The journal Solar Physics publishes one or two Topical Issues (TIs) per year dedicated to a focused topic, frequently with a small number of survey articles introducing regular unsolicited articles, all of which benefit from appearing together. Not infrequently, these stem from a monothematic conference or conferences, but all articles submitted for consideration for a TI are handled and refereed in the same way as regular research articles, and submissions not associated with the conference are solicited. Recent TIs include The Sun 360 (November 2012), and the Flux Emergence in the Hinode Era (May 2012)

To aid in our planning, we solicit statements of interest from potential Guest Editors of Topical Issues by 1 February 2014.
