磁场重联与等离子体波动之间存在显著的联系.其中准静态波动、激波和动力学阿尔芬波的本征模是磁重联结构的重要组成部分.而其它的高频波动,不仅能吸收粒子的自由能,还可以导致粒子的加热和反常电阻的产生.这些多尺度的波动过程揭示了磁重联中能量转换的多尺度性质.本文探讨了地球磁层磁重联过程中的各种等离子体波动,涵盖了动力学阿尔芬波、低混杂波、哨声波、静电孤波、离子声波以及电子尺度的高频静电波,并分析了它们在磁重联中的特性和作用.近期的研究成果表明,动力学阿尔芬波(kinetic Alfven wave, KAW)能够描述磁重联区域的微观结构,其中包括霍尔磁场、霍尔电场、平行电场、霍尔电流以及场向电流.在这一过程中,霍尔电场作用于离子,有助于提高重联速率.低混杂波主要在电流片的密度梯度较大处被激发,并对电子进行平行加热.而哨声波是由朗道共振和回旋共振机制驱动的.据当前研究所示,低混杂波和哨声波对于重联过程中的反常电阻效应的影响是次要的.静电孤波多在磁重联分界线区域出现,其对等离子体的加热效应仍需进一步研究.与此同时,关于高频静电波(例如高混杂波和电子伯恩斯坦波)的研究重点在于磁重联的扩散区,这些波被... 相似文献

用三维可压缩MHD数值模拟研究了在磁场重联过程中电子压力梯度项的效应研究结果发现在较高等离子体β,较小离子惯性尺度条件下,广义欧姆定理中压力梯度项在重联过程的作用不可忽略.在磁重联过程中,压力梯度项虽然没有明显改变磁场拓扑结构和重联速度,但它使电子和离子速度明显增大.由于在离子惯性尺度下,离子和电子运动解耦,电子是电流的主要载流子,所以场向电流也增大,并导致核心磁场明显增大.考虑到场向电流是磁层电离层耦合的一个重要因素,所以电子压力梯度项的引入加强了行星际磁场南向期间磁层电离层的耦合.电子压力梯度项还在重联区激发了波动,该波动可向重联区外传播. 相似文献

磁场重联是空间能量释放和转换的重要机制.静电孤立波(ESW)虽然在空间中有广泛观测,但在磁场重联附近少有直接观测,对它在磁场重联附近的特性了解甚少.通过Geotail卫星对一个磁场重联事件的观测,仔细分析了其边界层上观测到的静电孤立波的特性,并讨论了它对磁场重联的影响.研究表明,亚暴期间在磁尾发生磁场重联,重联区域的分形线附近观测到了大量的静电孤立波,其特性与在其他地方观测到的并没有显著差别,但具有更明显的非线性和孤立性的特征.它们对电子加速和能量耗散有促进作用,加速磁场重联的进程. 相似文献

The results of a three-dimensional MHD simulation and data obtained using specialized spacecraft made it possible to construct
an electrodynamic model of solar flares. A flare results from explosive magnetic reconnection in a current sheet above an
active region, and electrons accelerated in field-aligned currents cause hard X rays on the solar surface. In this review,
we considered works where the boundary and initial conditions on the photosphere were specified directly from the magnetic
maps, obtained by SOHO MDI in the preflare state, in order to simulate the formation of a current sheet. A numerical solution
of the complete set of MHD equations, performed using the new-generation PERESVET program, demonstrated the formation of several
current sheets before a series of flares. A comparison of the observed relativistic proton spectra and the simulated proton
acceleration along a magnetic field singular line made it possible to estimate the magnetic reconnection rate during a flare
(∼107 cm s−1). Great flares (of the X class) originate after an increase in the active region magnetic flux up to 1022 Mx. 相似文献

The first attempt at numerical MHD simulations of the appearance of several current sheets above an active region before a
series of elementary flares is described. Energy accumulates in the field of each sheet that can be released during one of
the flares. The computations started three days before the appearance of a series of flares, i.e., before the emergence of
a new magnetic flux in the active region. The initial (potential) magnetic field was calculated by solving the Laplace equation
with an oblique derivative. The boundary conditions on the photosphere were specified from maps of the measured magnetic field
in the active region for various instants of time. The Peresvet program solving the full system of MHD equations with dissipative
terms was used in the computations. An absolutely implicit scheme conservative relative to the magnetic flux was used. The
problem of properly choosing the size of the computational domain and finding the positions of singular magnetic field lines
is discussed. 相似文献

