It is believed that such changes are related to the reconfig uration of magnetic field lines\, however\, the real origin is still uncle ar. I will present the analysis of 37 flares observed by the Solar Dynamic s Observatory (SDO). The characteristics of the magnetic field changes in the flare events are determined using HMI high-cadence vector magnetogram (135 s)\, whereas the ribbon properties are derived from co-aligned AIA 16 00 Å images. We find that pixels swept up by ribbons do not always exhibi t permanent changes in the field. However\, when they do\, ribbon emission typically occurs several minutes before the start of field changes. The c hanges in the properties of the field show no relation to the size of acti ve regions but are strongly related to the flare-ribbon properties. We fin d that the duration of permanent changes in the field is strongly coupled with the duration of the flare. Our results suggest that changes in photos pheric magnetic fields are caused by a combination of two scenarios: contr action of flare loops driven by magnetic reconnection and coronal implosio n.\n\nhttps://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/315/ LOCATION:Haus H\, Telegrafenberg URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/315/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:On diversity of spectral shapes of hydrogen Lyman lines and Mg II lines in a quiescent prominences DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T154000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T155500Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20240704T115555Z UID:indico-contribution-60-306@meetings.aip.de DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Pavol Schwartz (Astronomical Institute\, Slovak Acad emy of Sciences)\nA quiescent prominence was observed on October 22\, 2013 quasi-simultaneously and nearly co-spatially in the Lyman series of hydro gen by SoHO/SUMER and in the Mg II h&k lines by IRIS. Such spectroscopic o bservations comprising multiple lines offer an excellent opportunity for d iagnostics of prominence plasma and the dynamics of its fine structures. H owever\, it also invokes significant challenges when compared with synthet ic spectra provided by radiative transfer modelling. Only a few similar co ordinated datasets of Lyman and Mg II h&k observations were ever obtained in prominences. We present here the first spectroscopic analysis of this u nique dataset. Moreover\, for the first time\, we assess the influence of noise on the statistics of profile characteristics. We focus on the follow ing characteristics – the number of distinct peaks\, integrated line int ensity\, center-to-peak ratio describing the depth of the reversal of two- peaked profiles\, and the asymmetry of peaks. There occur many profiles of both Lyman and Mg II lines which except of two major peaks\, contain also lower peaks – hereafter called as minor peaks. Nature of these\, possib ly spurious minor peaks is uncertain. They may be either due to noise or v igorous dynamics of the prominence. We show that noise has a negligible ef fect on the integrated intensities of all lines but it significantly affec ts the classification of spectral profiles using the number of distinct pe aks\, the reversal depth and also the peak asymmetry. We also demonstrate that by taking into account an influence of noise\, we can assess which ch aracteristics of particular lines are suitable for diagnostics of differen t properties of prominence. For example\, we show that the minor peaks of the Lyman line profiles are mostly caused by noise\, which means that only the dominant peaks should be used for statistical analyses or comparisons with synthetic spectra. On the other hand\, for Mg II k&h\, distinction b etween multi-peaked profiles with low peaks and profiles with deep reversa ls lies mainly in the dynamics of multiple fine structures located along a line of sight. The complex\, multi-peaked profiles are observed in places where multiple fine structures with different line-of-sight velocities ar e crossing the line of sight while the profiles with deep reversals likely correspond to instances when we observe single fine structure or multiple fine structures but with similar line-of-sight velocities. Such results l ead to a conclusion that if we are interested in the diagnostics of dynami cs of prominence fine structures\, the best approach is to use a combinati on of profile asymmetry in the Lyman lines together with the complex profi les of Mg II h&k lines. On the other hand\, if we want to diagnose the tem perature and pressure of individual prominence fine structures\, we need t o focus on deeply reversed Mg II h&k line profiles in combination with the Lyman lines and to analyse the depth of central reversal and the integrat ed intensity.\n\nhttps://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/306/ LOCATION:Haus H\, Telegrafenberg URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/306/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Plasma thermalisation from wave damping seen in super-penumbral fi brils DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T152500Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T154000Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20240704T115555Z UID:indico-contribution-60-310@meetings.aip.de DESCRIPTION:Speakers: William Bate (Queen's University Belfast)\nThe Inter ferometric Bidimensional Spectrometer (IBIS) at the Dunn Solar Telescope ( DST) was employed to capture high spatial resolution spectral scans of a s unspot in the H-alpha line. These scans allowed for the examination of sup er-penumbral fibrils\, including their transverse motions both parallel an d perpendicular to the line of sight. Near ubiquitous transverse oscillati ons of the fibrils have been observed and statistics gathered on their pro perties\, which are consistent with previous investigations. Further exami nation of cases demonstrating well-resolved fibril oscillations were perfo rmed\, which allowed us to track their propagation velocities and associat ed energy flux along the length of the fibril. Additionally\, analysis of the H-alpha line width has been performed\, which is known to correlate wi th plasma temperature. This allowed for a unique investigation of whether the energy damped from the transverse fibril oscillations provides evidenc e of thermalisation of the local plasma. Here\, I will report on the energ y damping and associated fluctuations in the H-alpha line width\, which we believe is evidence of MHD wave dissipation in the form of plasma thermal isation.