摘要:

为了解决长期存在的日冕加热问题,半个世纪前就有人提出日冕环可以被波加热。尽管不断积累的观测证据表明日冕波的可能重要性,仍然没有3D MHD模拟存在,显示显着加热的MHD波。在这里,我们报告的第一个三维日冕环模型加热等离子体对辐射冷却。冠状环在足点处由横向振荡驱动,随后诱导的开尔文-亥姆霍兹不稳定性使环横截面变形并产生小尺度结构。波能被转移到较小的尺度,在那里它被耗散,克服了辐射引起的内部内能损失。这些结果为解决日冕加热问题开辟了新的途径。

英文摘要:

In the quest to solve the long-standing coronal heating problem, it has been suggested half a century ago that coronal loops could be heated by waves. Despite the accumulating observational evidence of the possible importance of coronal waves, still no 3D MHD simulations exist that show significant heating by MHD waves. Here we report on the first 3D coronal loop model heating the plasma against radiative cooling. The coronal loop is driven at the footpoint by transverse oscillations and subsequently the induced Kelvin-Helmholtz instability deforms the loop cross-section and generates small-scale structures. Wave energy is transfered to smaller scales where it is dissipated, overcoming the internal energy losses by radiation. These results open up a new avenue to address the coronal heating problem.
