An observational revisit of band-split solar type-II radio bursts

Guohui Du, Xiangliang Kong, Yao Chen +3

Band split of solar type II radio bursts, discovered several decades ago, is a fascinating phenomenon with the type-II lanes exhibiting two almost-parallel sub-bands with similar m…

Toward more realistic analytic models of the heliotail: Incorporating magnetic flattening via distortion flows

Jens Kleimann, Christian Röken, Horst Fichtner +1

Both physical arguments and simulations of the global heliosphere indicate that the tailward heliopause is flattened considerably in the direction perpendicular to both the incomin…

A Comparison Study of a Solar Active-Region Eruptive Filament and a Neighboring Non-Eruptive Filament

Chaowei Jiang, S. T. Wu, Xueshang Feng +1

Solar active region (AR) 11283 is a very magnetically complex region and it has produced many eruptions. However, there exists a non-eruptive filament in the plage region just next…

Destabilization of a Solar Prominence/Filament Field System by a Series of Eight Homologous Eruptive Flares

Navdeep K. Panesar, Alphonse C. Sterling, Davina E. Innes +1

Homologous flares are flares that occur repetitively in the same active region, with similar structure and morphology. A series of at least eight homologous flares occurred in acti…

Near-Sun Speed of CMEs and the Magnetic Non-potentiality of their Source Active Regions

Sanjiv K. Tiwari, David A. Falconer, Ronald L. Moore +3

We show that the speed of the fastest coronal mass ejections (CMEs) that an active region (AR) can produce can be predicted from a vector magnetogram of the AR. This is shown by lo…

Evidence of the Solar EUV hot channel as a magnetic flux rope from remote-sensing and in-situ observations

Hongqiang Song, Yao Chen, Jie Zhang +5

Hot channels (HCs), high temperature erupting structures in the lower corona of the Sun, have been proposed as a proxy of magnetic flux ropes (MFRs) since their initial discovery.…

Nonthermally Dominated Electron Acceleration during Magnetic Reconnection in a Low-beta Plasma

Xiaocan Li, Fan Guo, Hui Li +1

By means of fully kinetic simulations, we investigate electron acceleration during magnetic reconnection in a nonrelativistic proton--electron plasma with conditions similar to sol…

Acceleration phases of a solar filament during its eruption

Hongqiang Song, Yao Chen, Jie Zhang +3

Filament eruptions often lead to coronal mass ejections (CMEs), which can affect critical technological systems in space and on the ground when they interact with the geo-magnetosp…

Magnetic Untwisting in Solar Jets that Go into the Outer Corona in Polar Coronal Holes

Ronald L. Moore, Alphonse C. Sterling, David A. Falconer

We study 14 large solar jets observed in polar coronal holes. In EUV movies from SDO/AIA, each jet appears similar to most X-ray jets and EUV jets that erupt in coronal holes, but…

Magnetic field-line lengths inside interplanetary magnetic flux ropes

Qiang Hu, Jiong Qiu, Sam Krucker

We report on the detailed and systematic study of field-line twist and length distributions within magnetic flux ropes embedded in Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejections (ICMEs). Th…

First Taste of Hot Channel in Interplanetary Space

Hongqiang Song, Jie Zhang, Yao Chen +3

Hot channel (HC) is a high temperature (10 MK) structure in the inner corona revealed first by Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on board \textit{Solar Dynamics Observatory}…
