Scientific paper

The first ionization potential (FIP) effect causes a fractionation, i.e. a change of the relative abundances, of elements with a low FIP in the corona and solar wind as compared with the SOLAR PHOTOSPHERE. These elements (specifically Mg, Si and Fe) are becoming enriched somewhere in the solar atmosphere by an average factor of 2-5 relative to the high-FIP elements (specifically oxygen). The proc...
