Magnetic Flux Cancellation and Coronal Magnetic Energy
I investigate the processes at work in the cancellation of normal magnetic flux in solar magnetograms and study the relationships between cancellation and the budget of free magnetic energy in the coronal magnetic field that can power solar flares and CMEs. After defining cancellation mathematically, I derive equations that quantify the evolution of free magnetic energy in response to arbitrary...
متن کاملMagnetic Flux Cancellation in Ellerman Bombs
Ellerman Bombs (EBs) are often found to be co-spatial with bipolar photospheric magnetic fields. We use Hα imaging spectroscopy along with Fe I 6302.5Å spectropolarimetry from the Swedish 1 m Solar Telescope (SST), combined with data from the Solar Dynamic Observatory, to study EBs and the evolution of the local magnetic fields at EB locations. EBs are found via an EB detection and tracking alg...
متن کاملCoronal heating by collision and cancellation of magnetic elements
A model is proposed for the coronal response to the interaction between randomly moving photospheric magnetic ux elements. In this model the collision between two elements of opposing sign results in reconnection and the appearance of an X-ray bright point. A section of quiet sun on which elements are distributed and moving randomly, will contain a number of X-ray bright points. The model combi...
متن کاملCoronal mass ejections and magnetic flux buildup in the heliosphere
[1] To test for magnetic flux buildup in the heliosphere from coronal mass ejections (CMEs), we simulate heliospheric flux as a constant background open flux with a time-varying interplanetary CME (ICME) contribution. As flux carried by ejecta can only contribute to the heliospheric flux budget while it remains closed, the ICME flux opening rate is an important factor. Two separate forms for th...
متن کاملCoronal and heliospheric magnetic flux circulation and its relation to open solar flux evolution
Solar cycle 24 is notable for three features that can be found in previous cycles but which have been unusually prominent: (1) sunspot activity was considerably greater in the northern/southern hemisphere during the rising/declining phase; (2) accumulation of open solar flux (OSF) during the rising phase was modest, but rapid in the early declining phase; (3) the heliospheric current sheet (HCS...
