研究MHD模拟中的4D冠状加热事件

Investigating 4D Coronal Heating Events In MHD Simulations

Charalambos Kanella, Boris V. Gudiksen

摘要:

一个加热日冕的候选模型是体现电流片欧姆耗散的磁重联。当许多小规模的磁重联发生时,就有可能加热日冕。由于目前仪器的限制,无法分辨纳米片。但是,它们的重要性是通过统计评估,找到能量分布的幂律指数。然而,由于技术和物理原因,这种方法存在偏差。我们的目标是克服观测和统计分析所带来的局限性。这样,我们将识别和研究小规模脉冲事件。我们采用三维磁流体动力学(3D-MHD)模拟使用\bifrost代码。我们还采用了一种新的技术,以确定在电晕的3D焦耳加热事件的演变。然后,我们推导出描述这些位置的加热事件的参数。我们报告加热事件的识别。我们得到了持续时间,释放的能量和体积的分布。我们还发现这些参数之间的弱幂律相关性。此外,我们提取的3D事件的2D切片的几何参数的信息,并解决焦耳加热的演变相比,总焦耳加热和日冕中的磁能。即使能量功率指数小于2,当将能量释放分为关于能量释放的三个类别(微微事件、纳米事件和微事件)时,我们发现纳米事件释放分辨能量的$82 \ \%$。这一部分对应于比加热日冕所需的能量通量更大的能量通量。似乎最流行的人口是一个包含短寿命,小空间扩展事件。

英文摘要:

One candidate-model for heating the solar corona is magnetic reconnection that embodies Ohmic dissipation of current sheets. When numerous small-scaled magnetic reconnection occur, then it is possible to heat the corona. Due to the limitations of current instrumentation, nanoflares cannot be resolved. But their importance is evaluated via statistics by finding the power-law index of the energy distribution. This method is however biased due to technical and physical reasons. We aim to overcome limitations imposed by observations and statistical analysis. This way, we will identify, and study the small scale impulsive events. We employ a three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (3D-MHD) simulation using the \bifrost code. We also employ a new technique to identify the evolution of 3D Joule heating events in the corona. Then, we derive parameters describing the heating events in these locations. We report on the identification of heating events. We obtain the distribution of duration, released energy, and volume. We also find weak power-law correlation between these parameters. In addition, we extract information about geometrical parameters of 2D slices of 3D events, and about the evolution of resolved Joule heating compared to the total Joule heating and the magnetic energy in the corona. Even though the energy power index is less than 2, when classifying the energy release into three categories regarding with respect to the energy release (pico-, nano-, and micro-events), we find that nano-events release $82 \ \%$ of the resolved energy. This fraction corresponds to an energy flux larger than the one needed to heat the corona. It seems that the most popular population is the one containing short-lived, with small spatial extend events.
