TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss NLFFF modeling of NOAA Active Region 10953 using Hinode/SOT-SP, Hinode-XRT, STEREO/SECCHI-EUVI, and SOHO/MDI observations, and in the process illustrate three such issues.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored the multiscale properties of a number of evolving active regions using magnetograms from the Michelson Doppler Imager (MDI) on the SOHO.

TL;DR: In this article, the photospheric magnetic complexity is used to predict solar flares and understand the physics of the magnetic field in the corona, and the magnetic energy spectrum and multifractal spectrum are highlighted as two possible approaches to this.

TL;DR: In this article, a 2D continuous wavelet technique was used to investigate the multiscale structure of an evolving active region using magnetograms obtained by the Michelson Doppler Imager (MDI) onboard the SOHO.

TL;DR: In this article, a two-dimensional wavelet transform modulus maxima (WTMM) method was used to study the multifractal properties of active region photospheric magnetic fields, and it was shown that prior to the onset of solar flares, the magnetic field undergoes restructuring as Dirac-like features (with a Holder exponent, h = −1) coalesce to form step functions (where h = 0).