\n\nhttps://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/310/ LOCATION:Haus H\, Telegrafenberg URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/310/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Evidence of external reconnection between an erupting mini-filamen t and ambient loops observed by Solar Orbiter/EUI DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T151000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T152500Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20240704T115555Z UID:indico-contribution-60-320@meetings.aip.de DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Zhuofei Li (MPS)\nMini-filament eruptions are one of the most common small-scale transients in the solar atmosphere. They are small-scale analogs to solar filaments. They are associated with coronal j ets that represent transient\, collimated plasma ejections along open fiel ds or far-reaching coronal loops. One particular type is blowout jets. The se often come along with erupting loops or twisted filaments at the base o f the jets. Consequently they have a more dynamic base and also often a wi der spire than standart jets. Recently\, a mini-filament eruption model ha s been put forward\, in which a successful mini-filament eruption drives a blowout jet\, while a partial or failed mini-filament eruption causes a s tandard jet. During blowout jets\, many blobs have been observed and drawn much attention as they could provide evidence of the magnetic reconnectio n process\, because these blobs are odten identified with plasmaoids in th e current sheet. However\, it is still difficult to observationally clarif y the relation between the moving plasma blobs and magnetic reconnection. The clarification is mainly limited by the low spatio-temporal resolution of previous data. Here\, with a combination of 174 Å images at high spati al resolution and high cadence taken by the Extreme Ultraviolet Imager on board Solar Orbiter and images of the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly on boar d Solar Dynamics Observatory\, we investigate in detail an erupting mini-f ilament over a weak magnetic field region on 2022 March 4. During the erup tion\, two bright ribbons clearly appeared underneath the erupting mini-fi lament as it quickly ascended. Subsequently\, some dark materials blew out when the erupting mini-filament interacted with the outer ambient loops\, thus forming a blowout jet characterized by a widening spire. At the same time\, a chain of small bright blobs with diameters of 1–2 Mm are inter mittently expelled from the interaction region between the erupting mini-f ilament and ambient loops and propagated along the post-eruption loops tow ard the footpoints of the erupting fluxes at a speed of ~ 100 km/s. They h ave short lifetimes\, varying from 30 s to 90 s. They also caused a semi-c ircular brightening structure. We suggest that these fast-moving blobs are evidence for magnetic reconnection. We performed a differential emission measure (DEM) analysis and found that various brightenings show plasma tha t is heated during the mini-filament eruption\, e.g. two bright ribbons\, footpoints of the ambient loops\, and the interaction region. Based on the features aforementioned\, we suggest that the mini-filament eruption firs t experiences internal reconnection that occurs underneath the erupting mi ni-filament and then external reconnection between the mini-filament and t he ambient loops. The transfer of mass and magnetic flux from the erupting mini-filament to the ambient corona is mainly due to the external reconne ction.\n\nhttps://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/320/ LOCATION:Haus H\, Telegrafenberg URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/320/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:On the stability of large magnetic solar structures DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T145500Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T151000Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20240704T115555Z UID:indico-contribution-60-321@meetings.aip.de DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Jan Jurcak (Astronomical Institute of the CAS)\nWe w ill review the recent observational results that show the key role played by the vertical component of the magnetic field (B$_\\mathrm{ver}$) in the inhibition of convection in the solar photosphere. In sunspots\, only reg ions with B$_\\mathrm{ver}$ stronger than a critical value of approximatel y 1.8 kG (the critical value is dependent on the data used\, definition of the umbral boundary\, inversion scheme\, etc.) are stable against convect ion and the intensity boundaries of stable umbrae can be equally outlined by this critical B$_\\mathrm{ver}$. In regions with B$_\\mathrm{ver}$ weak er than the critical value\, more vigorous modes of magneto-convection tak e over. This behavior is observed during the formation of penumbra and lig ht bridges and during the decay of sunspots and pores. We will compare the se observations to analyses of sunspots simulations and to theoretical mod els describing the stability of overturning convection in the presence of magnetic fields and we will discuss the repercussion in the life cycle of magnetic structures.\n\nhttps://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/321 / LOCATION:Haus H\, Telegrafenberg URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/321/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Sunspot penumbral evolution: a puzzle under construction DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T143000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T145500Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20240704T115555Z UID:indico-contribution-60-358@meetings.aip.de DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Mariarita Murabito (INAF OACN)\nThe penumbra is an i ntriguing part of a sunspot where the coupling between magnetic field and plasma is characterized by peculiar physical conditions.

