Jaroslav Dudik, Elena Dzifcakova, Jonathan W. Cirtain

摘要:

我们计算了从静止活动区NOAA 11482的高分辨率\textit{Hinode} /SOT磁图外推的潜在磁场中的面积膨胀因子的3D分布。仅保留封闭循环内的计算框,我们表明,面积扩展因子的分布显示出显着的结构。环状结构,其特征在于局部较低的值的膨胀因子嵌入在一个光滑的背景。这些环状磁通管的横截面被压扁,并随着高度而膨胀。扩展因子的分布显示出总体上随高度增加,允许区分以低扩展因子值为特征的有源区核心。从外推的SOT磁图获得的面积扩展因子进行比较,从一系列的134淹没收费的观测磁图的近似获得的。这种近似保留了观测到的磁图中的一般通量分布,但去除了近似磁图和面积扩展因子的3D分布中的小尺度结构。我们认为,结构的膨胀因子可以是一个重要的成分,在生产所观察到的结构的日冕。然而,由于潜在的近似使用,这些结果可能不适用于环表现出扭曲也不活跃的地区产生显着的耀斑。

英文摘要:

We calculated the 3D distribution of the area expansion factors in a potential magnetic field extrapolated from the high-resolution \textit{Hinode}/SOT magnetogram of a quiescent active region NOAA 11482. Retaining only closed loops within the computational box, we show that the distribution of area expansion factors show significant structure. Loop-like structures characterized by locally lower values of the expansion factor are embedded in a smooth background. These loop-like flux-tubes have squashed cross-sections and expand with height. The distribution of the expansion factors show overall increase with height, allowing an active region core characterized by low values of the expansion factor to be distinguished. The area expansion factors obtained from extrapolation of the SOT magnetogram are compared to those obtained from an approximation of the observed magnetogram by a series of 134 submerged charges. This approximation retains the general flux distribution in the observed magnetogram, but removes the small-scale structure in both the approximated magnetogram and the 3D distribution of the area expansion factors. We argue that the structuring of the expansion factor can be a significant ingredient in producing the observed structuring of the solar corona. However, due to the potential approximation used, these results may not be applicable to loops exhibiting twist neither to active regions producing significant flares.
