The active region NOAA 8151 observed between February 11–13, 1998 exhibits a filament eruption linked to the disappearance of a sigmoidal structure. Using vector magnetograms from IVM (Mees Observatory, Hawaii), we perform a non linear force-free reconstruction of the coronal magnetic field above this active region. This reconstruction allows to determine the distribution of electric currents, the magnetic energy and the relative magnetic helicity. The reconstructed magnetic field lines are compared to the soft X-rays (SXT, Yohkoh) observations.

AbstractTwo flares occurred simultaneously in active region NOAA 9433 on 2001 April 25. The GOES X-ray fluxes show only one peak during the two flares. The negative magnetic polarities in the two flaring regions exhibited a clockwise rotation motion around the positive polarities, which can be seen from the evolution of the SOHO/MDI magnetograms. Through analyzing the potential fields extrapolated from the MDI magnetogram, we find that there is a channel strode by a group of magnetic field lines connecting the two flaring regions.

AbstractThe active region NOAA 8032 of April 15, 1997 was observed to evolve rapidly. The GOES X-ray data showed a number of sub-flares and two C-class flares during the 8–9 hours of its evolution. The magnetic evolution of this region is studied to ascertain its role in flare production. Large changes were observed in magnetic field configuration due to the emergence of new magnetic flux regions (EFR). Most of the new emergence occured very close to the existing magnetic regions, which resulted in strong magnetic field gradients in this region. EFR driven reconnection of the field lines and subsequent flux cancellation might be the reason for the continuous occurrence of sub-flares and other related activities.

AbstractAn enormous solar tornado was observed by SDO/AIA on 25 September 2011. It was mainly associated with a quiescent prominence with an overlying coronal cavity. We investigate the triggering mechanism of the solar tornado by using the data from two instruments: SDO/AIA and STEREO-A/EUVI, covering the Sun from two directions. The tornado appeared near to the active region NOAA 11303 that produced three flares. The flares directly influenced the prominence-cavity system. The release of free magnetic energy from the active region by flares resulted in the contraction of the active region field. The cavity, owing to its superior magnetic pressure, expanded to fill this vacated space in the corona. We propose that the tornado developed on the top of the prominence due to the expansion of the prominence-cavity system.

AbstractIn this paper, the evolution history of longitudinal magnetic field of a decaying active region (NOAA AR6703) was studied. We also described the X1.9/4B flare occurring in AR6703, as well as the accompaning events, and emphasized in analysizing the features of longitudinal magnetic fields before the flare.
