AbstractThis paper describes an MHD simulation of an observed Sigmoid in AR 11283 from its formation to eruption. The Non-linear Force Free MHD model (Jiang and Feng, 2012) and the data-driven active region evolution model (Wu et al., 2006; Jiang et al. 2013) together with the SDO/HMI magnetograms are used. We show the successful simulation results of the eruption of a flux-rope structure.

AbstractWith the cylindrical equal area (CEA) projection data from the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) onboard the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), we reconstructed the three-dimensional (3D) magnetic fields in the corona, using a non-linear force-free field (NLFFF) extrapolation method every 12 minutes during five days, to calculate the squashing degree factor Q in the volume. The results show that this AR has an hyperbolic flux tube (HFT) configuration, a typical topology of quadrupole, which is stable even during the two large flares (M6.6 and X2.2 class flares).

Abstract. We present general considerations regarding the derivation of the radial distances of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) from elongation angle measurements such as those provided by SECCHI and SMEI, focusing on measurements in the Heliospheric Imager 2 (HI-2) field of view (i.e. past 0.3 AU). This study is based on a three-dimensional (3-D) magneto-hydrodynamics (MHD) simulation of two CMEs observed by SECCHI on 24–27 January 2007. Having a 3-D simulation with synthetic HI images, we are able to compare the two basic methods used to derive CME positions from elongation angles, the so-called "Point-P" and "Fixed-φ" approximations. We confirm, following similar works, that both methods, while valid in the most inner heliosphere, yield increasingly large errors in HI-2 field of view for fast and wide CMEs. Using a simple model of a CME as an expanding self-similar sphere, we derive an analytical relationship between elongation angles and radial distances for wide CMEs. This relationship is simply the harmonic mean of the "Point-P" and "Fixed-φ" approximations and it is aimed at complementing 3-D fitting of CMEs by cone models or flux rope shapes. It proves better at getting the kinematics of the simulated CME right when we compare the results of our line-of-sights to the MHD simulation. Based on this approximation, we re-analyze the J-maps (time-elongation maps) in 26–27 January 2007 and present the first observational evidence that the merging of CMEs is associated with a momentum exchange from the faster ejection to the slower one due to the propagation of the shock wave associated with the fast eruption through the slow eruption.

AbstractThe magnetic field evolution of active region NOAA 11059 is studied in order to determine the possible causes and mechanisms that led to the initiation of the 2010 April 3 coronal mass ejection (CME).We find (1) that the magnetic configuration of the active region is unstable to the torus instability and (2) that persistent shearing motions characterized the negative polarity, resulting in a southward, almost parallel to the meridians, drift motion of the negative magnetic field concentrations.We conclude that these shearing motions increased the axial field of the filament eventually bringing the flux rope axis to a height where the onset condition for the torus instability was satisfied.

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.
