Turbulence from mixed-polarity magnetic carpet fields supplies enough dissipated energy to heat the solar chromosphere and lower corona, with gradual heating of spicules by entrained turbulence.
This review summarizes the basic principles of electron transport in inhomogeneous and tangled magnetic fields through gyro-centre trajectories, kinetic instabilities, trapping, and diffusion processes.
