Three-dimensional Solutions of Magnetohydrodynamic Equationsfor Prominence Magnetic Support: Twisted Magnetic Flux Rope

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that it is possible to produce a configuration that consists of a twisted magnetic flux tube embedded in an overlaying, almost potential, arcade such that high electric currents (and therefore values of α) are confined to the inner twisted magnet flux rope.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fitting flux ropes to a global MHD solution: a comparison of techniques

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors apply five different fitting techniques to two hypothetical time series derived from MHD simulation results, for which no information, other than the time series, was provided, and infer the following: accuracy decreases with increasingly glancing encounters; Correct identification of the boundaries of the flux rope can be a significant limiter; and results from techniques that infer global morphology must be viewed with caution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Problems and Progress in Computing Three-Dimensional Coronal Active Region Magnetic Fields from Boundary Data

TL;DR: An overview of the whole process of reconstructing the coronal magnetic field from boundary data measured at the photosphere is presented in this paper, where the authors discuss the errors and uncertainties in the data and in data reduction process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Disruption of a helmet streamer by photospheric shear

TL;DR: In this paper, a two-dimensional (azimuthally symmetric) helmet streamer configuration was developed by computing solutions of the time-dependent magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations, and the evolution of the configuration when photospheric shearing motions are imposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Multi-Observatory Inter-Comparison of Line-of-Sight Synoptic Solar Magnetograms

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare synoptic maps from seven solar observatories (Stanford/WSO, NSO/KPVT, NNSO/SOLIS, NNOSO/GONG, SOHO/MDI, UCLA/MWO, and SDO/HMI) to identify consistencies and differences among them.
