Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Solar radio emission provides an important window to diagnose the physical conditions, and a unique tool to measure the magnetic field in the solar atmosphere, both in the quiet sun and in eruptive phenomena. With the improvement of spatial, spectral and temporal resolution, various radio fine structures have been discovered, which correspond to basic plasma physical processes of the dynamic atmosphere and solar eruptions. Observing and studying these solar radio fine structures is an important way to understand the mechanisms of coronal heating and solar eruptions.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Solar radio bursts
- Fine structure
- Physical processes
- Emission mechanisms
- Models

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Universe is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
