It is generally accepted that the energy that drives coronal mass ejections (CMEs) is magnetic in origin. Sheared and twisted
coronal fields can store free magnetic energy which ultimately is released in the CME. We explore the possibility of the specific
magnetic configuration of a magnetic flux rope of field lines that twist about an axial field line. The flux rope model predicts
coronal observables, including heating along forward or inverse S-shaped, or sigmoid, topological surfaces. Therefore, studying
the observed evolution of such sigmoids prior to, during, and after the CME gives us crucial insight into the physics of coronal
storage and release of magnetic energy. In particular, we consider (1) soft-X-ray sigmoids, both transient and persistent;
(2) The formation of a current sheet and cusp-shaped post-flare loops below the CME; (3) Reappearance of sigmoids after CMEs;
(4) Partially erupting filaments; (5) Magnetic cloud observations of filament material. 相似文献

An acceleration process in the collapsing magnetic trap, formed in the flare with cusp magnetic field topology, is described.
Computations show that high-energy electrons are accumulated in the central part of the collapsing magnetic trap due to an
increase of their pitch angles. The effect explains in a natural way the formation of X-ray loop-top sources. Then, using
the model with the collapsing trap and considering only the adiabatic heating process, a possible explanation for the motion
of the X-ray loop-top source observed at the beginning of some cusp-type flares is presented. 相似文献

Understanding properties of solar energetic particle (SEP) events associated with coronal mass ejections has been identified
as a key problem in solar-terrestrial physics. Although recent CME shock acceleration models are highly promising, detailed
agreement between theoretical predictions and observations has remained elusive. Recent observations from ACE have shown substantial
enrichments in the abundances of 3He and He+ ions which are extremely rare in the thermal solar wind plasma. Consequently, these ions act as tracers of their source material,
i.e.,
3He ions are flare suprathermals and He+ ions are interstellar pickup ions. The average heavy ion composition also exhibits unsystematic differences when compared
with the solar wind values, but correlates significantly with the ambient suprathermal material abundances. Taken together
these results provide compelling evidence that CME-driven shocks draw their source material from the ubiquitous but largely
unexplored suprathermal tail rather than from the more abundant solar wind peak. However, the suprathermal energy regime has
many more contributors and exhibits much larger variability than the solar wind, and as such needs to be investigated more
thoroughly. Answers to fundamental new questions regarding the preferred injection of the suprathermal ions, the spatial and
temporal dependence of the various sources, and the causes of their variability and their effects on the SEP properties are
needed to improve agreement between the simulations and observations. 相似文献

Interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) originating from closed field regions on the Sun are the most energetic phenomenon
in the heliosphere. They cause intense geomagnetic storms and drive fast mode shocks that accelerate charged particles. ICMEs
are the interplanetary manifestations of CMEs typically remote-sensed by coronagraphs. This paper summarizes the observational
properties of ICMEs with reference to the ordinary solar wind and the progenitor CMEs. 相似文献

During solar flares, the X-ray radiation suddenly increases, resulting in an increase in the electron density of the atmospheric D region and a strong absorption of short-wave radio waves. Based on Langfang medium frequency (MF) radar, this paper analyzed the variation characteristics of D region in the lower ionosphere from 62 km to 82 km. The analysis focused on multiple C-level and M-level solar flare events before and after the large-scale flare event at 11:53 (UT) on September 6, 2017. The results show that it is difficult to detect the electron density over 70 km in Langfang during solar flares, but the electron density value can be obtained as low as 62 km, and the stronger the flare intensity, the lower the detectable electron density height. Besides, the equal electron density height, the received power of X and O waves will also be significantly reduced during the flares, and the reduction of equal electron density height has a weak linear relationship with flare intensity. 相似文献

The paper deals with the relation of the southern orientation of the north–south component Bz of the interplanetary magnetic field to geomagnetic activity (GA) and subsequently a method is suggested of using the found facts to forecast potentially dangerous high GA. We have found that on a day with very high GA hourly averages of Bz with a negative sign occur at least 16 times in typical cases. Since it is very difficult to estimate the orientation of Bz in the immediate vicinity of the Earth one day or even a few days in advance, we have suggested using a neural-network model, which assumes the worse of the possibilities to forecast the danger of high GA – the dominant southern orientation of the interplanetary magnetic field. The input quantities of the proposed model were information about X-ray flares, type II and IV radio bursts as well as information about coronal mass ejections (CME). In comparing the GA forecasts with observations, we obtain values of the Hanssen–Kuiper skill score ranging from 0.463 to 0.727, which are usual values for similar forecasts of space weather. The proposed model provides forecasts of potentially dangerous high geomagnetic activity should the interplanetary CME (ICME), the originator of geomagnetic storms, hit the Earth under the most unfavorable configuration of cosmic magnetic fields. We cannot know in advance whether the unfavorable configuration is going to occur or not; we just know that it will occur with the probability of 31%. 相似文献

Almost 10 years of solar submillimeter observations have shown new aspects of solar activity, such as the presence of rapid solar spikes associated with the launch of coronal mass ejections and an increasing submillimeter spectral component in flares. We analyse the singular microwave–submillimeter spectrum of an M class solar flare on 20 December, 2002. Flux density observations measured by Sun patrol telescopes and the Solar Submillimeter Telescope are used to build the radio spectrum, which is fitted using Ramaty’s code. At submillimeter frequencies the spectrum shows a component different from the microwave classical burst. The fitting is achieved proposing two homogeneous sources of emission. This theoretical fitting is in agreement with differential precipitation through a magnetically asymmetric loop or set of loops. From a coronal magnetic field model we infer an asymmetric magnetic structure at the flare location. The model proposed to quantify the differential precipitation rates due to the asymmetry results in a total precipitation ratio Q2/Q1≈104–105, where Q1(Q2) represents the total precipitation in the loop foot with the high (low) magnetic field intensity. This ratio agrees with the electron total number ratio of the two sources proposed to fit the radio spectrum. 相似文献

This review focuses on the processes that energize and trigger M- and X-class solar flares and associated flux-rope destabilizations. Numerical modeling of specific solar regions is hampered by uncertain coronal-field reconstructions and by poorly understood magnetic reconnection; these limitations result in uncertain estimates of field topology, energy, and helicity. The primary advances in understanding field destabilizations therefore come from the combination of generic numerical experiments with interpretation of sets of observations. These suggest a critical role for the emergence of twisted flux ropes into pre-existing strong field for many, if not all, of the active regions that produce M- or X-class flares. The flux and internal twist of the emerging ropes appear to play as important a role in determining whether an eruption will develop predominantly as flare, confined eruption, or CME, as do the properties of the embedding field. Based on reviewed literature, I outline a scenario for major flares and eruptions that combines flux-rope emergence, mass draining, near-surface reconnection, and the interaction with the surrounding field. Whether deterministic forecasting is in principle possible remains to be seen: to date no reliable such forecasts can be made. Large-sample studies based on long-duration, comprehensive observations of active regions from their emergence through their flaring phase are needed to help us better understand these complex phenomena. 相似文献

The early phases of three flares, observed by the Nobeyama Radio Heliograph, are studied. Nonthermal and thermal radio sources are identified by comparison with soft X-ray images taken by the Soft X-ray Telescope onboard the Yohkoh satellite. Two of the flares are mainly of nonthermal origin and their location coincides with one of the footpoints of soft X-ray loops. Another flare has both thermal and nonthermal components which start to brighten simultaneously. This suggests that particle acceleration and plasma compression develop simultaneously. 相似文献
