Radiative MHD Studies of Solar Spicules: Driving Mechanisms and the Role of Background Magnetic Field

Jin Li, Lei Ni, Robertus Erdélyi +3

We conduct 2.5D radiative magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations to investigate the driving mechanisms of the solar spicules in coronal holes and how the different background magnet…

Energy and mass transport associated with impulsive spicular flows in solar coronal holes

Lei Ni, Jun Lin, Tanmoy Samanta +3

How the solar atmosphere is heated from a temperature of about \,K in the lower atmosphere to about \,MK in the corona has challenged the astrophysical community…

Coronal Mass Ejections Deflected by Newly Emerging Flux: A Combined Analytic and Numerical Study

Yuhao Chen, Chengcai Shen, Zhixing Mei +8

Newly emerging flux (NEF) has been widely studied as a trigger of solar filament eruptions, but its influence on the subsequent dynamics remains poorly explored. Because NEF typica…

QFP Waves Driven by the Tuning-Fork Effect during Magnetic Reconnecion

Jialiang Hu, Xiaozhou Zhao, Guiping Zhou +8

Through three-dimensional MHD simulations, we have uncovered a kind of fast coronal wave originating from both ends of a current sheet (CS) during a solar eruption. These waves are…

Three dimensional magnetic reconnection mediated with plasmoids and the resulted multi-thermal emissions in the cool atmosphere of the Sun

Guanchong Cheng, Lei Ni, Robert Cameron +3

Flux emergence is ubiquitous in the Sun's lower atmosphere, where the emerging magnetic flux can reconnect with the pre-existing magnetic field. We investigate plasmoid formation a…

The effect of plasma- on the heating mechanisms during magnetic reconnection in partially ionized low solar atmosphere

Abdullah Zafar, Lei Ni, Kaifeng Kang +5

We performed numerical simulations of magnetic reconnection with different strength of magnetic fields from the solar photosphere to the upper chromosphere. The main emphasis is to…

Numerical simulation of oscillatory magnetic reconnection modulated by solar convective motions

Yifu Wang, Lei Ni, Guanchong Cheng +3

Oscillatory magnetic reconnection is a periodic magnetic reconnection process, during which the current sheet's orientation and the magnetic connections change periodically. This p…

Theoretical Studies on the Evolution of Solar Filaments in Response to New Emerging Flux

Yuhao Chen, Jialiang Hu, Guanchong Cheng +4

New emerging flux (NEF) has long been considered a mechanism for solar eruptions, but detailed process remains an open question. In this work, we explore how NEF drives a coronal m…

Evidence for Plasmoid-mediated Magnetic Reconnection during a Small-scale Flare in the Partially Ionized Low Solar Atmosphere

Guanchong Cheng, Lei Ni, Zehao Tang +4

Magnetic reconnection plays a crucial role in the energy release process for different kinds of solar eruptions and activities. The rapid solar eruption requires a fast reconnectio…

A magnetic reconnection model for the hot explosion with both ultraviolet and Hα wing emissions

Guanchong Cheng, Lei Ni, Yajie Chen +1

Ellerman bombs (EBs) with significant H wing emissions and ultraviolet bursts (UV bursts) with strong Si IV emissions are two kinds of small transient brightening events that oc…

Can the Parker Solar Probe Detect a CME-flare Current Sheet?

Yuhao Chen, Zhong Liu, Pengfei Chen +8

A current sheet (CS) is the central structure in the disrupting magnetic configuration during solar eruptions. More than 90\% of the free magnetic energy (the difference between th…

Plausibility of ultraviolet burst generation in the low solar chromosphere

Lei Ni, Guanchong Cheng, Jun Lin

Ultraviolet (UV) bursts and Ellerman bombs (EBs) are small-scale magnetic reconnection events taking place in the highly stratified, low solar atmosphere. It is still not clear whe…

The Ellerman bomb and Ultraviolet burst triggered successively by an emerging magnetic flux rope

Guanchong Cheng, Lei Ni, Yajie Chen +2

Ellerman bombs (EBs) and Ultraviolet (UV) bursts are common brightening phenomena which are usually generated in the low solar atmosphere of emerging flux regions. In this paper, w…
