TL;DR: The term "ultraviolet (UV) burst" was introduced by as discussed by the authors to describe small, intense, transient brightenings in ultraviolet images of solar active regions, which are associated with small-scale magnetic reconnection events occurring in the low atmosphere, at photospheric and/or chromospheric heights.

Ellerman bombs—evidence for magnetic reconnection in the lower solar atmosphere
Chris J. Nelson,Chris J. Nelson,Sergiy Shelyag,Mihalis Mathioudakis,John Gerard Doyle,Maria S. Madjarska,Han Uitenbroek,Robert Erdélyi +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors combine high-resolution, high-cadence observations from the Interferometric BIdimensional Spectrometer and Rapid Oscillations in the Solar Atmosphere instruments at the Dunn Solar Telescope, National Solar Observatory, New Mexico, with co-aligned Solar Dynamics Observatory Atmospheric Imaging Assembly and Hinode Solar Optical Telescope (SOT) data to observe small-scale events situated within an active region.

Small-scale structuring of ellerman bombs at the solar limb
Chris J. Nelson,Chris J. Nelson,Eamon Scullion,Eamon Scullion,John Gerard Doyle,N. Freij,Robert Erdélyi +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors make use of high-resolution, high-cadence observations of an Active Region at the solar limb, collected by the CRisp Imaging SpectroPolarimeter (CRISP) instrument, to identify EBs and infer their physical properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Small-Scale Structuring Of Ellerman Bombs at Solar Limb
TL;DR: In this article, the authors make use of high-resolution, high-cadence observations of an AR at the solar limb, collected by the CRISP instrument, to identify EBs and infer their physical properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetic Flux Cancellation in Ellerman Bombs

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used Hα imaging spectroscopy along with Fe i 6302.5 spectropolarimetry from the Swedish 1 m Solar Telescope (SST), combined with data from the Solar Dynamic Observatory, to study EBs and the evolution of the local magnetic fields at EB locations.
