日冕雨动力学的多维模拟

Multidimensional modeling of coronal rain dynamics

X. Fang, C. Xia, R. Keppens

摘要:

我们提出了第一个多维的,磁流体动力学模拟捕获的初始形成和长期维持的神秘的日冕雨现象。我们演示了如何热不稳定性可以诱导一个壮观的显示原位形成斑点状的冷凝,然后开始他们的亲密芭蕾舞上最初的线性无力拱廊。我们的磁弧是色球、过渡区和日冕等离子体的所在。在超过80分钟的物理时间内,我们收集了足够的统计数据来量化斑点宽度,长度,速度分布和其他与现代观测知识直接匹配的特征。我们的虚拟日冕雨显示了斑点变形成$V$形状的特征,斑点之间的相互作用主要是由于压力介导的悬浮,并给出了斑点的第一个观点,这些斑点在原地蒸发,或在背景拱廊的顶点被虹吸。我们的模拟为在真正的多维环境中对日冕雨阵雨进行系统调查铺平了道路,将参数化加热处方与降雨统计数据联系起来,最终允许量化日冕加热输入。

英文摘要:

We present the first multidimensional, magnetohydrodynamic simulations which capture the initial formation and the long-term sustainment of the enigmatic coronal rain phenomenon. We demonstrate how thermal instability can induce a spectacular display of in-situ forming blob-like condensations which then start their intimate ballet on top of initially linear force-free arcades. Our magnetic arcades host chromospheric, transition region, and coronal plasma. Following coronal rain dynamics for over 80 minutes physical time, we collect enough statistics to quantify blob widths, lengths, velocity distributions, and other characteristics which directly match with modern observational knowledge. Our virtual coronal rain displays the deformation of blobs into $V$-shaped like features, interactions of blobs due to mostly pressure-mediated levitations, and gives the first views on blobs which evaporate in situ, or get siphoned over the apex of the background arcade. Our simulations pave the way for systematic surveys of coronal rain showers in true multidimensional settings, to connect parametrized heating prescriptions with rain statistics, ultimately allowing to quantify the coronal heating input.
