The steady incompressible ideal free-boundary flows of a hydromagnetic star

B. C. Low, S. W. McIntosh

This self-contained theoretical study treats incompressible, free-boundary flows in a gravitating, ideal hydromagnetic star abutting vacuum, centered on the steady field-aligned fl…

Unresolved Mixed Polarity Magnetic Fields at Flux Cancellation Site in Solar Photosphere at 0".3 Spatial Resolution

Masahito Kubo, Boon Chye Low, Bruce W. Lites

This is a follow-up investigation of a magnetic-flux cancellation event at a polarity inversion line (PIL) on the Sun observed with the spectropolarimeter on board Hinode. Anomalou…

A solar tornado triggered by flares?

N. K. Panesar, D. E. Innes, S. K. Tiwari +1

Solar tornados are dynamical, conspicuously helical magnetic structures mainly observed as a prominence activity. We investigate and propose a triggering mechanism for the solar to…

Magnetic Helicity of Self-Similar Axisymmetric Force-free Fields

Mei Zhang, Natasha Flyer, Boon Chye Low

In this paper we continue our theoretical studies on addressing what are the possible consequences of magnetic helicity accumulation in the solar corona. Our previous studies sugge…

The Hydromagnetic Interior of a Solar Quiescent Prominence. I. Coupling between Force-balance and Steady Energy-transport

B. C. Low, T. Berger, R. Casini +1

This series of papers investigates the dynamic interior of a quiescent prominence revealed by recent {\it Hinode} and {\it SDO/AIA} high-resolution observations. This first paper i…

First SDO/AIA Observation of Solar Prominence Formation Following an Eruption: Magnetic Dips and Sustained Condensation and Drainage

Wei Liu, Thomas E. Berger, B. C. Low

Imaging solar coronal condensation forming prominences was difficult in the past, a situation recently changed by Hinode and SDO. We present the first example observed with SDO/AIA…