However\, a large fraction of flares\, especially on solar-type stars\, are confined flares. What are the differences in physical properties between confined and erup tive flares? For the first time\, we quantify thermodynamic and magnetic properties of hundreds confined and eruptive flares of GOES class C5.0 and above\, 480 flares total. We first analyze large flares of GOES class M1. 0 and above observed by the SDO\, 216 flares total\, including 103 eruptiv e and 113 confined flares\, from 2010 until 2016 April\; we then look at t he entire dataset above C5.0 of 480 flares. We compare GOES X-ray thermody namic flare properties\, including peak temperature and emission measure\, and active-region and flare-ribbon magnetic field properties\, including reconnected magnetic fluxes and peak reconnection rates. We find that conf ined and eruptive flares have similar distributions of reconnection flux. Confined flares\, however\, have larger peak magnetic reconnection rates\, are more compact\, and occur in larger active regions than eruptive flare s. These findings suggest that confined flares are caused by reconnection within more compact\, stronger\, lower lying magnetic-field regions in lar ger ARs that reorganizes smaller fractions of ARs. This reconnection proce eds at faster rates and ends earlier\, leading potentially to more efficie nt flare particle acceleration in confined flares.\n\nhttps://meetings.aip .de/event/24/contributions/308/ LOCATION:Haus H\, Telegrafenberg URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/308/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Detection of the Evershed flow by the application of the SOM techn ique DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T101500Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T103000Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20240704T115555Z UID:indico-contribution-60-314@meetings.aip.de DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Paolo Romano (INAF - Catania Astrophysical Observato ry)\nWe present the results obtained from applying the Self Organizing Map technique to a spectral dataset of monochromatic images acquired by the I nterferometric Bidimensional Spectropolarimeter at the Dunn Solar Telescop e\, along the Ca II 854.2 nm and Hα 656.28 nm lines. This technique allow ed us to segment the photospheric and chromospheric penumbra fine structur e\, revealing the presence of the Evershed flow in the chromosphere along the portions of the penumbral filaments near the umbra. In addition\, the flow velocity as a function of distance from the spot center in the periph eral regions of the super-penumbra was consistent with the inverse-Evershe d flow. These signatures\, along with slight differences in the chromosphe ric plasma velocities measured along the two spectral lines\, provided us with the opportunity to combine the Evershed and inverse-Evershed flows in the same context\, in accordance with the uncombed model of the sunspot p enumbra.\n\nhttps://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/314/ LOCATION:Haus H\, Telegrafenberg URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/314/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Sausage wave modes in small magnetic pores observed with Solar Orb iter/PHI DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T100000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T101500Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20240704T115555Z UID:indico-contribution-60-305@meetings.aip.de DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Shahin Jafarzadeh (Max Planck Institute for Solar Sy stem Research\, Germany))\nWe have exploited seeing-free and high-quality observations of several small magnetic pores from the High Resolution Tele scope (HRT) of the Polarimetric and Helioseismic Imager (PHI) on board the Solar Orbiter spacecraft\, during its first close perihelion in March 202 2 (at a distance of 0.5 au from the Sun). Only such small magnetic pores\, captured at stable observing conditions\, could manifest (large) area flu ctuations\, on the order of 30% variations\, that is an indication of (non -linear) fast sausage (surface) modes.

