太阳惯性模日益被视为探测太阳内部的探针，近期日震学证据表明这些模可能对内部磁场敏感。我们利用全球非线性磁流体动力学（MHD）模拟，研究了磁场对惯性模激发和动力学的作用，其中差动旋转被强制趋向于日震学推导的剖面。不同强度和拓扑结构的初始极向场通过Ω效应自洽地产生不同的环向场构型。在所有情况下，斜压不稳定性激发高纬度惯性模，弱磁场使其增长率高于流体动力学值。对于较强磁场，响应取决于拓扑结构和深度。因此，极地涡旋更早出现，并改变其相对振幅、手性和半球不对称性。只有在上对流区表现出环向带的磁拓扑结构，才会在这些带的赤道边缘发展出第二种磁剪切（“边缘”）不稳定性。该不稳定性主要由环向场驱动，初始场越强，其发生越早、增长越快。它激发了流体动力学模拟中不存在的赤道模，其快速磁罗斯贝特征在太克琳深度接近经典罗斯贝频散关系。阿尔芬特征和初步的慢磁罗斯贝分支也出现。因此，惯性模的激发和频率取决于磁拓扑结构和空间分布，而不仅仅是场强。
英文摘要
Solar inertial modes are increasingly viewed as probes of the solar interior, with recent helioseismic evidence indicating that these modes may be sensitive to the internal magnetic field. We investigate the role of magnetic fields on inertial mode excitation and dynamics using global nonlinear MHD simulations with differential rotation forced toward a helioseismically derived profile. Initial poloidal fields of varying strengths and topologies self-consistently generate different toroidal field configurations through the $Ω$-effect. In all cases, baroclinic instability excites high-latitude inertial modes, with weak fields enhancing its growth rate above the hydrodynamic value. For stronger fields, the response depends on topology and depth. As a consequence, the polar vortex emerges earlier and modifies its relative amplitude, handedness, and hemispheric asymmetry. Only magnetic topologies exhibiting toroidal bands at the upper convection zone develop a second, magneto-shear ("edge") instability at the equatorward edges of these bands. Powered mainly by the toroidal field, this instability sets in earlier and grows faster for stronger initial fields. It excites equatorial modes absent in the hydrodynamic simulation, with fast magneto-Rossby signatures approaching the classical Rossby dispersion relation at tachocline depths. Alfvénic signatures and tentative slow magneto-Rossby branches also appear. Inertial-mode excitation and frequencies thus depend on magnetic topology and spatial distribution, not merely field strength.
