Relationship between magnetic field properties and statistical flow using numerical simulation and magnetic feature tracking on solar photosphere
K. Takahata, H. Hotta, Y. Iida +1
We perform radiative magnetohydrodynamic calculations for the solar quiet region to investigate the dependence of statistical flow on magnetic properties and the three-dimensional…
Average radial structures of gas convection in the solar granulation
T. Oba, Y. Iida, T. Shimizu
Gas convection is observed in the solar photosphere as the granulation, i.e., having highly time-dependent cellular patterns, consisting of numerous bright cells called granules an…
Statistical Relation between Solar Flares and Coronal Mass Ejections with Respect to Sigmoidal Structures in Active Regions
Y. Kawabata, Y. Iida, T. Doi +3
Statistical dependencies among features of coronal mass ejections (CMEs), solar flares, and sigmoidal structures in soft-X-ray images were investigated. We applied analysis methods…
The small-scale structure of photospheric convection retrieved by a deconvolution technique applied to Hinode/SP data
T. Oba, T. L. Riethmüller, S. K. Solanki +3
Solar granules are bright patterns surrounded by dark channels called intergranular lanes in the solar photosphere and are a manifestation of overshooting convection. Observational…
Height-dependent velocity structure of photospheric convection in granules and intergranular lanes with Hinode/SOT
T. Oba, Y. Iida, T. Shimizu
The solar photosphere is the visible surface of the Sun, where many bright granules, surrounded by narrow dark intergranular lanes, are observed everywhere. The granular pattern is…
