To better understand magnetic structure and eruptive process of solar filaments, a solar active-region filament (labeled F2) eruption associated with a B-class flare was investigated by using high-resolution H$α$ data from the 1 m New Vacuum Solar Telescope (NVST), combined with EUV observations of the Solar Dynamical Observatory (SDO). The filament F2 was disturbed by another filament (labeled F1) eruption that experienced a whip-like motion. Before the filament F2 eruption, the Dopplergrams show that the southern and the northern parts of the filament F2 body exhibit blueshift and redshift along the filament spine, simultaneously. It implies that the filament F2 was rolling from one side to the other. During the filament F2 eruption, the Doppler velocity shifts of the filament body are opposite to that before its eruption. It demonstrates that the filament body exhibits an untwisting motion, which can be also identified by tracing the movement of the eruptive filament threads. Moreover, it is found that the material of the filament F2 was transferred to the surrounding magnetic field loops, which is caused by magnetic reconnection between the filament F2 and the surrounding magnetic loops. According to the right-bearing threads of the filament F2 before its eruption, it can be deduced that the filament F2 is initially supported by a sheared arcade. The following observations reveal that the twisted magnetic structure of the filament F2 formed in the eruption phase.

An Extreme Ultraviolet Wave Associated with A Solar Filament Activation
极紫外(EUV)波是令人印象深刻的日冕传播扰动。它们与各种爆发活动密切相关,可用于全球冠状地震学和太阳高能粒子加速研究。因此,对极紫外波的研究在太阳爆发和空间天气研究中具有重要意义。在这里,我们提出了一个EUV波与灯丝激活,没有演变成任何喷发。由于在其一端连续的磁通量出现和抵消,细丝以解捻运动上升,并且细丝质量沿着上升场流向另一端。有趣的是,灯丝激活后,EUV波形成了一个快速的恒定速度($\sim$ 500 km s $^{-1}$)的前面的质量流,和覆盖的冠环扩大在横向和径向方向。排除远程耀斑和缺席的日冕物质抛射的可能性,我们认为,EUV波只与灯丝激活密切相关。此外,它们之间密切的空间和时间关系表明,极紫外波很可能是由上覆环的横向扩张直接触发的。我们认为EUV波可以解释为线性快模波,成功产生EUV波的关键是激活的灯丝质量流驱动上覆环的脉冲早期横向扩展,而没有任何喷发。
Partial Eruption, Confinement, and Twist Buildup and Release of a Double-decker Filament
我们研究了2014年7月5日NOAA AR 12104中灯丝系统的失败部分喷发,使用多波长EUV,磁图和H $α$观测,以及磁场建模。纤维系统由两个几乎共空间的片段组成,它们具有不同的端点,都类似于C形。在一次喷射和一次与通量抵消有关的耀斑前兆之后,只有上段上升,然后显示出一个突出的扭曲结构,同时向其足点滚动。下段未受扰动,表明系统具有双层结构。爆发的部分最终会形成一个倒C形,材料会流向其足点,同时失去扭曲。使用磁通绳插入方法,我们构建了一个模型的源区,定性再现所观察到的演变的关键要素。在爆发开始时,该模型由通量束顶部的通量绳组成,其扭曲可以忽略不计,这与观测解释一致,即细丝具有双层结构。磁通绳在其初始松弛期间达到环面不稳定的临界高度,而下部磁通束保持稳定平衡。当磁绳到达一个类似于磁扇表面的圆顶状准分界线层时,喷发终止,尽管没有发现磁零点。磁绳通过与圆顶上方的限制性上覆通量重连而被破坏,在此过程中转移了它的扭曲。
3D evolution of a filament disappearance event observed by STEREO
2008年5月22日,在我们最近的活动JOP 178期间观察到细丝消失事件。位于南半球的丝状体具有左旋手性,符合半球规则。这一事件被几个天文台,特别是THEMIS观测到。在消失前一天,H $α$观测显示沿着暗条的相邻位置有上下流动,这表明等离子体沿着扭曲的通量绳运动。THEMIS和GONG的观测显示,剪切光球运动导致倒刺周围的磁通量抵消。STEREO A,B航天器与分离角52.4度,显示了相当不同的看法,这untwisting通量绳在He II 304的图像。在这里,我们重建的三维几何形状的灯丝在其喷发阶段,使用STEREO EUV He II 304毫米的图像,发现灯丝是高度倾斜的太阳法线。He II 304射电望远镜的影像显示了在快速演化阶段中的单个线,这些线以约100 km s $^{-1}$的视速度振荡并上升到约120 Mm的高度。最后,当磁绳膨胀到日冕中时,灯丝会变得光学上很薄,以至于无法检测到。STEREO没有探测到CME,LASCO只在02:00 UT的消失相开始时记录到一个微弱的CME,这可能是由于部分暗条喷发造成的。此外,STEREO Fe XII 195磁共振图像显示,在消失阶段之前,灯丝下方有明亮的环,表明磁通绳下方有磁重联。