In the solar system, our Sun is Nature’s most efficient particle accelerator. In large solar flares and fast coronal mass ejections (CMEs), protons and heavy ions can be accelerated to over ~GeV/nucleon. Large flares and fast CMEs often occur together. However there are clues that different acceleration mechanisms exist in these two processes. In solar flares, particles are accelerated at magnetic reconnection sites and stochastic acceleration likely dominates. In comparison, at CME-driven shocks, diffusive shock acceleration dominates. Besides solar flares and CMEs, which are transient events, acceleration of particles has also been observed in other places in the solar system, including the solar wind termination shock, planetary bow shocks, and shocks bounding the Corotation Interaction Regions (CIRs). Understanding how particles are accelerated in these places has been a central topic of space physics. However, because observations of energetic particles are often made at spacecraft near the Earth, propagation of energetic particles in the solar wind smears out many distinct features of the acceleration process. The propagation of a charged particle in the solar wind closely relates to the turbulent electric field and magnetic field of the solar wind through particle-wave interaction. A correct interpretation of the observations therefore requires a thorough understanding of the solar wind turbulence. Conversely, one can deduce properties of the solar wind turbulence from energetic particle observations. In this article I briefly review some of the current state of knowledge of particle acceleration and transport in the inner heliosphere and discuss a few topics which may bear the key features to further understand the problem of particle acceleration and transport. 相似文献

The electrodynamic flare model is based on numerical 3D simulations with the real magnetic field of an active region. An energy
of ∼1032 erg necessary for a solar flare is shown to accumulate in the magnetic field of a coronal current sheet. The thermal X-ray
source in the corona results from plasma heating in the current sheet upon reconnection. The hard X-ray sources are located
on the solar surface at the loop foot-points. They are produced by the precipitation of electron beams accelerated in field-aligned
currents. Solar cosmic rays appear upon acceleration in the electric field along a singular magnetic X-type line. The generation
mechanism of the delayed cosmic-ray component is also discussed. 相似文献

Data on high-energy processes on the Sun are summarized. We refine the classification of flares and substantiate the view
that a coronal mass ejection and a flare proper are manifestations of the same common process, at least for the most powerful
events. Next, we analyze data on the acceleration of electrons (RHESSI, Mars Odyssey) and protons. The existence of two peaks
of hard X-ray emission spaced 10–20 min apart and the evolution of its spectra are shown to be indicative of two acceleration
episodes. We have analyzed the spectra of 172 proton increases identified with the ratio of the proton fluxes at energies
above 10 and 100 MeV near the Earth. These spectra turn out to be virtually the same for most of the large flares under favorable
conditions for the escape of particles from the corona and their propagation in the interplanetary space. This is an argument
for the invariance of the main features of efficient particle acceleration in powerful events. This process takes place at
the explosive phase of a flare and its source is located low, immediately above the chromosphere, in the region adjacent to
sunspots. There is a reason to believe that, in this case, a rapid simultaneous acceleration of electrons and protons takes
place with the capture of some fraction of the particles into magnetic traps. However, there exist a few events in which an
additional number of protons with energies as high as 10–30 MeV escape from the corona at the post-eruptive phase of flare
development. Analysis of these cases with softer particle spectra more likely suggests an additional particle acceleration
at coronal heights (about 30 000 km) than the facilitation of particle escape from magnetic traps. We estimate the contribution
from the proton flux at an energy above 10 MeV arising at the post-eruptive phase of a flare to the total particle flux at
the maximum of a proton increase and discuss possible particle acceleration mechanisms at significant coronal heights. 相似文献

For electron acceleration during solar flares, it is very important to determine the pitch-angle and energy dependences of the electron distribution function. At present, this cannot be done directly from observations. Therefore, it is necessary to perform a numerical simulation of the propagation of accelerated electrons in the magnetic field of the flare loop (loops) and calculate the X-ray and radio emissions. For the solar flare of November 10, 2002, we have obtained qualitative and quantitative agreements of modeled X-ray and radio maps with the RHESSI satellite and Nobeyama Radioheliograph data. We have determined the flare model parameters that agree with observations. The pitch-angle anisotropy of electrons determined by highly directional functions of the S(α) = cos8(α) type, the energy spectrum consist of two electron populations, the low-energy part of the spectrum up to an energy of break of 350 keV is characterized by a power law with the exponent δ1 = 2.7–2.9, and the energy spectrum is more rigid above 420 keV (δ2 = 2–2.3). 相似文献
