Slingshot prominences above stellar X-ray coronae
We present a new model for the coronal structure of rapidly rotating solar-type stars. The presence of prominences trapped in co-rotation 2 to 5 stellar radii above the stellar surface has been taken as evidence that the coronae of these stars must be very extended. The observed surface magnetic fields, however, cannot contain Xray emitting gas out to these distances. We present an alternative ...
متن کاملMagnetic Dips in Prominences
Magnetic dips are generally assumed to be basic equilibrium con-gurations in quiescent solar prominences. Here we discuss two types of the magnetic dips which were considered in the literature: (1) dips resulting from a force-free magnetic equilibrium in the corona, and (2) magnetic dips which are formed in situations where the Lorentz force balances the weight of the prominence plasma. An impo...
متن کاملMagnetic Flux Tube Reconnection: Tunneling Versus Slingshot
The highly discrete nature of the solar magnetic field as it emerges into the corona through the photosphere, where it is predominantly concentrated into sunspots and magnetic pores, indicates that the magnetic field exists as discrete, isolated flux tubes in the convection zone, and will remain as discrete flux tubes in the corona until it collides and reconnects with other coronal fields. Col...
متن کاملStellar magnetic cycles
The solar activity cycle is a manifestation of the hydromagnetic dynamo working inside our star. The detection of activity cycles in solar-like stars and the study of their properties allow us to put the solar dynamo in perspective, investigating how dynamo action depends on stellar parameters and stellar structure. Nevertheless, the lack of spatial resolution and the limited time extension of ...
متن کاملStellar Explosions by Magnetic Towers
We propose a magnetic mechanism for the collimated explosion of massive stars relevant for long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), X-ray Flashes (XRFs) and asymmetric core collapse supernovae. In particular, we apply Lynden-Bell’s magnetic tower scenario to the interior of a massive rotating star after the core has collapsed to form a collapsar with a black hole accretion disk or a millisecond m...
