Hadamard fractional calculus is one of the most important fractional calculus theories. Compared with a single Hadamard fractional order equation, Hadamard fractional differential equations have a more complex structure and a wide range of applications. It is difficult and challenging to study the dynamic behavior of Hadamard fractional differential equations. This manuscript mainly deals with the boundary value problem (BVP) of a nonlinear coupled Hadamard fractional system involving fractional derivative impulses. By applying nonlinear alternative of Leray-Schauder, we find some new conditions for the existence of solutions to this nonlinear coupled Hadamard fractional system. Our findings reveal that the impulsive function and its impulsive point have a great influence on the existence of the solution. As an application, we discuss an interesting example to verify the correctness and validity of our results.
