Magnetic flux vertical modulation method based on piezoelectric resonance can reduce the 1/f noise of tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) magnetic sensor and significantly improves the low-frequency magnetic field detectivity. However, the amplitude variation of the modulation structure will lead to the instability of the sensor output. In order to improve the amplitude stability of the modulation structure, an amplitude control method based on the amplitude ratio of the first and second harmonic components of the modulated signal was proposed. Compared with the piezoelectric or capacitive feedback method, this method does not require an independent amplitude conversion circuit, and has the advantages of simple structure, high control efficiency and strong anti-interference ability. The experimental results showed that the amplitude and temperature drift of the modulated structure was significantly suppressed, which is of great significance for enhancing the adaptability of the TMR magnetic sensor to the application environments.

This paper presents a new digital fluxgate current sensor based on second harmonic detection for DC and AC measurement. The sensor utilizes a feedback loop to obtain an almost zero-flux condition, i.e., a balance between the magnetic flux of the primary current and the feedback current, in which way the feedback current is proportional to the primary current. The AC magnetic flux is detected with an induction coil, and the DC zero-flux condition is realized by magnetic saturation effect method, where the magnetic core is periodically magnetized and then the second harmonic of the magnetization current is calculated as an indication of the DC magnetic flux. After theoretical derivation, the operating principle of the sensor was investigated using a numerical simulation model built with Simulink of MATLAB. In addition, a prototype sensor was developed and tested. The experiment results demonstrate that the current sensor works properly for DC and AC measurement. The average error is about 0.06% for DC measurement.

Extended AbstractWe have examined the morphological properties of a sigmoid associated with an SXR (soft X-ray) flare. The sigmoid is cospatial with the EUV (extreme ultra violet) images and in the optical part lies along an S-shaped Hαfilament. The photoheliogram shows flux emergence within an existingδtype sunspot which has caused the rotation of the umbrae giving rise to the sigmoidal brightening.It is now widely accepted that flares derive their energy from the magnetic fields of the active regions and coronal levels are considered to be the flare sites. But still a satisfactory understanding of the flare processes has not been achieved because of the difficulties encountered to predict and estimate the probability of flare eruptions. The convection flows and vortices below the photosphere transport and concentrate magnetic field, which subsequently appear as active regions in the photosphere (Rust & Kumar 1994 and the references therein). Successive emergence of magnetic flux, twist the field, creating flare productive magnetic shear and has been studied by many authors (Sundara Ramanet al.1998 and the references therein). Hence, it is considered that the flare is powered by the energy stored in the twisted magnetic flux tubes (Kurokawa 1996 and the references therein). Rust & Kumar (1996) named the S-shaped bright coronal loops that appear in soft X-rays as ‘Sigmoids’ and concluded that this S-shaped distortion is due to the twist developed in the magnetic field lines. These transient sigmoidal features tell a great deal about unstable coronal magnetic fields, as these regions are more likely to be eruptive (Canfieldet al.1999). As the magnetic fields of the active regions are deep rooted in the Sun, the twist developed in the subphotospheric flux tube penetrates the photosphere and extends in to the corona. Thus, it is essentially favourable for the subphotospheric twist to unwind the twist and transmit it through the photosphere to the corona. Therefore, it becomes essential to make complete observational descriptions of a flare from the magnetic field changes that are taking place in different atmospheric levels of the Sun, to pin down the energy storage and conversion process that trigger the flare phenomena.

AbstractPrecise measurements of heliographic position of solar filaments were used for determination of the proper motion of solar filaments on the time-scale of days. The filaments have a tendency to make a shaking or waving of the external structure and to make a general movement of whole filament body, coinciding with the transport of the magnetic flux in the photosphere. The velocity scatter of individual measured points is about one order higher than the accuracy of measurements.

AbstractSolar filaments are discussed in terms of two contrasting paradigms. The standard paradigm is that filaments are formed by condensation of coronal plasma into magnetic fields that are twisted or dimpled as a consequence of motions of the fields’ sources in the photosphere. According to a new paradigm, filaments form in rising, twisted flux ropes and are a necessary intermediate stage in the transfer to interplanetary space of dynamo-generated magnetic flux. It is argued that the accumulation of magnetic helicity in filaments and their coronal surroundings leads to filament eruptions and coronal mass ejections. These ejections relieve the Sun of the flux generated by the dynamo and make way for the flux of the next cycle.

AbstractData on sunspot groups have been quite useful for obtaining clues to several processes on global and local scales within the sun which lead to emergence of toroidal magnetic flux above the sun’s surface. I present here a report on such studies carried out at Indian Institute of Astrophysics during the last decade or so.
