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

The time structure and energy spectrum evolution of the X-ray emission of solar flares, observed by the IRIS spectrometer onboard the CORONAS-F spacecraft, are investigated. It has been found out that one or two quasi-periodic components with periods of 1–20 s, which are absent in the background preflare emission, appear in the flare soft X rays. It has been indicated that the variation in the shape of the energetic spectra of the C-class flare hard X rays reflects the evolution of the accelerated electron distribution function.  相似文献

The kinetics of beam electron precipitation from the top of a loop into the solar atmosphere with density gradients and an increasing magnetic field have been generally described. The Fokker-Planck equations are solved with regard to Coulomb collisions and the effect of the electric field induced by this beam. The photon spectra and polarization degree in hard X-ray (10–300 keV) and microwave (1–80 GHz) emissions are simulated under different assumptions regarding the beam electron distribution function. The simulation results are compared with the flare observations on March 10, 2001, and July 23, 2002, visible at different position angles. It has been indicated that the coincidence of the theoretical photon spectra with simultaneous observations of the hard X-ray and microwave emissions of these flares is the best for models that not only take into account collisions, but also the electric field induced by electron fluxes propagating in flare loops with very weakly or moderately converging magnetic fields.  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

The work is devoted to the simulation of recently discovered hard X-ray and gamma radiation sources localized near the top of solar flare loops. The calculations were performed in the context of a model of a flare magnetic loop inhomogeneous with respect to the magnetic field. Two cases of injection were considered: isotropic and anisotropic along the loop axis. The distributions of electrons along the loop are found by solving the nonstationary relativistic kinetic equation in the Fokker-Planck form. Based on the calculated electron distribution functions, the spatial brightness distribution of hard X-ray and gamma radiation has been calculated. Radiation characteristics are compared for different sets of injection parameters.  相似文献

An extensive series of incoherent scatter studies of the ionospheric D-region was carried out at the Arecibo radar facility during 1978 and 1979. They included several full-day sequences of electron density measurements over a range of altitudes, and also included a sequence during the serendipitous occurrence of a large solar flare. For the solar flare event simultaneous data on solar X-ray fluxes in several wavelength bands were available from the GOES-2 and ISEE-3 satellites. In the course of development of a large ionospheric computer model at Los Alamos we have used the solar flare data as a reality check. The solar X-ray flux data were used as inputs for computing ionization rates. The model computer includes 999 chemical reactions, and also includes diffusion and transport processes. In the course of the flare studies we used the data comparisons to adjust the values of three chemical rate coefficients that were poorly known. With those adjustments the model computations fitted the data quite well. Subsequent to the flare analysis we have been using the same model with some minor updates to compute the expected diurnal variations of the ambient D-region under conditions chosen to match those existing at the times of the incoherent scatter measurements. Comparisons of the computations and the data will be shown, and the relative importance of the several separate ionization processes will be discussed. We also compare model results with experimental data on concentrations of NO.  相似文献

We analyzed unique observations of two flare events at frequencies of 93 and 140 GHz. The observations were carried out with an RT-7.5 radiotelescope at the Bauman State Technical University (Moscow) using the method of continuous active region tracking with spatial resolutions of 2.5 (at a frequency of 93 GHz) and 1.5 arc-minutes (at 140 GHz). The light curves of the bursts were analyzed and compared with the time profiles of soft and hard X-ray emission obtained by the GOES and RHESSI spacecraft. The radio delete this word flux density spectra were plotted. It was found that the radiation flux at a frequency of 140 GHz exceeded the flux at 93 GHz. This constitutes a new independent confirmation of the presence of a subterahertz flare component, the appearance of which may be associated with the thermal radiation of the hot plasma at the base of flare loops.  相似文献

A superfine time structure has been detected recently via hard X-ray satellite observations during solar flares. Some pulses are hundreds of milliseconds in length. Time series are sharply nonstationary sequences of overlapping pulses. We interpreted a similar time structure in a model of the nonstationary kinetics of accelerated electron beams. In this work, we present calculation results of the degree of polarization of the hard X rays of solar flares with millisecond pulses. The dependence of the polarization degree on the plasma concentration, radiation energy, and the observation angle has been derived from calculations with the thick-target nonstationary kinetics model for rectangular and triangular individual pulses of accelerated electrons in the region of injection with the angular dependence cos2n θ. It is shown that the degree of polarization does not exceed 78% and decreases down to 50–65% 20 s after the beginning of the injection.  相似文献

