A Hydrodynamic Model of Alfvénic Wave Heating in a Coronal Loop and its Chromospheric Footpoints
Jeffrey W. Reep, Alexander J. B. Russell, Lucas A. Tarr +1
Alfvénic waves have been proposed as an important energy transport mechanism in coronal loops, capable of delivering energy to both the corona and chromosphere and giving rise to m…
Electric-Current Neutralization, Magnetic Shear, and Eruptive Activity in Solar Active Regions
Yang Liu, Xudong Sun, Tibor Török +2
The physical conditions that determine whether or not solar active regions (ARs) produce strong flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are not yet well understood. Here we invest…
Testing predictors of eruptivity using parametric flux emergence simulations
Chloé Guennou, Etienne Pariat, Nicole Vilmer +1
Solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are among the most energetic events in the solar system, impacting the near-Earth environment. Flare productivity is empirically know…
Magnetic Flux Emergence and Decay Rates for Preceder and Follower Sunspots Observed with HMI
A. A. Norton, E. H. Jones, M. G. Linton +1
We quantify the emergence and decay rates of preceder (p) and follower (f) sunspots within ten active regions from 2010-2014 using Space-weather Helioseismic Magnetic Imager Active…
Relative magnetic helicity as a diagnostic of solar eruptivity
E. Pariat, J. E. Leake, G. Valori +3
The discovery of clear criteria that can deterministically describe the eruptive state of a solar active region would lead to major improvements on space weather predictions. Using…
Testing the Accuracy of Data Driven MHD Simulations of Active Region Evolution
James E. Leake, Mark G. Linton, Peter W. Schuck
Models for the evolution of the solar coronal magnetic field are vital for understanding solar activity, yet the best measurements of magnetic field lie at the photosphere, necessi…
