由观测到的光球运动驱动的阿尔芬波的非线性传播:应用于日冕加热和针状物形成

Nonlinear propagation of Alfven waves driven by observed photospheric motions: Application to the coronal heating and spicule formation

Takuma Matsumoto, Kazunari Shibata

摘要:

我们已经进行了MHD模拟阿尔芬波沿开放的通量管在太阳大气中的传播。在我们的数值模型中,阿尔芬波是由光球颗粒运动产生的。作为波发生器,我们使用了一个派生的时间谱的光球颗粒运动从G波段电影的日出/SOT。结果表明,用观测谱代替白/粉红噪声谱作为波发生器时,日冕处的总能流变大,过渡区高度变高。这种差异可以用光球层和过渡区之间的阿尔芬波共振来解释。对数值结果进行傅里叶分析后发现,光球层和过渡区之间的区域成为阿尔芬波谐振腔。我们已经证实,至少有三个谐振频率,1,3和5兆赫,在我们的数值模型。阿尔芬波共振是解释针状体动力学和日冕有足够的能流加热的最有效机制之一。

英文摘要:

We have performed MHD simulations of Alfven wave propagation along an open flux tube in the solar atmosphere. In our numerical model, Alfven waves are generated by the photospheric granular motion. As the wave generator, we used a derived temporal spectrum of the photospheric granular motion from G-band movies of Hinode/SOT. It is shown that the total energy flux at the corona becomes larger and the transition region height becomes higher in the case when we use the observed spectrum rather than white/pink noise spectrum as the wave generator. This difference can be explained by the Alfven wave resonance between the photosphere and the transition region. After performing Fourier analysis on our numerical results, we have found that the region between the photosphere and the transition region becomes an Alfven wave resonant cavity. We have confirmed that there are at least three resonant frequencies, 1, 3 and 5 mHz, in our numerical model. Alfven wave resonance is one of the most effective mechanisms to explain the dynamics of the spicules and the sufficient energy flux to heat the corona.