This paper reports the obtained analysis data on the spatio-temporal evolution of sources of microwave and hard X-ray pulsations for the SOL2011-06-07T06:16 event based on the observation data of the RHESSI spectrometer and the Nobeyama radioheliograph. The position of the considered pulsation sources changes from one pulsation to another. The motion of the X-ray sources is predominantly longitudinal in nature in relation to the inversion line of the magnetic polarity. The obtained analysis data on the evolution of X-ray sources are in good agreement with the results of the radio image analysis. The radio brightness center at 34 GHz changes its position from one pulsation to another along the inversion line of the magnetic polarity throughout the burst. According to the AIA/SDO telescope data, the flare region images in the ultraviolet range demonstrate a well-defined eruption of the magnetic flux rope. The flare energy release can likely be triggered by the erupting magnetic flux rope; the successive interaction of different parts of it with different loops of the surrounding magnetic arcade can result in their successive “ignition” and, as a consequence, lead to the observed changes in the position of X-ray and microwave sources from one pulsation to another.  相似文献

Based on observations of electromagnetic radiation, a concept of thermal solar flares has been proposed. The absence of hard X-ray emission implies no accelerated electrons. This fact is the basis of the proposed concept of thermal flares. Since the acceleration rate should not exceed the electron energy loss rate, plasma density in the acceleration range must be at least 1011 cm?3. The temperature of plasma emitting in the soft X-ray range is of the order of 107 K. In the simplified problem of heated plasma hydrodynamics, we calculated the temperature profiles and their changes over time and by coordinate. The emission measure values determined from observations of the soft X-ray emission of flares is of the order of 1045 cm?3. The geometry of the source is an axial symmetric straight cylinder with a section of 1016 cm2 and an axial coordinate determined by the depth of plasma heating. Time profiles of soft X-ray emission were calculated for different sources of plasma heating, which were simulated using the Gaussian distribution law with respect to the coordinate and time. We have considered two modes of plasma heating: single (in time) and multipulse modes with different pulse intervals. The dynamics of plasma heating and cooling was shown to control the experimentally observed time profiles of soft X-ray emission. A comparison of numerical results with observational data allows us to confirm the implications of the proposed concept of thermal flares and, in addition, to perform diagnostics of plasma parameters in the emission source.  相似文献

The challenges of ‘standard’ model of solar flares motivated by new observations with the spacecrafts and ground-based telescopes are presented. The most important problems are in situ heating of photospheric and chromospheric loop footpoints up to the coronal temperatures without precipitating particle beams accelerated in the corona, and the sunquakes which are unlikely to be explained by the impact of highenergy particles producing hard X-ray emission. There is also the long-standing ‘number problem’ in the physics of solar flares. It is shown that modern observations favored an important role of the electric currents in the energy release processes in the low solar atmosphere. Particle acceleration mechanism in the electric fields driven by the magnetic Rayleigh-Taylor instability in the chromosphere is proposed. The electric current value I ≥ 1010 A, needed for the excitation of super-Dreicer electric fields in the chromosphere is determined. It is shown that both Joule dissipation of the electric currents and the particles accelerated in the chromosphere can be responsible for in situ heating of the low solar atmosphere. Alternative model of the solar flare based on the analogy between the flaring loop and an equivalent electric circuit which is good tool for the electric current diagnostics is presented. Interaction of a current-carrying loop with the partially-ionized plasma of prominence in the context of particle acceleration is considered. The role of plasma radiation mechanism in the sub-THz emission from the chromosphere is discussed.  相似文献

Giant X-ray events (>X17) in the 23rd solar cycle (October 28 and November 4, 2003, and September 7, 2005) are considered, which were almost completely observed in hard X rays (>150 keV) from the INTEGRAL satellite and partly from the RHESSI satellite. These events are compared with two events completely observed from the RHESSI satellite (X8.2 on November 2, 2003, and X7.1 on January 20, 2005). Time profiles of the plasma temperature, calculated from the GOES data on soft X rays during these events, have similar structures. This allowed us to choose a zero time point in each event and compare the dynamics of their evolution. Nonthermal radiation began approximately 10 min before the zero time point (preflare phase). During about 20 min after the zero point, bursts of nonthermal radiation were observed in all the three events, which pointed to several episodes of electron acceleration with variable spectra and plasma heating with different efficiency. It is shown that giant events are characterized by a large emission measure and a relatively low temperature of the flare plasma but not intensive acceleration processes. Observations of γ radiation from the decay of π0-mesons show that protons are accelerated to relativistic energies 4 min after the chosen zero point.  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 correlation between the pulsed and smooth components of ultraviolet radiation and hard X-rays from solar flares has been interpreted on the basis of the time behavior of the energy flux penetrating from the magnetic field reconnection region to the boundary of the heated region. It has been shown that the time behavior of the primary flare energy flux is easily reconstructed from the time profile of the intensity of hard X-rays, and the time profile of the intensity of ultraviolet radiation represents the release of the flare energy in the flare transient layer. The smooth or pulsed component of the ultraviolet radiation depends on the form of the primary energy release. Information on the dynamics of the heating process and the formation and equalization of the gas pressure in the flare transient layer has been obtained from the observed temperature dependence of the emission measure. The described scheme explains the set of flare phenomena and the correlation between hard X-rays with pulsed ultraviolet bursts.  相似文献

