Modelling the radiative signatures of turbulent heating in coronal loops

S. Parenti

In this work we study the statistical properties of a coronal loop subject to turbulent heating. The results obtained here have been obtained with a model which simulates the heating and cooling of a multi-strand loop and its radiative emission. We investigate the effects of the loop sub-structure on the statistical properties of the total thermal energy and radiative emission. Our results are then used to discuss the prospects and limitations of such diagnostic methods when these quantities are derived from observations.
