu et al. 1995), which has led to a multitude of poorly constrained theories of their formation (Sterling 2000).”
Oscillations and Waves in Solar Spicules (2009, background): “We are not concerned about the models of spicule generation mechanisms; the interested reader may find these latter topics in the recent review by Sterling (2000) or in De Pontieu and Erdélyi (2006).”