Spectropolarimetric observations of NOAA AR 127 76 from the GRIS@GREGOR instrument were analyzed. Atmospheric parameters w ere obtained from the deep photospheric Ca I 10839 Å line (VFISV inversio n code)\, the mostly photospheric Si I 10827 Å line (SIR inversion code) and the chromospheric He I 10830 Å triplet (HAZEL inversion code). \n\nIn the deepest atmospheric layers\, we find that the magnetic properties (in clination and field strength distribution) measured on the sunspot sector with fully fledged penumbra are similar to those measured on the sector wi thout penumbra. Yet\, in higher layers\, magnetic properties are different . In the region showing no penumbra\, almost vertical chromospheric magnet ic fields are observed. Additionally\, thin filamentary structures with a maximum width of 0.1 arcsec are seen in photospheric high-resolution TiO-b and images in this region. \n\nThe existence of a penumbra is found to be discriminated by the conditions in the chromosphere. This indicates that a chromospheric canopy is a necessary condition for the formation of a penu mbra. However\, our results demonstrate that inclined fields in the chromo spheric canopy are not needed for the development of inclined fields in th e photosphere. We question the `fallen-magnetic-flux-tubes' penumbra forma tion scenario and favor a scenario\, in which inclined fields emerge from below the surface and are blocked by the overlying chromospheric canopy.\n \nhttps://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/312/ LOCATION:Haus H\, Telegrafenberg URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/312/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Active region evolution – Tracking active regions from the near- Earth side to the solar far side (and back) DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T125500Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T131000Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20240704T115555Z UID:indico-contribution-60-313@meetings.aip.de DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Hanna Strecker (Instituto de Astrofísica de Andaluc ía ((IAA-CSIC) & Spanish Space Solar Physics Consortium)\nFor a long time \, the study of the evolution of active regions in the solar photosphere h as been limited by the transit time of the active regions over the solar d isk as seen from Earth. Since its launch in February 2020\, ESA/NASA's Sol ar Orbiter spacecraft provides us\, from time to time\, with the possibili ty to see the solar far side. The Polarimetric and Helioseismic Imager (SO /PHI)\, one of its ten instruments\, delivers data of the solar photospher e in intensity and vector magnetic field. In February 2021\, during Solar Orbiter’s first superior conjunction\, the full disk telescope of SO/PHI acquired the first polarimetric data of the photospheric solar far side. We combine this data with data from the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager ( HMI) flying on board NASA’s Solar Dynamic Observatory. This enables an a lmost 360º view of the Sun and allows\, for the first time\, the tracking of active regions over a full solar rotation almost without interruption\ , from the near-Earth side to the far side. We study the evolution of four active regions in intensity and LOS magnetograms while they rotate from t he near-Earth side\, seen by HMI\, to the solar far side\, into the field- of-view (FOV) seen by SO/PHI. Three of the active regions decay on the sol ar far side and do not show any signal in intensity when reaching the FOV of SO/PHI. One active region crosses the disk as seen from Earth while app earing to decay. However\, new flux emerges on the solar far side leading to the development of pores and a small sunspot before the region reaches the limb as seen in SO/PHI and reappears on the near-Earth side. We will p resent the longest almost uninterrupted study of the evolution of the magn etic field of active regions\, achieved so far. This demonstrates the uniq ueness of combining Solar Orbiter and near-Earth side observations to cont inuously study the evolution of active regions from their emergence to the ir decay.\n\nhttps://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/313/ LOCATION:Haus H\, Telegrafenberg URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/313/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Quantifying Systematic Biases in the Measurements of the Open Magn etic Flux DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T124000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T125500Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20240704T115555Z UID:indico-contribution-60-307@meetings.aip.de DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Ivan Milic (Leibniz Institute for Solar Physics (KIS ))\nOpen magnetic flux in the photosphere\, especially at the poles\, pres ents an important boundary condition for modeling the heliospheric field. The field extrapolated from polar observations is roughly 50% lower than t he in-situ measurements (“open flux problem”). Here we present our eff orts to characterize biases in the open flux inference and that way explai n the discrepancy above. We use a state-of-the-art plage-like MURaM MHD si mulation of the solar photosphere to model polarized spectra of magnetical ly sensitive Fe I 630 nm doublet lines\, observed by the Hinode SOT/SP ins trument. We mimic the realistic observation at the disk center and the pol e by calculating emergent intensity\, applying instrumental effects (spat ial and spectral PSF\, binning)\, and adding the photon noise. We then app ly different inversion codes built upon different physical assumptions to these synthetic observations and compare results to the original simulatio n.\n\nAt the disk center\, a significant fraction (20\, down to 50%) of op en flux gets lost for the telescopes with apertures smaller than 1m. At th e pole\, the magnetic field disambiguation becomes a critical part: the as sumption of the radial field underestimates flux by around 30% while the i nclusion of the telescope PSF further exacerbates the problem. The more in -depth investigation that accounts for stray light still yields significan t discrepancies between the original and inferred intrinsic properties of the magnetic field. These systematic errors in field diagnostics may be re duced by high-resolution or out-of-ecliptic observations.\n\nhttps://meeti ngs.aip.de/event/24/contributions/307/ LOCATION:Haus H\, Telegrafenberg URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/307/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Stereoscopic disambiguation of vector magnetograms: first applicat ions to HRT data DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T122500Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T124000Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20240704T115555Z UID:indico-contribution-60-304@meetings.aip.de DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Gherardo Valori (MPS - Max Planck Institute for Sola r System Research)\nSpectropolarimetric reconstructions of the photospheri c vector magnetic field are intrinsically limited by the 180-degree-ambigu ity in the orientation of the transverse component.

