TitleOn modeling and simulation of coronal magnetic structures: coronal transients
AuthorsRamit Bhattacharyya
AbstractThe solar coronal transients are manifestations of magnetic reconnection in which the magnetic free energy gets converted into heat and accelerate charge particles along with a rearrangement of magnetic field lines. Exploration of magnetic structures related to these transients is a challenge in solar and space physics that requires a combined approach of multi-wavelength observations and data based numerical simulations. In absence of a reliable measurement of the coronal magnetic field, extrapolations provide a glimpse of the relevant magnetic structures and, can initiate data based MHD simulations to explore the physics of reconnection in a realistic scenario. In this presentation, the focus will be on the extrapolation of coronal magnetic field, its usage in MHD simulations and their overall synergy with multi-wavelength observations.
