Scientific paper

We present an analysis of light-curves obtained in the O IV and Ne VIII transition region and low corona lines, that were simultaneously recorded in a quiet Sun region by SUMER/SOHO. By using the flatness spectrum of the observed light-curves we searched for intermittency signatures. It was found that a significant proportion of points in the observed area exhibit clear indications of intermittency, irrespectively of their intrinsic intensity. Our findings give favor to an impulsively heated transition region and corona via intermittent-type MHD turbulence.