The outward flux of magnetic energy\, or Poynting flux\, is therefore important to understand in both qualitative and quantitative terms. It can be computed by taking a cross product of electric and magnetic fields\, a nd in ideal MHD conditions it can be expressed in terms of magnetic field and plasma velocity. There are existing estimates of Poynting flux in acti ve regions and plages\, but the quiet Sun (QS) remains a challenging targe t due to resolution effects and polarimetric noise. However\, with upcomin g DKIST capabilities\, these estimates will become more feasible than ever before.\n\nHere we present our findings from studying QS Poynting flux in Sunrise/IMaX observations and MURaM simulations. Since this problem has n ot been comprehensively approached before\, and due to the aforementioned challenges of QS observations\, we explore and evaluate multiple methods f or computing Poynting flux. For transverse velocities\, we try two inversi on methods – a classic correlation tracking approach FLCT and a neural n etwork based method DeepVel – and show DeepVel to be the more suitable m ethod in the context of small-scale QS flows. Further\, we investigate the effect of magnetic field azimuthal ambiguity on Poynting flux estimates\, and we describe a new method for azimuth disambiguation. Finally\, we use two methods for obtaining the electric field. The first method relies on idealized Ohm's law\, whereas the second is a state-of-the-art inductive e lectric field inversion method PDFI\\_SS.\n\nWe compare the resulting Poyn ting flux values with theoretical estimates for chromospheric and coronal energy losses and find that some\, but not all\, of Poynting flux estimate s are sufficient to match the energy losses. Using MURaM simulations\, we show that photospheric Poynting fluxes vary with optical depth\, and that there is an observational bias that results in underestimated Poynting flu xes due to unaccounted shear term contribution.\n\nhttps://meetings.aip.de /event/24/contributions/317/ LOCATION:Haus H\, Telegrafenberg URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/317/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Center-to-limb variation in Mg II intensities in quiet Sun and act ive regions from IRIS DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230510T070000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230510T071500Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20240704T115555Z UID:indico-contribution-60-318@meetings.aip.de DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Megha Anand (nter University Centre for Astronomy an d Astrophysics\, Post Bag-4\, Ganeshkhind\, Pune 411007\, India)\nThe sola r ultraviolet (UV) and extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiations which are majo r contributors to the solar spectral irradiance (SSI) below 4000 Å\, sig nificantly affect the composition and the thermal structure of the Earth's atmosphere. The Magnesium II core-to-wing ratio (also known as the Mg II index) is one of the best proxies for solar activity and UV-SSI variabilit y. To date\, the Mg II index has been studied\, assuming Sun-as-a-star usi ng low (11 Å) and medium spectral resolution (1 Å) data. On the other ha nd\, Mg II h and k line pairs being optically thick\, are highly sensitive to the thermodynamical properties of the line-forming region and the view ing angle. Therefore\, in this study\, we explore the center-to-limb varia tion (CLV) in the Mg II line and continuum intensities in various solar fe atures like quiet Sun (QS)\, plage\, inter-plage\, sunspot umbra\, and pen umbra using the high spatial and spectral resolution data from the Interfa ce Region Imaging Spectrometer (IRIS). Our study indicates that plages wit h the lowest magnetic field density show the highest limb darkening as opp osed to the QS\, whereas the umbra and penumbra show a combination of both limb darkening and brightening depending on their photospheric magnetic f ield densities. This would provide us an opportunity to understand the imp ortance of the spatially resolved Mg II index on the SSI studies.\n\nhttps ://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/318/ LOCATION:Haus H\, Telegrafenberg URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/318/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Study of the evolution of magnetic energy and helicity injection i n an active region with recurring eruptive events DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T081500Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T083000Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20240704T115555Z UID:indico-contribution-60-319@meetings.aip.de DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Marcelo López Fuentes (Instituto de Astronomía y F ísica del Espacio (CONICET-UBA))\nSolar events such as flares and coronal mass ejections are the most energetic phenomena affecting interplanetary space in timescales ranging from minutes to a few days. There has been\, i n recent years\, a strong interest in characterizing the processes that in ject magnetic energy and helicity in solar active regions (ARs) and