Two successive partial mini-filament confined ejections [PDF]
Active region (AR) NOAA 11476 produced a series of confined plasma ejections, mostly accompanied by flares of X-ray class M, from 08 to 10 May 2012. The structure and evolution of the confined ejections resemble that of EUV surges; however, their origin ...

Mini-filaments – small-scale analogues of solar eruptive events? [PDF]
AbstractMini-filaments are a small-scale phenomenon of the solar chromosphere, which frequently occur across the entire disk (see e.g. Wang, Li, Denker, et al. 2000). They share a variety of characteristics with their larger-scale cousins and may serve as a proxy for more complex systems. They play an important role in the energy and mass supply to the

Prediction of Solar Eruptions Using Filament Metadata
Abstract We perform a statistical analysis of erupting and non-erupting solar filaments to determine the properties related to the eruption potential. In order to perform this study, we correlate filament eruptions documented in the Heliophysics Event Knowledgebase (HEK) with HEK filaments that have been grouped together using a ...

Causal Relationships between Eruptive Prominences and Coronal Mass Ejections [PDF]
A close association between eruptive prominences and CMEs, both slow and fast CMEs, was reported in many studies. Sometimes it is possible to follow the material motion starting from the prominence (filament) activation to the CME in the high corona ...

A new paradigm for solar filament eruptions [PDF]
This article discusses the formation, magnetic structure, and eruption of solar filaments in terms of two contrasting paradigms. The standard paradigm is that filaments are formed by condensation of plasma on coronal magnetic fields that are twisted or dimpled as a result of photospheric motions.

The role of filament activation in a solar eruption [PDF]
Observations show that the mutual relationship between filament eruptions and solar flares cannot be described in terms of an unique scenario. In some cases, the eruption of a filament appears to trigger a flare, while in others the observations are more consistent with magnetic reconnection that produces both the flare observational signatures (e.g ...

On the partial eruption of a bifurcated solar filament structure [PDF]
ABSTRACT The partial eruption of a filament channel with bifurcated substructures is investigated using data sets obtained from both ground-based and space-borne facilities. Small-scale flux reconnection/cancellation events in the region triggered the pile-up of ambient magnetic field, observed as bright extreme ultraviolet (EUV) loops ...

Eruptive and Quasi-Eruptive Disappearing Solar Filaments and Their Relationship with Coronal Activities [PDF]
Abstract By measuring the 3-D velocity fields of 35 disappearing filaments (Disparition Brusques: DBs) on the solar disk, we studied the causal relationship between the motions of $\mathrm{H}\alpha$ DBs and the associated coronal phenomena.

Mechanism of the Failed Eruption of an Intermediate Solar Filament
Abstract Solar filament eruptions can generate coronal mass ejections (CMEs), which are huge threats to space weather. Thus, we need to understand their underlying mechanisms. Although many authors have studied the mechanisms for several decades, we still do not fully understand in what conditions a filament can erupt to become a CME or ...

Relationship between eruptions of active-region filaments and associated flares and CMEs
To better understand the dynamical process of active-region filament eruptions and associated flares and CMEs, we carried out a statistical study of 120 events observed by BBSO, TRACE, and t(SOHO/EIT) from 1998 to 2007 and combined filament observations ...
