Joule heating and anomalous resistivity in the solar corona
Recent radioastronomical observations of Faraday rotation in the solar corona can be interpreted as evidence for coronal currents, with values as large as 2.5&times;10<sup>9</sup> Amperes (Spangler, 2007). These estimates of currents are used to develop a model fo...