the me chanisms that destabilize their magnetic structure leading to the energy r eleased during those events. We analyze the magnetic evolution of AR NOAA 11476 that produced a series of minifilament confined eruptions of the “ surge” type accompanied by M-class flares. In a previous work\, we found that these events are associated to the presence of a small rotating bipo le that emerged in the middle of the globally bipolar AR magnetic configur ation. The bipole rotation preceded and concurred in time with the observe d ejections. Magnetic flux cancellation is also identified along the polar ity inversion line of the bipole where the minifilaments were recurrently formed and ejected. Here we combine the analysis\, for the full AR and the rotating bipole\, of the evolution of a series of magnetic parameters com puted from SDO/HMI vector magnetograms with estimations of the magnetic en ergy and magnetic helicity injection obtained using the Differential Affin e Velocity Estimator for Vector Magnetograms (DAVE4VM) method. This proced ure is based on the determination\, from vector magnetograms\, of the affi ne velocity field constrained by the induction equation. Our results provi de a series of relations between the studied parameters that define proxie s of the magnetic evolution of the AR that\, eventually\, can be used as p ossible precursors of active events.\n\nhttps://meetings.aip.de/event/24/c ontributions/319/ LOCATION:Haus H\, Telegrafenberg URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/319/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Chromospheric horizontal propagating waves revealed by fast cadenc e imaging in Ca II K with DKIST’s Visible Broadband Imager DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T073000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T074500Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20240704T115555Z UID:indico-contribution-60-316@meetings.aip.de DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Catherine Fischer (National Solar Observatory)\nThe Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope is currently acquiring first science data as part of its Operations Commissioning Phase. High-resolution\, fast-cad ence imaging in the chromospheric Ca II K filter of the Visible Broadband Imager reveals signatures of bright arches emanating radially from the loc ations of G-band bright points. The G-band bright points denote small-scal e magnetic elements harboring strong magnetic fields (~kGauss). Comparison with 3-D simulations suggest that the traveling bright arches are acousti c waves or shock fronts\, triggered by the movements of magnetic elements. Inspecting several examples of the events we indeed see the photospheric bright points changing their appearance and position\, indicating either a horizontal movement\, perhaps swaying\, or rotation and seem to be the so urce location for the bright arches.\n\nhttps://meetings.aip.de/event/24/c ontributions/316/ LOCATION:Haus H\, Telegrafenberg URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/316/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Coronal voids and their magnetic nature DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T080000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T081500Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20240704T115555Z UID:indico-contribution-60-311@meetings.aip.de DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Jonathan David Nölke (Max Planck Institute for Sola r System Research)\nExtreme ultraviolet (EUV) observations of the quiet su n corona have revealed extended regions of reduced emission. These coronal voids are on average around 30% less intense than the quiet Sun and can h ave sizes corresponding to several supergranular cells. At least the large r of these voids can exist for many hours with their boundaries to the qui et Sun remaining more or less unchanged. The aim of our study is to unders tand what causes the reduced emission through an investigation of the unde rlying magnetic features in the photopshere. \n\nAt least two scenarios co uld explain why the voids appear dark: \n(1) The coronal voids could be ma gnetic structures that are (locally) open similar to coronal holes and app ear dark for the same reason as those do. (2) they could also be areas of lower (magnetic) heating due to lower magnetic field strength in the photo sphere below\, when compared to the typical quiet Sun.\n\nTo distinguish b etween the two scenarios\, we combine quiet Sun data from the high-resolut ion EUV-channel at 17.4 nm of the Extreme Ultraviolet Imager (EUI)\, showi ng coronal plasma close to 1 MK\, and magnetograms obtained with the high- resolution telescope of the Polarimetric and Helioseismic Imager (PHI)\, b oth onboard Solar Orbiter. \n\nOur results show the average unsigned magne tic field inside the voids to be reduced by $\\sim$ 25% with respect to th e entire observed quiet Sun region. Specifically\, there is little or no n etwork structure visible inside the coronal voids. Observed flux imbalance s are within the range of flux imbalances found in quiet Sun areas of simi lar size. Hence\, the flux imbalances we find in the voids are not signifi cant. Consequently\, it is highly unlikely that these voids are true minia ture versions of coronal holes.