摘要:

SDO/HMI仪器提供具有高空间和时间分辨率的光球矢量磁图。我们的目的是模拟日冕磁场以上的活动区域的帮助下,一个非线性的无力外推代码。我们的代码是基于一个优化的原则,并已进行了广泛的测试,半解析和数值平衡,并已应用于矢量磁图从日出和地面观测。最近,我们实现了一个新的版本,其中考虑到光球矢量磁图的测量误差。光球场的测量通常是由于测量误差和有限的引力不一致的边界,在日冕中的无力场。为了应对这些不确定性,我们开发了两个改进:1)。对表面测量进行预处理,使其与无力场兼容2.)新的代码之间保持了力的自由约束和光球场测量的偏差的平衡。这两种方法都包含自由参数,必须对这些参数进行优化,以便与SDO/HMI数据一起使用。在这项工作中,我们描述了相应的分析方法,并评估如何以及力自由和螺线管条件的满足,磁场和电流之间的角度和比较的磁场线的投影与日冕图像SDO/AIA的无力平衡。我们还计算了可用的自由磁能,并讨论了控制参数的潜在影响。

英文摘要:

The SDO/HMI instruments provide photospheric vector magnetograms with a high spatial and temporal resolution. Our intention is to model the coronal magnetic field above active regions with the help of a nonlinear force-free extrapolation code. Our code is based on an optimization principle and has been tested extensively with semi-analytic and numeric equilibria and been applied before to vector magnetograms from Hinode and ground based observations. Recently we implemented a new version which takes measurement errors in photospheric vector magnetograms into account. Photospheric field measurements are often due to measurement errors and finite nonmagnetic forces inconsistent as a boundary for a force-free field in the corona. In order to deal with these uncertainties, we developed two improvements: 1.) Preprocessing of the surface measurements in order to make them compatible with a force-free field 2.) The new code keeps a balance between the force-free constraint and deviation from the photospheric field measurements. Both methods contain free parameters, which have to be optimized for use with data from SDO/HMI. Within this work we describe the corresponding analysis method and evaluate the force-free equilibria by means of how well force-freeness and solenoidal conditions are fulfilled, the angle between magnetic field and electric current and by comparing projections of magnetic field lines with coronal images from SDO/AIA. We also compute the available free magnetic energy and discuss the potential influence of control parameters.
