Magnetic Reconnection as the Key Mechanism in Sunspot Rotation Leading to Solar Eruption

Chaowei Jiang, Xueshang Feng, Xinkai Bian +8

The rotation of sunspots around their umbral center has long been considered as an important process in leading to solar eruptions, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. A…

Data-driven MHD simulation of a sunspot rotating active region leading to solar eruption

Chaowei Jiang, Xueshang Feng, Xinkai Bian +8

Solar eruptions are the leading driver of space weather, and it is vital for space weather forecast to understand in what conditions the solar eruptions can be produced and how the…

Sequential Small Coronal Mass Ejections Observed In~situ and in White-Light Images by Parker Solar Probe

Brian E. Wood, Phillip Hess, Yu Chen +1

We reconstruct the morphology and kinematics of a series of small transients that erupt from the Sun on 2021 April 24 using observations primarily from Parker Solar Probe (PSP). Th…

Formation of an observed eruptive flux rope above the torus instability threshold through tether-cutting magnetic reconnection

Avijeet Prasad, Sanjay Kumar, Alphonse C. Sterling +4

Erupting magnetic flux ropes (MFRs) play a crucial role in producing solar flares. However, the formation of erupting MFRs in complex coronal magnetic configurations and their subs…

The Structure and Origin of Switchbacks: Parker Solar Probe Observations

Jia Huang, J. C. Kasper, L. A. Fisk +25

Switchbacks are rapid magnetic field reversals that last from seconds to hours. Current Parker Solar Probe (PSP) observations pose many open questions in regard to the nature of sw…

Investigating pre-eruptive magnetic properties at the footprints of erupting magnetic flux ropes

Wensi Wang, Jiong Qiu, Rui Liu +4

It is well established that solar eruptions are powered by free magnetic energy stored in current-carrying magnetic field in the corona. It has also been generally accepted that ma…