\nInstead\, we find that in general the uns igned magnetic flux in the photosphere below the voids is significantly sm aller than in the quiet Sun\, and the vast majority of stronger magnetic p atches is located outside the voids. The weaker photospheric field below t he voids will produce a Poynting flux smaller than in the surrounding quie t Sun. Consequently\, the coronal part above will be heated less and the v oids will appear darker in coronal emission.\n\nWe started a subsequent st udy into the temporal evolution of coronal voids on time scales from hours to several days. Our initial results for a time scale of a few hours indi cate that at least larger structures persist\, and their outer boundaries remain mostly unchanged during this time.\n\nhttps://meetings.aip.de/event /24/contributions/311/ LOCATION:Haus H\, Telegrafenberg URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/311/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Non-LTE formation of the widely-used Fe I 6173 Å line DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T074500Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T080000Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20240704T115555Z UID:indico-contribution-60-309@meetings.aip.de DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Smitha Narayanamurthy (Max Planck Institute for Sola r System Research)\nThe Fe I 6173 Å line is widely used to observe the so lar photosphere by many instruments. This includes the Helioseismic and Ma gnetic Imager (HMI) on board the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) and the Polarimetric and Helioseismic Imager on board the Solar Orbiter. During an alysis\, this line is often assumed to have formed in Local Thermodynamic Equilibrium (LTE) conditions. However\, the UV overionization effects acti ng on the iron species has a strong influence on the Fe I abundance\, whic h affects the strength of this line\, resulting in departures from LTE. By synthesizing the Stokes profiles from snapshot of a three-dimensional mag netohydrodynamic simulation of the solar photosphere\, we have carried out a detailed investigation on the nature and strength of the non-LTE (NLTE) effects. We find that both intensity and polarization profiles can be str ongly affected by the NLTE effects\, and that these effects survive even w hen the profiles are averaged spatially or sampled on a coarse wavelength grid such as that used by the SDO/HMI and other magnetographs. Based on th e nature of departures from LTE\, treating the 6173 Å line in LTE will li kely result in an overestimation of temperature and an underestimation of the magnetic field strength.\n\nhttps://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contribut ions/309/ LOCATION:Haus H\, Telegrafenberg URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/309/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Photospheric MHD simulations: From sub-granular scales to active r egions DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T070000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230509T073000Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20240704T115555Z UID:indico-contribution-60-362@meetings.aip.de DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Matthias Rempel (High Altitude Observatory\, Nationa l Center for Atmospheric Research)\nMore than 20 years ago most photospher ic MHD simulations focused primarily on small patches of granulation with moderate numerical resolution. Over the past 2 decades advances in computi ng infrastructure have enabled photospheric MHD simulations to cover most magnetic environments from quiet Sun to active Sun. In this talk I review these recent developments and focus primarily on simulations that cover th e extreme ends of the spectrum: (1) Small-scale dynamo simulations of quie t Sun magnetism and (2) Simulations of active region scales. (1) Recent re search (observations and modeling) supports the view that the origin of sm all-scale magnetism is mostly due to a small-scale dynamo that operates in dependently from the large-scale dynamo responsible for the solar cycle. R ecent simulations have shown that the saturation field strength and struct ure of the resulting magnetic field in the photosphere depend critically o n the contributions from deep and shallow recirculation within the strongl y stratified convection zone. Therefore\, the small-scale dynamo is not re stricted to the photosphere and involves a wide range of scales. Recent re search suggests that small-scale magnetic fields may play a critical role for convection zone dynamics. Outstanding questions concern the role of th e magnetic Prandtl number\, which will require in the future simulations w ith better resolution (\n\nhttps://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/ 362/ LOCATION:Haus H\, Telegrafenberg URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/362/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
