Helicity-conserving relaxation in unstable and merging magnetic flux ropes
Philippa Browning, Mykola Gordovskyy, Alan Hood
Twisted magnetic flux ropes are reservoirs of free magnetic energy. In a highly-conducting plasma such as the solar corona, energy release through multiple magnetic reconnections c…
Coronal energy release by MHD avalanches. Effects on a structured, active region, multi-threaded coronal loop
G. Cozzo, J. Reid, P. Pagano +2
A possible key element for large-scale energy release in the solar corona is an MHD kink instability in a single twisted magnetic flux tube. An initial helical current sheet fragme…
Ambipolar diffusion: Self-similar solutions and MHD code testing. Cylindrical symmetry
F. Moreno-Insertis, D. Nóbrega-Siverio, E. R. Priest +1
Ambipolar diffusion is a process occurring in partially ionised astrophysical systems that imparts a complicated mathematical and physical nature to Ohm's law. The numerical codes…
Can Multi-Threaded Flux Tubes in Coronal Arcades Support a Magnetohydrodynamic Avalanche?
James Threlfall, Jack Reid, Alan Hood
Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) instabilities allow energy to be released from stressed magnetic fields, commonly modelled in cylindrical flux tubes linking parallel planes, but, more re…
A fast multi-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic formulation of the transition region adaptive conduction (TRAC) method
C. D. Johnston, A. W. Hood, I. De Moortel +2
We have demonstrated that the Transition Region Adaptive Conduction (TRAC) method permits fast and accurate numerical solutions of the field-aligned hydrodynamic equations, success…
Line-tied boundary conditions can cause resonant absorption models to generate unphysically large boundary layers
A. P. K. Prokopyszyn, A. N. Wright, A. W. Hood
This paper uses linear magnetohydrodynamics to model resonant absorption in coronal plasma with a Cartesian coordinate system. We impose line-tied boundary conditions and tilt the…
