European Solar Physics Online Seminar Archive

Following an initiative by the University of Oslo the MPS will participate in the "European Solar Physics Online Seminar" series (ESPOS). Details can be found here: https://folk.uio.no/tiago/espos/
The aim of this video conference series is to promote ideas more widely with a specialized audience, and give some exposure to cutting-edge research for students and other young researchers that do not regularly travel to conferences. The ESPOS series is planned to take place every second Thursday at 11am.
Speaker: Jaroslav Dudík

ESPOS: Three dimensional magnetic reconnection: Theory and observations (Jaroslav Dudík)

ESPOS
In the recent decades, three-dimensional modelling of solar flares and eruptions has made a number of predictions that were subsequently indicated by high-resolution imaging observations. These include existence of magnetic reconnection geometries involving the erupting flux rope itself, which drifts as a result, and also the apparent slipping and slip-running motion of footpoints of individual reconnecting structures. In this talk, we will summarize the predictions of the MHD models as well as the corroborating evidence, with particular emphasis on recent observations of super-Alfvénic slippage of flare kernels.
