Magnetohydrodynamic coronal modelling with high-fidelity magnetograms

Haopeng Wang, Stefaan Poedts, Wensi Wang +16

To resolve coronal structures in detail, it is essential to constrain the coronal model using high-fidelity magnetograms with minimal smoothing. In this paper, we improve the numer…

Parametric Study of the Torus Instability Threshold

Jun Chen, Bernhard Kliem, Rui Liu

The torus instability of an arched current channel has been suggested to initiate and drive major solar and stellar eruptions. Its threshold, given by the critical decay index of t…

What Causes the Asymmetry of Conjugate Hard X-Ray Footpoints in Solar Flares?

Mirabbos Mirkamalov, Rui Liu, Runbin Luo +1

Hard X-ray (HXR) emission in solar flares critically diagnoses nonthermal electron acceleration, transport, and precipitation. Observations commonly show asymmetric HXR photon flux…

Effects of supra-arcade downflows interacting with the post-flare arcade

Arun Kumar Awasthi, Rui Liu, Tingyu Gou

Supra-arcade downflows (SADs) are dark voids descending through plasma above the post-flare arcade. Although they are generally viewed as byproducts of flare reconnections in the c…

Sigmoid Formation Through Slippage of A Single J-shaped Coronal Loop

Hanya Pan, Tingyu Gou, Rui Liu

A well-known precursor of an imminent solar eruption is the appearance of a hot S-shaped loop, also known as sigmoid, in an active region (AR). Classically, the formation of such a…

Where and how does a decay-index profile become saddle-like?

Runbin Luo, Rui Liu

The decay index of solar magnetic fields is known as an important parameter in regulating solar eruptions from the standpoint of the torus instability. In particular, a saddle-like…
