... Ignacio Ugarte Urra's PhD thesis topic is the investigation of coronal bright points. In his first paper (in collaboration with Gerry Doyle and Maria Madjarska) he investigated the formation, evolution and decay of a coronal bright point via a spectroscopic analysis of its transition region counterpart and the evolution of the underlying magnetic bipole during 3 days of almost continuous observations. ... In general the bright point has a radiance 4 times higher than that of the network. ...
