Multifluid plasma simulations find that the Thermal Farley-Buneman Instability boosts neutral heating by (43±7)% on average, increases charged-species temperatures proportionally to driving field strength, and rotates current density components in the solar chromosphere.
A review summarizing observational properties, dynamics, and heating implications of transition region loops observed primarily with IRIS, distinct from coronal loops.
