Homologous Coronal Mass Ejections Caused by Recurring Formation and Disruption of Current Sheet within a Sheared Magnetic Arcade
Xinkai Bian, Chaowei Jiang, Xueshang Feng +2
The Sun often produces coronal mass ejections with similar structure repeatedly from the same source region, and how these homologous eruptions are initiated remains an open questi…
Reconstruction of a Large-scale Pre-flare Coronal Current Sheet Associated with an Homologous X-shaped Flare
Chaowei Jiang, Xiaoli Yan, Xueshang Feng +4
As a fundamental magnetic structure in the solar corona, electric current sheets (CSs) can form either prior to or during solar flare, and they are essential for magnetic energy di…
A Two-Step Magnetic Reconnection in a Confined X-class Flare in Solar Active Region 12673
Peng Zou, Chaowei Jiang, Xueshang Feng +3
Solar flares are often associated with coronal eruptions, but there are confined ones without eruption, even for some X-class flares. How such large flares occurred and why they ar…
A fundamental mechanism of solar eruption initiation
Chaowei Jiang, Xueshang Feng, Rui Liu +8
Solar eruptions are spectacular magnetic explosions in the Sun's corona, and how they are initiated remains unclear. Prevailing theories often rely on special magnetic topologies t…
A Statistical Study of Solar Filament Eruptions That Forms High-Speed Coronal Mass Ejections
Peng Zou, Chaowei Jiang, Fengsi Wei +2
Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) play a decisive role in driving space weather, especially, the fast ones (e.g., with speeds above ~km~s). Understanding the trigger mechan…
Magnetic Reconnection as the Key Mechanism in Sunspot Rotation Leading to Solar Eruption
Chaowei Jiang, Xueshang Feng, Xinkai Bian +8
The rotation of sunspots around their umbral center has long been considered as an important process in leading to solar eruptions, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. A…
