contents Coronal heating refers to the physical processes that shape and structure the corona of the Sun and are responsible for its multi-million Kelvin temperatures. These processes are revealed in a number of different observational manifestations and have been studied on theoretical grounds in great detail over the last eight decades. The aim of this Chapter is to give an account of some of those manifestations and to discuss relevant physics that we believe is responsible for them. Coronal heating is closely connected to other magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) processes occurring in the solar plasma and described in this book such as waves, shocks, instabilities, and magnetic reconnection.
