Solar Magnetic Flux Rope Eruption Simulated by a Data-Driven Magnetohydrodynamic Model

Yang Guo, Chun Xia, Rony Keppens +2

The combination of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation and multi-wavelength observations is an effective way to study mechanisms of magnetic flux rope eruption. We develop a data-…

Rapid buildup of a magnetic flux rope during a confined X2.2 class flare in NOAA AR 12673

Lijuan Liu, Xin Cheng, Yuming Wang +3

Magnetic flux ropes (MFRs) are believed to be the core structure in solar eruptions, nevertheless, their formation remains intensely debated. Here we report a rapid buildup process…

A Statistical Study of the Magnetic Imprints of X-Class Solar Flares

Zekun Lu, Weiguang Cao, Gaoxiang Jin +3

Magnetic imprints, the rapid and irreversible evolution of photospheric magnetic fields as a feedback from flares in the corona, have been confirmed by many previous studies. These…

An Observationally-Constrained Model of a Flux Rope that Formed in the Solar Corona

Alexander W. James, Gherardo Valori, Lucie M. Green +4

Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are large-scale eruptions of plasma from the coronae of stars. Understanding the plasma processes involved in CME initiation has applications to space…

Observationally quantified reconnection providing a viable mechanism for active region coronal heating

Kai E. Yang, Dana W. Longcope, M. D. Ding +1

The heating of the Sun's corona has been explained by several different mechanisms including wave dissipation and magnetic reconnection. While both have been shown capable of suppl…
