A study of a macro-spicule and a transition region explosive event in a solar coronal hole Original Research Article

Spicules and the higher macro-spicules (jet-like structures seen at the solar limb) are believed to be the dominant mechanism for mass ejection in the higher solar atmosphere outside active regions. But what is the connection between them and other small-scale structures in the Sun’s atmosphere, like for example transition region explosive events, is not known yet.
