SHINE: Linking Flare Radiation to the Dynamics of Coronal Mass Ejections

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

A coupled model which accounts for the large-scale dynamics of a solar coronal mass ejection (CME), and the small-scale energetics of the radiation from associated flaring loop-like structures will be developed. The conventional ad hoc heating function usually applied to the loops will be replaced with an analytical model based on parameters determined from the onset and initial evolution of the CME. This effort makes it possible to relate the temperature and dynamics of flare loops to the propagation and evolution of CMEs. Because it will have to account simultaneously for both the CME and flare observations, this coupled model will be severely constrained and potentially calibrated by solar observations. If the model turns out to be successful in this regard, it could be used to forecast the properties of the CMEs, e.g., their speed and the strength of the embedded magnetic field) from the characteristics of the associated flare radiation.
