Witnessing Magnetic Reconnection in Tangled Superpenumbral Fibrils Around a Sunspot
Hechao Chen, Hui Tian, Eric R. Priest +8
Three-dimensional magnetic reconnection is a fundamental plasma process crucial for heating the solar corona and generating the solar wind, but resolving and characterizing it on t…
Thermodynamic and Magnetic Topology Evolution of the X1.0 Flare on 2021 October 28 Simulated by a Data-driven Radiative Magnetohydrodynamic Model
Jin-han Guo, Yi-wei Ni, Ze Zhong +6
Solar filament eruptions, flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are manifestations of drastic release of energy in the magnetic field, which are related to many eruptive phenome…
Formation of Quiescent Prominence Magnetic Field by Supergranulations
Qingjun Liu, Chun Xia
To understand the formation of quiescent solar prominences, the origin of their magnetic field structures, i.e., magnetic flux ropes (MFRs), must be revealed. We use three-dimensio…
Interacting tilt and kink instabilities in repelling current channels
Rony Keppens, Oliver Porth, Chun Xia
We present a numerical study in resistive magnetohydrodynamics where the initial equilibrium configuration contains adjacent, oppositely directed, parallel current channels. Since…
Simulating the in situ condensation process of solar prominences
Chun Xia, Rony Keppens, Patrick Antolin +1
Prominences in the solar corona are hundredfold cooler and denser than their surroundings, with a total mass of 1.e13 up to 1.e15 g. Here we report on the first comprehensive simul…
The Dynamics of Funnel Prominences
Rony Keppens, Chun Xia
We present numerical simulations in 2.5D settings where large scale prominences form in situ out of coronal condensation in magnetic dips, in close agreement with early as well as…
