M. Feroci, K. Hurley, R. Duncan +1
The giant flare of 1998 August 27 from SGR 1900+14 was extraordinary in many ways: it was the most intense flux of gamma rays ever detected from a source outside our solar system;…
The Effects of Rotation on the Evolution of Rising Omega-loops in a Stratified Model Convection Zone
W. P. Abbett, G. H. Fisher, Y. Fan
We present three-dimensional MHD simulations of buoyant magnetic flux tubes that rise through a stratified model convection zone in the presence of solar rotation. The equations of…
