Magnetic field inclination and atmospheric oscillations above solar active regions
Recent observational evidence for magnetic field direction effects on helioseismic signals in sunspot penumbrae is suggestive of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) mode conversion occurring at lower levels. This possibility is explored using wave mechanical and ray theory in a model of the Sun’s surface layers permeated by uniform inclined magnetic field. It is found that fastto-slow conversion near the...
متن کاملThe Transparency of Solar Coronal Active Regions
Resonance scattering has often been invoked to explain the disagreement between the observed and predicted line ratios of Fe XVII λ15.01 to Fe XVII λ15.26 (the “3C/3D” ratio). In this process photons of λ15.01, with its much higher oscillator strength, are preferentially scattered out of the line of sight, thus reducing the observed line ratio. Recent laboratory measurements, however, have foun...
متن کاملHelical Magnetic Fields in Solar Active Regions: Theory vs. Observations
The mean value of the normalized current helicity αp = B · (∇×B)/B 2 in solar active regions is on the order of 10 m, negative in the northern hemisphere, positive in the southern hemisphere. Observations indicate that this helicity has a subsurface origin. Possible mechanisms leading to a twist of this amplitude in magnetic flux tubes include the solar dynamo, convective buffeting of rising fl...
متن کاملRadio Measurements of Coronal Magnetic Fields
The measurement of magnetic field strengths in the solar corona using radio observations is reviewed. This is a well established technique that exploits the fact that the electron gyrofrequency for typical coronal magnetic field strengths (100–2000 Gauss) lies in the radio frequency range. Opacity from the resulting gyroresonance emission from hot plasma above active regions allows the direct m...
متن کاملAnomalous Coronal Neon Abundances in Quiescent Solar Active Regions
The systematic di†erences between the solar photospheric and coronal composition are generally thought to be related to the Ðrst ionization potential (FIP) of the trace elements. While there are ample data showing that this is a signiÐcant factor, there is a growing body of observational evidence that a simple, FIP-based formula is not the whole story for coronal abundances. One of the most tro...
