Vorticity in the solar photosphere [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2010
Aims. We use magnetic and non-magnetic 3D numerical simulations of solar granulation and G-band radiative diagnostics from the resulting models to analyse the generation of small-scale vortex motions in the solar photosphere. Methods. Radiative MHD simulations of magnetoconvection are used to produce photospheric models.

The Effect of Flow and Magnetic Twist on Resonant Absorption of Slow MHD Waves in Magnetic Flux Tubes

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Observations show that there are twisted magnetic flux tubes and plasma flow throughout the solar atmosphere. The main purpose of this work is to obtain the damping rate of sausage modes in the presence of magnetic twist and plasma flow.

Waves in the solar photosphere [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2008
The solar photosphere is a partially ionized medium with collisions between electrons, various metallic ions and neutral hydrogen playing an important role in the momentum and energy transport in the medium. Furthermore, the number of neutral hydrogen atom could be as large as $10^{4}$ times the number of plasma particles in the lower photosphere.

Limitations and Biases in the Retrieval of the Polar Magnetic Field. I. The Role of the Magnetic Filling Factor in Milne–Eddington Inversions of Simulated Hinode/SP Data

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We study the extent to which Milne–Eddington inversions are able to retrieve and characterize the magnetic landscape of the solar poles from observations by the spectropolarimeter on board Hinode.

Inferring depth-dependent plasma motions from surface observations using the DeepVel neural network

open access: yesJournal of Space Weather and Space Climate, 2021
Coverage of plasma motions is limited to the line-of-sight component at the Sun’s surface. Multiple tracking and inversion methods were developed to infer the transverse motions from observational data.

Proper Orthogonal Decomposition of Solar Photospheric Motions

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2005
The spatio-temporal dynamics of the solar photosphere is studied by performing a Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) of line of sight velocity fields computed from high resolution data coming from the MDI/SOHO instrument. Using this technique, we are able to identify and characterize the different dynamical regimes acting in the system. Low frequency

MAGNETOHYDRODYNAMICS OF THE WEAKLY IONIZED SOLAR PHOTOSPHERE [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2012
We investigate the importance of ambipolar diffusion and Hall currents for high-resolution comprehensive ('realistic') photospheric simulations. To do so we extended the radiative magnetohydrodynamics code \emph{MURaM} to use the generalized Ohm's law under the assumption of local thermodynamic equilibrium.

Investigation of Phase Shift and Travel Time of Acoustic Waves in the Lower Solar Atmosphere Using Multiheight Velocities

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report and discuss the phase shift and phase travel time of low-frequency ( ν < 5.0 mHz) acoustic waves estimated within the photosphere and photosphere–chromosphere interface regions, utilizing multiheight velocities in the quiet Sun.

Simulated magnetic flows in the solar photosphere [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2015
Recent Sunrise/IMaX observations have revealed the existence of supersonic magnetic flows. Our aim is to determine the origin of such flows by using realistic MHD simulations. We simulate cancellation and emergence of magnetic flux through the solar photosphere. Our first numerical experiment starts with magnetic field of both polarities.
