Direct Numerical Comparison of Data Driving Strategies for Solar Flux Emergence in Magnetohydrodynamics: B-driving vs E-driving
Kyriakos Christos Tapinou, Axel Raboonik, David I. Pontin +3
Data driving is an important technique for modelling realistic magnetic field and plasma evolution in regions of the solar atmosphere where direct observations are either absent or…
Validating Coronal Magnetic Field Models Using Gaussian Separation
Abhinav G. Iyer, Michael S. Wheatland, Brian T. Welsch +2
Nonlinear Force-free Field (NLFFF) models are widely used to investigate coronal magnetic field structure in solar active regions, but methods to validate them remain limited. Here…
A Convolutional Neural Network-Derived Catalog of Solar Flares from Soft X-Ray Observations
Nastaran Farhang, Michael. S. Wheatland, Andrew Melatos
A convolutional neural network (CNN) is used to construct a new catalog for solar flares based on high resolution (1-s cadence) Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites (…
Asymptotic stability of laser-driven lightsails: Enhancement by optical dispersion engineering in gratings
Jadon Y. Lin, Liam van Ravenstein, C. Martijn de Sterke +3
Lightsails are promising spacecraft that can traverse interstellar distances within decades via radiation-pressure propulsion from high-power lasers. The envisioned missions crucia…
All-optical damping forces enhanced by metasurfaces for stable relativistic lightsail propulsion
Jadon Y. Lin, C. Martijn de Sterke, Michael S. Wheatland +2
Lightsails are a promising spacecraft concept that can reach relativistic speeds via propulsion by laser light, allowing travel to nearby stars within a human lifetime. The success…
Poynting-Robertson damping of laser beam driven lightsails
Rhys Mackintosh, Jadon Y. Lin, Michael S. Wheatland +1
Lightsails using Earth-based lasers for propulsion require passive stabilization to stay within the beam. This can be achieved through the sail's scattering properties, creating op…
