Estimating Electric Fields from Vector Magnetogram Sequences
G. H. Fisher, B. T. Welsch, W. P. Abbett +1
Determining the electric field (E-field) distribution on the Sun's photosphere is essential for quantitative studies of how energy flows from the Sun's photosphere, through the cor…

The Three-dimensional Evolution of Rising, Twisted Magnetic Flux Tubes in a Gravitationally Stratified Model Convection Zone
W. P. Abbett, G. H. Fisher, Y. Fan
We present three-dimensional numerical simulations of the rise and fragmentation of twisted, initially horizontal magnetic flux tubes which evolve into emerging Omega-loops. The fl…
