Magnetic Reconnection Governs the Entire Lifecycle of Solar Eruptive Magnetic Flux Rope

Xinkai Bian, Chaowei Jiang, Qingjun Liu +3

While magnetic flux ropes (MFRs) are widely accepted to exist prior to many solar eruptions, the physical mechanism responsible for triggering and subsequently driving their erupti…

An investigation of magnetic energy and helicity thresholds at the onset of solar eruptions based on numerical simulations

Xinkai Bian, Chaowei Jiang, Qingjun Liu +5

Identifying universal, topology-independent thresholds in the coronal magnetic fields at onset of solar eruptions is crucial for physics-based prediction of eruptions. To this end,…
