How Magnetic Field Strength Affects Stellar Coronal Mass Ejection Dynamics
Zheng Sun, Julián D. Alvarado-Gómez, Hui Tian
Observations show that stellar coronal mass ejection (CME) candidates display relatively lower kinetic energies compared to expectations from solar flare-CME relations extrapolated…
Fine-scale downflows above flare ribbons captured by Solar Orbiter/EUI
Zheng Sun, Alexander G. M. Pietrow, Malcolm K. Druett +8
In solar flares, flare ribbons map chromospheric footpoints where flare energy deposition occurs. These locations are associated with field aligned energy transport from the corona…
Minifilament Eruptions as the Last Straw to Break the Equilibrium of a Giant Solar Filament
Hechao Chen, Hui Tian, Quanhao Zhang +8
Filament eruptions are magnetically driven violent explosions commonly observed on the Sun and late-type stars, sometimes leading to monster coronal mass ejections that directly af…
Fast Downflows Observed during a Polar Crown Filament Eruption
Zheng Sun, Hui Tian, Ting Li +2
Solar filaments can undergo eruptions and result in the formation of coronal mass ejections (CMEs), which could significantly impact planetary space environments. Observations of e…
Three types of solar coronal rain during magnetic reconnection between open and closed magnetic structures
Fangfang Qiao, Leping Li, Hui Tian +4
Coronal rain (CR) is a crucial part of the mass cycle between the corona and chromosphere. It includes the flare-driven CR and two types of quiescent CR separately along the non-fl…
Numerous Bidirectionally Propagating Plasma Blobs near the Reconnection Site of a Solar Eruption
Zhenyong Hou, Hui Tian, Maria S. Madjarska +7
Current sheet is a common structure involved in solar eruptions. However, it is observed in minority of the events and the physical properties of its fine structures during a solar…
Formation of Fan-spine Magnetic Topology through Flux Emergence and Subsequent Jet Production
Yadan Duan, Hui Tian, Hechao Chen +4
Fan-spine magnetic structure, as a fundamental three-dimensional topology in magnetic reconnection theory, plays a crucial role in producing solar jets. However, how fan-spine conf…
