The Effects of Energy Conservation in Simulating Solar Eruptions

Xianyu Liu, Spiro K. Antiochos, Nishtha Sachdeva +6

Strict energy conservation is, perhaps, the most basic principle in all physics, but has proven to be difficult to satisfy in numerical simulations of solar eruptions. The Alfvén W…

Effects of the Background Magnetic Field on Flux Rope Eruptions

Xianyu Liu, Spiro K. Antiochos, Igor V. Sokolov +5

Solar eruptive events are generally believed to involve magnetic flux ropes (MFR), formed either in the pre-eruptive phase of the event or during the eruption itself. These MFR eru…
