摘要:

太阳的外层大气是由等离子体组成的,等离子体的温度远远超过可见表面。我们研究了在活动区域的核心中看到的短的冷和暖(<1 MK)回路,以解决场线编织在为这些结构提供能量中的作用。我们报告的意见,从高分辨率日冕成像仪(Hi-C)已获得的协调活动与接口区域成像光谱仪(IRIS)。在有源区的核心,Hi-C的172 A带和IRIS的1400 A通道显示了平行运行的不同温度下的等离子体回路。在两个波段中看到的环之间存在小于1弧秒的小但可检测的空间偏移。最重要的是,我们没有看到这些环可能相互扭曲的观测特征。考虑到磁性编织的情况,我们对平行线圈的观察意味着,施加编织时,施加到磁场中的应力必须松弛:磁场在这些长度尺度上永远不会达到与线圈分离相当的高度编织状态。这支持了最近的环形编织的数值3D模型,其中有效耗散足够大,使得磁场不会在环内变得高度扭曲。

英文摘要:

The outer atmosphere of the Sun is composed of plasma heated to temperatures well in excess of the visible surface. We investigate short cool and warm (<1 MK) loops seen in the core of an active region to address the role of field-line braiding in energising these structures. We report observations from the High-resolution Coronal imager (Hi-C) that have been acquired in a coordinated campaign with the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS). In the core of the active region, the 172 A band of Hi-C and the 1400 A channel of IRIS show plasma loops at different temperatures that run in parallel. There is a small but detectable spatial offset of less than 1 arcsec between the loops seen in the two bands. Most importantly, we do not see observational signatures that these loops might be twisted around each other. Considering the scenario of magnetic braiding, our observations of parallel loops imply that the stresses put into the magnetic field have to relax while the braiding is applied: the magnetic field never reaches a highly braided state on these length-scales comparable to the separation of the loops. This supports recent numerical 3D models of loop braiding in which the effective dissipation is sufficiently large that it keeps the magnetic field from getting highly twisted within a loop.
