Eruption of magnetic flux ropes during flux emergence
V. Archontis, T. Torok
Aims: We investigate the formation of flux ropes in a flux emergence region and their rise into the outer atmosphere of the Sun. Methods: We perform 3D numerical experiments solvin…
Modeling Jets in the Corona and Solar Wind
T. Torok, R. Lionello, V. S. Titov +4
Coronal jets are transient, collimated eruptions that occur in regions of predominantly open magnetic field in the solar corona. Our understanding of these events has greatly evolv…
A model for magnetically coupled sympathetic eruptions
T. Torok, O. Panasenco, V. S. Titov +5
Sympathetic eruptions on the Sun have been observed for several decades, but the mechanisms by which one eruption can trigger another one remain poorly understood. We present a 3D…
Homologous Flares and Magnetic Field Topology in Active Region NOAA 10501 on 20 November 2003
R. Chandra, B. Schmieder, C. H. Mandrini +4
We present and interpret observations of two morphologically homologous flares that occurred in active region (AR) NOAA 10501 on 20 November 2003. Both flares displayed four homolo…
Coronal magnetic reconnection driven by CME expansion -- the 2011 June 7 event
L. van Driel-Gesztelyi, D. Baker, T. Torok +10
Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) erupt and expand in a magnetically structured solar corona. Various indirect observational pieces of evidence have shown that the magnetic field of CM…
