Chaos in magnetic flux ropes
Magnetic flux ropes immersed in a uniform magnetoplasma are observed to twist about themselves, writhe about each other and rotate about a central axis. They are kink unstable and smash into one another as they move. Each collision results in magnetic field line reconnection and the generation of a quasi-separatrix layer. Three-dimensional magnetic field lines are computed by conditionally aver...
متن کاملConfined and Ejective Eruptions of Kink-unstable Flux Ropes
The ideal helical kink instability of a force-free coronal magnetic flux rope, anchored in the photosphere, is studied as a model for solar eruptions. Using the flux rope model of Titov & Démoulin (1999) as the initial condition in MHD simulations, both the development of helical shape and the rise profile of a confined (or failed) filament eruption (on 2002 May 27) are reproduced in excellent ...
متن کاملStationary flux ropes at the southern terminator of Mars
[1] Flux ropes have long been observed in the upper atmosphere of Venus and more recently at Mars. Here we present magnetic field measurements of flux ropes encountered at the southern terminator of Mars by Mars Global Surveyor and compare them to a flux rope model. This allows several parameters of each rope to be inferred. Remarkably similar flux ropes are met repeatedly at the southern termi...
متن کاملMaximum Energies of Force-free Coronal Flux Ropes
Magnetic energy is believed to play amajor role in powering coronal mass ejections (CMEs). Freemagnetic energy is associated with electric currents that give the magnetic field more energy than a purely potential (current-free) field. For magnetic energy alone to power a CME, the energy must be sufficient to open the magnetic field to interplanetary space, to lift the ejecta against solar gravi...
