AI总结:

本研究利用3DCORE模型模拟航天器在不同位置穿越CME磁通量绳的原位信号,发现侧翼遭遇产生拉长且旋转减弱的剖面,低扭转CME侧翼存在无旋转信号,有助于区分磁通量绳类型并反驳轨迹效应导致类型不匹配的观点。

摘要:

本研究探讨了航天器位置和轨迹对日冕物质抛射(CME)原位信号的影响。我们采用3DCORE模型(一种能够为任意时空点生成原位剖面的三维磁通量绳模型)进行正演模拟,分析在0.8天文单位处相对于磁通量绳顶点不同纬度和经度位置下的此类信号。利用该方法,我们探索了不同类型磁通量绳(具有不同手性和倾角,且分为高扭转和低扭转CME)所产生的原位剖面外观。我们的发现表明,CME在顶点穿越和侧翼遭遇之间的信号存在显著差异,后者表现为拉长的剖面且旋转减弱。然而,恒定、无旋转的原位信号仅在低扭转CME的侧翼遭遇中观察到,这表明CME腿部存在未扭转的磁力线。此外,我们的研究证实了不同类型磁通量绳在原位信号中的明确表现,有助于更广泛地理解和解释观测数据。鉴于模型假设,这可能反驳了轨迹效应是导致太阳信号中磁通量绳类型不匹配的原因。尽管我们承认模型固有的局限性,如假设恒定扭转和不可变形的环状形状,我们仍能在CME全球磁场结构的背景下得出相关结论,并探讨基于原位观测区分磁通量绳类型的可能性。

英文摘要:

This study investigates the impact of spacecraft positioning and trajectory on in situ signatures of coronal mass ejections (CMEs). Employing the 3DCORE model, a 3D flux rope model that can generate in situ profiles for any given point in space and time, we conduct forward modeling to analyze such signatures for various latitudinal and longitudinal positions, with respect to the flux rope apex, at 0.8~au. Using this approach, we explore the appearance of the resulting in situ profiles for different flux rope types, with different handedness and inclination angles, for both high and low twist CMEs. Our findings reveal that CMEs exhibit distinct differences in signatures between apex hits and flank encounters, with the latter displaying elongated profiles with reduced rotation. However, constant, non-rotating in situ signatures are only observed for flank encounters of low twist CMEs, suggesting the existence of untwisted magnetic field lines within CME legs. Additionally, our study confirms the unambiguous appearance of different flux rope types in in situ signatures, contributing to the broader understanding and interpretation of observational data. Given the model assumptions, this may refute trajectory effects to be the cause for mismatching flux rope types as identified in solar signatures. While acknowledging limitations inherent in our model, such as the assumption of constant twist and non-deformable torus-like shape, we still draw relevant conclusions within the context of global magnetic field structures of CMEs and the potential for distinguishing flux rope types based on in situ observations.
