[HTML][HTML] Coronal mass ejections: models and their observational basis

PF Chen - Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2011‏ - Springer
Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are the largest-scale eruptive phenomenon in the solar
system, expanding from active region-sized nonpotential magnetic structure to a much larger …

Solar force-free magnetic fields

T Wiegelmann, T Sakurai - Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2021‏ - Springer
The structure and dynamics of the solar corona is dominated by the magnetic field. In most
areas in the corona magnetic forces are so dominant that all non-magnetic forces such as …

Coronal loops: observations and modeling of confined plasma

F Reale - Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2014‏ - Springer
Coronal loops are the building blocks of the X-ray bright solar corona. They owe their
brightness to the dense confined plasma, and this review focuses on loops mostly as …

Decay of the coronal magnetic field can release sufficient energy to power a solar flare

GD Fleishman, DE Gary, B Chen, N Kuroda, S Yu… - Science, 2020‏ - science.org
Solar flares are powered by a rapid release of energy in the solar corona, thought to be
produced by the decay of the coronal magnetic field strength. Direct quantitative …

Formation of torus-unstable flux ropes and electric currents in erupting sigmoids

G Aulanier, T Török, P Démoulin… - The Astrophysical …, 2009‏ - iopscience.iop.org
We analyze the physical mechanisms that form a three-dimensional coronal flux rope and
later cause its eruption. This is achieved by a zero-β magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) …

Evolution of magnetic field and energy in a major eruptive active region based on SDO/HMI observation

X Sun, JT Hoeksema, Y Liu… - The Astrophysical …, 2012‏ - iopscience.iop.org
We report the evolution of the magnetic field and its energy in NOAA active region 11158
over five days based on a vector magnetogram series from the Helioseismic and Magnetic …

Flare-productive active regions

S Toriumi, H Wang - Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2019‏ - Springer
Strong solar flares and coronal mass ejections, here defined not only as the bursts of
electromagnetic radiation but as the entire process in which magnetic energy is released …

Magnetic field diagnostics in the solar upper atmosphere

J Trujillo Bueno… - Annual Review of …, 2022‏ - annualreviews.org
The magnetic field is the main driver of the activity in the solar upper atmosphere, but its
measurement is notoriously difficult. In order to determine the magnetic field in the …

Data-driven modeling of solar coronal magnetic field evolution and eruptions

C Jiang, X Feng, Y Guo, Q Hu - The Innovation, 2022‏ - cell.com
Magnetic fields play a fundamental role in the structure and dynamics of the solar corona. As
they are driven by their footpoint motions on the solar surface, which transport energy from …
