Energy Bounds from Relative Magnetic Helicity in Spherical Shells
Anthony R. Yeates, Gunnar Hornig
Relative magnetic helicity is commonly used in solar physics to avoid the well known gauge ambiguity of standard magnetic helicity in magnetically open domains. But its physical in…
Evolution, structure and topology of self-generated turbulent reconnection layers
Raheem Beg, Alexander J. B. Russell, Gunnar Hornig
We present a 3D MHD simulation of two merging flux ropes exhibiting self-generated and self-sustaining turbulent reconnection (SGTR) that is fully 3D and fast. The exploration of S…
On self and mutual winding helicity
Simon Candelaresi, Gunnar Hornig, David MacTaggart +1
The topological underpinning of magnetic fields connected to a planar boundary is naturally described by field line winding. This observation leads to the definition of winding hel…
Evolution of Field Line Helicity in Magnetic Relaxation
A. R. Yeates, A. J. B. Russell, G. Hornig
Plasma relaxation in the presence of an initially braided magnetic field can lead to self-organization into relaxed states that retain non-trivial magnetic structure. These relaxed…
Dependence of Coronal Loop Heating on the Characteristics of Slow Photospheric Motions
M. L. Ritchie, A. L. Wilmot-Smith, G. Hornig
The Parker hypothesis (Parker (1972)) assumes that heating of coronal loops occurs due to reconnection, induced when photospheric motions braid field lines to the point of current…
Evolution of field line helicity during magnetic reconnection
Alexander J. B. Russell, Anthony R. Yeates, Gunnar Hornig +1
We investigate the evolution of field line helicity for magnetic fields that connect two boundaries without null points, with emphasis on localized finite-B magnetic reconnection.…
