Scientific paper

The solar corona, which has a four fold structure of coronal loops, coronal holes, X-ray bright points, and prominences, is introduced. Recent developments in the theory for heating the corona, including a self consistent magnetohydrodynamic turbulence mechanism and new ways of creating current sheets by shearing force free fields or collapsing X-points, are reviewed. Prominences may be formed in huge flux tubes in response to flux cancellations at the photosphere, and flares may result from a magnetic catastrophe.
