•
The emerging delta AR associates with the current helicity from the sub-atmosphere and redistribution in the upper atmosphere. The ratio of magnetic shear and current helicity provides information on the nonpotentiality of solar flare-producing regions (Zhang, et al., MNRAS, 2001; 2002; ApJL, 2001)
•
The solution of a local parameter λ is justified and applied for a closed-form non-constant-α force-free field with finite energy content in free space around the Sun (Yan et al., ApJL , 2001; Space Sci. Rew.,
2003; Li et al., MNRAS, 2004)

•
The 3D structure and evolution of vector magnetic fields and line-of-sight velocities is obtained by Stokes profiles
(Qu et al., Solar Phys., 2001; IAU Symp 219, 2003)
•
The mapping of circular polarization in a filament may provide a supplementary diagnosis of the filament magnetic field, in addition to the mapping of linear polarization via the Hanle effect (Wang et al., Solar Phys.,
2003)
•
The 2-D coronal magnetic field is calculated from spectral index, brightness temperature, turnover frequency and frequency in a microwave burst source
(Huang, New Astronomy, 2001; 2002)
CAWSES meeting, Sept. 2004

•
The initial disturbance in the filament and the initial brightening around the filament took place at the cancellation sites. The repeated flare-CME activities are triggered by the continuous emergence of moving magnetic features (Zhang et al., ApJ, 2001a,b; 2002; Song et al., Solar Phys., 2003)
•
High-cadence and high-resolution time sequences of far Halpha off-band images provide a unique tool to study the evolution of the fine structure of flare kernels (Ji et al., ApJ,
2003, 2004)
•
The radio signature of magnetic reconnection is obtained, such as the bi-directional type III drift pairs and type II-like, and the twisted magnetic ropes (Huang et al., New Astronomy,
2003; Solar Physics, 2003; JGR, 2004)
CAWSES meeting, Sept. 2004

•
When the reconnection-favored emerging flux appears either within or on the outer edge of the filament channel, the flux rope would lose its equilibrium. A piston-driven shock is formed along the envelope of the expanding CME. The legs of the shock may produce Moreton waves. A slower moving wavelike structure, with an enhanced plasma region ahead, corresponds to observed EIT waves (Chen et al., EP&S, 2001;
AdSpR, 2002; ApJ, 2002).
•
Solar observations show that magnetic reconnection can occur in the weakly ionized lower atmosphere. 2 and 3-D solutions of steady state magnetic reconnection derived in incompressible, partially ionized plasmas (Ji et al., Solar
Physics, 2001; ApJ, 2001a,b).

•
The hydrogen line profiles are good tools for diagnosing the total flux of the particle beam. The emissions in the wings of
H-alpha could exhibit fast fluctuations, related to small-scale injection of high-energy electrons (Fang et al., IAU Symp219,
2003; Ding et al., ApJ, 2001; 2002; Liu et al., ApJL, 2001).
•
54 BATSE/CGRO hard X-ray events are fitted by power-law electrons with a lower energy cutoff from 45 to 97 keV, changed from smaller before the peak flux, to larger at the peak, and then back to smaller after the peak (Gan et al., ApJ,
2001; Solar Phys, 2002; CJAA, 2002)
CAWSES meeting, Sept. 2004

•
Three very hard photon spectra of Yohkoh/HXT events may result from superposition of a strong Compton backscattering component. The joint effects of Compton backscattering and low-energy cutoff are calculated. The low cutoff energy are estimated in two solar microwave and hard X-ray bursts (Zhang&Huang, ApJL, 2003; Solar
Phys, 2004; Huang et al., New Astron, 2004).
•
A dissipative nonlinear inertial Alfvén wave is proposed as the formation of the strong electric spikes in the auroral ionosphere and magnetosphere as well as the field_aligned electron acceleration. The effective acceleration region for auroral electrons with energies of the order of keV (Wu et al., Physical Review E, 2003; JGR, 2004)
CAWSES meeting, Sept. 2004

•
In a low-β plasma such as coronal holes, kinetic dissipation of Alfvén waves due to the wave-particle resonant interaction can directly lead to electron heating. In the main body of the dense plume, which is embedded in a nearly uniformly magnetized coronal hole, the dissipation of the wave energy can provide an additional local electron heating that is enough to balance the extra radiative loss of the dense bright plume. (Wu et al., ApJ 2003)

•
Under solar interior conditions, the equation of state of the thermodynamic functions of partly ionized and weakly coupled plasmas includes a detailed account of electron degeneracy, Coulomb coupling and pressure ionization (Bi et al., A&A, 2000a,b)
•
The turbulent viscosity exerts a non-negligible influence on the solar p-mode oscillations (Bi et al., A&A, 2000). For the radial modes we find that the Reynolds stress produces signification modifications in structure and p-mode spectrum
(Bi et al., ApSS, 2003). The mode frequency is sensitive to the effect of magnetic fields, it can be used as a diagnostic tool for the presence of turbulent magnetic fields in the convection zone (Bi et al., A&A, 2000)

•
A series of predictions for solar cycle are proposed , such as cycle 23 also might be of shorter length, ending in late 2006 or early 2007 (Li et al., A&A, 2002); the conventional start of cycle 24 occurs in 2007.2 (Li, JGR, 2002); the activity of the solar active prominences occurs earlier at higher latitudes leads by 4 years that at low latitudes (Li et al., Solar Physics,
2002); the polar faculae cycle is in complete anti-phase with the sunspot cycle, and highly correlated with the sunspot cycle with a time shift of 51months into the following sunspot cycle, the solar activity of a cycle usually has the same beginning and end times, but different maximum amplitudes at different maximum times in hemispheres (Li et al., PASJ, 2002a,b; ApJ, 2001; New Astronomy 2003; Solar
Physics, 2003)

•
Some important physical parameters, such as vertical currents, current helicity, magnetic separatrix, position of singular points are related to pre-status of solar events.
Some important criteria are used to be indicator for solar activity forecast (Wang et al., 34th COSPAR Scientific
Assembly, 2002)
•
Area, magnetic class, net magnetic flux, Carrington longitude and tilt angle of AR may serve to predict the AR producing hazarded space weather (Tian et al., Solar Phys,
2002; 2003; A&A, 2003a,b)
