Outline  Background  NLFFF Modeling of AR Flux Rope Insertion Method Data: SOHO/MDI, Hinode/SOT, KSO/H-alpha, Hinode/XRT  Observations of a C8.5 Flare in AR Data: Hinode/XRT, TRACE, RHESSI, MLSO/H-alpha  Interpretations and Conclusions

Background  Existing methods for reconstructing NLFFFs (non-linear force free fields) Most methods : extrapolating photospheric vector fields to the corona (Schijver et al. 2006). The method we adopted : “flux rope insertion method” (van Ballegooijen 2004; Bobra etal. 2008) which requires line of sight magnetograms. This method was tested by Bobra et al. 2008, and the model was constrained by TRACE observations.  What is the 3D pre-flare magnetic configuration? Where and how is the flare initiated?  In this work, we construct NLFFF models for the pre-flare state, and the model is constrained by multiple non-potential X-ray loop observed by XRT.

Table 1 The Average Deviations of the best-fit model field lines from the observed X-ray loops for various models with fixed Poloidal Flux (1e10 Mx/cm).

Observations of C8.5 Flare MLSO/H-alpha TRACE/171 XRT/Ti_poly  Filament Activation (23:30 UT) associated with the flare was seen in H-alpha and EUV, not X-ray.  Two-ribbon flare: unsheared-sheared-unsheared.

Light Curves of C8.5 Flare EUV flare starts about 20 minutes later than the X-ray (XRT and RHESSI) flare, Why?

Pre-EUV X-ray brightenings: Unsheared XRT RHESSI XRT TRACE RHESSI Spectral fitting suggests that the pre-EUV flare X-ray sources are mainly caused by thermal bremsstrahlung emission.

XRT 2005-May-02 23:09:24 UT Where the Flare Starts? Modeling Result The flare starts from outside boundary of the current layer (on the top of the flux rope), NOT within or under the flux rope. Loop 5

Interpretations and Conclusions (I)  For AR 10953, the axial flux of the model flux rope is well constrained (7e20±2e20 Mx) by the observed X-ray loops, while the poloidal flux has a larger range (1e9-1e11 Mx/cm). This result is consistent with the comparisons of observed and modeled photospheric vector magnetograms.  The axial flux in the flux rope is far away from the upper limit for eruption, which is consistent with the fact that no successful filament eruption occurred in this active region.

Interpretations and Conclusions (II)  The X-ray brightenings appears about 14 minutes earlier than the EUV flare associated with a filament activation, which may be caused by the localized coronal heating.  Unlike the strong-weak shear motion in most of the two-ribbon flares included in Su et al. 2007, this flare starts from unsheared brightenings, which may be explained as that the flare starts from the outside boundary of the current layer.
