The Making of Delta Sunspots

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal
We explore what fraction of delta sunspots with a sharp polarity inversion line (PIL) in photospheric magnetograms are produced by a writhe kink in an emerging twisted flux rope.

Interactions between nested sunspots. 1: The formation and breakup of a delta-type sunspot [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 1994
We investigate a nest of sunspots in which three ordinary bipolar pairs of sunspots are aligned collinearly. The usual spreading action of the growing regions brings two spots of leading polarity together (p-p collision) and forces the leading and trailing spots of the two interior regions to overlap inot a single penumbra (p-f collision), thus forming

Spatiotemporal pattern variations of daily precipitation concentration and their relationship with possible causes in the Yangtze River Delta, China

open access: yesJournal of Water and Climate Change, 2022
Understanding the spatiotemporal pattern of precipitation concentration is important in the water cycle under changing environments. In this study, the daily precipitation concentration index in the Yangtze River Delta in China is calculated based on the

The configuration and failed eruption of a complex magnetic flux rope above aδsunspot region [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2021
Aims.We aim to investigate the configuration of a complex flux rope above theδsunspot region in the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration AR 11515 and its eruptive expansion during a confined M5.3-class flare.Methods.We studied the formation of theδsunspot using the continuum intensity images and photospheric vector magnetograms provided by ...

Observations of Twist, Current Helicity, and Writhe in the Magnetic Knots of δ-sunspots Consistent with the Kink Instability of a Highly Twisted Flux Rope

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We measure current helicity ( H _r ^c ) as well as proxies for twist ( α _r ) and writhe ( W ) in the isolated magnetic knots of three delta ( δ )-sunspots and report that the observations are consistent with a kink instability acting on a highly twisted

Formation of superstrong horizontal magnetic field in delta-type sunspot in radiation magnetohydrodynamic simulations [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020
ABSTRACT We perform a series of radiative magnetohydrodynamic simulations to understand the amplification mechanism of the exceptionally strong horizontal magnetic field in delta-type sunspots. In the simulations, we succeed in reproducing the delta-type sunspot and resulting strong magnetic field exceeding 6000 G in a light bridge ...

Large Photospheric Doppler Shift in Solar Active Region 12673. I. Field-aligned Flows

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Delta ( δ ) sunspots sometimes host fast photospheric flows along the central magnetic polarity inversion line (PIL). Here we study the strong Doppler shift signature in the central penumbral light bridge of solar active region NOAA 12673.

Evolution and Flare Activity of δ $\delta$ -Sunspots in Cycle 23 [PDF]

open access: yesSolar Physics, 2015
The emergence and magnetic evolution of solar active regions (ARs) of beta-gamma-delta type, which are known to be highly flare-productive, were studied with the SOHO/MDI data in Cycle 23. We selected 31 ARs that can be observed from their birth phase, as unbiased samples for our study.