The influence of the spectral nature and position on the solar disk of solar flares related to the production of magnetic effects on earth (from now on, sfe) over a more than 30-year period has been studied. Regarding the spectral issue, we found that the probability of a flare to produce sfe depends on the spectral band in which we observe it, being higher when the flare is important both in Hα and X-ray emissions. On the other hand, Hα and X-ray emissions have been considered in many different divisions of the solar surface and their effectiveness on sfe production have been compared. We found that there is not any privileged region on the solar disk for sfe production. These results end with the controversy generated by distinct conclusions obtained in classical studies on the subject.  相似文献

The observations of active region (AR) NOAA 10792 in the Ca II 8498 ? line with an ATB-1 solar telescope at the Sternberg State Astronomical Institute, Moscow State University (SSAI MSU) on July 30, 2005, are illustrated, and the events are analyzed using the data obtained on spacecraft. Three flares and accompanying coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are considered. It has been indicated that the beginning of the first compact CME lagged behind the flare onset by 3 min. Plasma ascended with acceleration that reached 0.4 km/s2 at the flare maximum. The matter was also apparently accelerated after the flare maximum, since an ejection could only appear at the edge of the occulting C 2 LASCO coronograph disk at 0557 UT when acceleration is about 0.5 km/s2. The second CME (of the halo type) leaded the beginning of the corresponding flare.  相似文献

Field variations in the region of the eruptive event on June 7, 2011 are studied based on vector measurements of the photospheric magnetic field by the SDO/HMI instrument. Variations of the modulus (B), the radial (Br) and the transverse (Bt) components of the magnetic induction, and the inclination angle (α) of the field lines to the radial direction from the center of the Sun are analyzed. It is found that, in the part of the flare region near the polarity inversion line (PIL) after the onset of the flare, the magnitude and the transverse component of the magnetic induction as well as the angles α abruptly increase. During the slow rise of filament near its channel, the inclination angles of the field lines decrease. It is shown that diverging flare ribbons are above the regions of the photosphere with local maxima of the field modulus and with deep minima of the inclination angles of the field lines at all stages of their existence over their entire length with the exception of small areas. It is established that the azimuth decreases after the onset of the flare near the PIL of the photospheric magnetic field, which means an increase in the shear. On the contrary, at a distance from the PIL there is a slight decrease in the shear.

The analysis of observations of large solar flares made it possible to propose a hypothesis on existence of a skin-layer in magnetic flux ropes of coronal mass ejections. On the assumption that the Bohm coefficient determines the diffusion of magnetic field, an estimate of the skin-layer thickness of ~106 cm is obtained. According to the hypothesis, the electric field of ~0.01–0.1 V/cm, having the nonzero component along the magnetic field of flux rope, arises for ~5 min in the surface layer of the eruptive flux rope during its ejection into the upper corona. The particle acceleration by the electric field to the energies of ~100 MeV/nucleon in the skin-layer of the flux rope leads to their precipitation along field lines to footpoints of the flux rope. The skin-layer presence induces helical or oval chromospheric emission at the ends of flare ribbons. The emission may be accompanied by hard X-ray radiation and by the production of gamma-ray line at the energy of 2.223 MeV (neutron capture line in the photosphere). The magnetic reconnection in the corona leads to a shift of the skin-layer of flux rope across the magnetic field. The area of precipitation of accelerated particles at the flux-rope footpoints expands in this case from the inside outward. This effect is traced in the chromosphere and in the transient region as the expanding helical emission structures. If the emission extends to the spot, a certain fraction of accelerated particles may be reflected from the magnetic barrier (in the magnetic field of the spot). In the case of exit into the interplanetary space, these particles may be recorded in the Earth’s orbit as solar proton events.  相似文献

The oscillations with a period of about 6 and 12 s in the nonthermal radiation of a solar flare occurred on November 5, 1992, are identified. The time-translated profiles of hard X-ray and microwave radiation flux are characterized by an anticorrelation. The specific features of the radiation fine time structure are interpreted using the model of the coronal magnetic mirror where fast magnetoacoustic modes are excited.  相似文献
