Analyses of Flight Time During Solar Proton Events and Solar Flares

X. H. Xu, Y. Wang, F. S. Wei +17

Analyzing the effects of space weather on aviation is a new and developing topic. It has been commonly accepted that the flight time of the polar flights may increase during solar…

Characteristics of Flight Delays during Solar Flares

X. H. Xu, Y. Wang, F. S. Wei +15

Solar flare is one of the severest solar activities on the sun, and it has many important impacts on the near-earth space. It has been found that flight arrival delays will increas…

The Effects of Space Weather on Flight Delays

Y. Wang, X. H. Xu, F. S. Wei +15

Although the sun is really far away from us, some solar activities could still influence the performance and reliability of space-borne and ground-based technological systems on Ea…

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…

Is Solar Minimum 24/25 Another Unusual One?

Huichao Li, Xueshang Feng, Fengsi Wei

The solar minimum 23/24 is considered to be unusual because it exhibits features that differ notably from those commonly seen in pervious minima. In this letter, we analyze the sol…

Continuous Null-Point Magnetic Reconnection Builds Up a Torus Unstable Magnetic Flux Rope Triggering the X9.3 Flare in Solar Active Region~12673

Peng Zou, Chaowei Jiang, Fengsi Wei +3

Two X-class solar flares occurred on 2017 September 6 from active region NOAA 12673: the first one is a confined X2.2 flare, and it is followed only hours later by the sec…

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…

Can Injection Model Replenish the Filaments in Weak Magnetic Environment?

Peng Zou, Chaowei Jiang, Fengsi Wei +1

We observed an H surge occurred in the active region NOAA 12401 on 2015 August 17, and discuss its trigger mechanism, kinematic and thermal properties. It is suggested that this…

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…

Magnetohydrodynamic Simulation of the X9.3 Flare on 2017 September 6: Evolving Magnetic Topology

Chaowei Jiang, Peng Zou, Xueshang Feng +7

Three-dimensional magnetic topology is crucial to understanding the explosive release of magnetic energy in the corona during solar flares. Much attention has been given to the pre…

Variations of solar electron and proton flux in magnetic cloud boundary layers and comparisons with those across the shocks and in the reconnection exhausts

Y. Wang, F. S. Wei, X. S. Feng +4

The Magnetic cloud boundary layer (BL) is a dynamic region formed by the interaction of the magnetic cloud (MC) and the ambient solar wind. In the present study, we comparatively i…
