1. NLFFF Solar and Model Results J.McTiernan NLFFF workshop 5-jun-2006

3. Magnetofrictional (Aad_model) Potential NLFFF

4. Vertical field lines? I am not so sure and think that this is due to not setting /flux_balance in fff.pro. If this slide is here on 5-jun, then the new extrapolation hasn’t finished.

5. Magnetofrictional (cont.) 385x385x71 array, variable grid spacing in Z only. Fortran -- 4.5 hours on 2.4 GHz 32 bit machine, IDL --11 hours on 3.2 GHz 64 bit machine.

6. JxB/(B 2 Δx) vs. z divB/(BΔx) vs. z Nlfff vs. pfield vector-cauchy (0.8 at z=0) Nlfff vs. pfield vector-mean-error

7. Solar Model Potential (Green’s function) NLFFF

8. Solar Model closer view Potential (Green’s function) NLFFF

9. Solar Model even closer view Potential (Green’s function) NLFFF

10. JxB/(B 2 Δx) vs. z divB/(BΔx) vs. z Nlfff vs. pfield vector-cauchy (0.60 at z=0) Nlfff vs. pfield vector-mean-error

11. Solar (cont.) 231x245x61 array, variable grid spacing in Z only. Fortran – 15 minutes on 3.2 GHz 64 bit IDL – 2 hours on 3.2 GHz 64 bit 231x245x231 array, with uniform grid took 36 minutes on 3.2 GHz 64 bit (Fortran version, the IDL version ran out of memory…) (Greens function potential field took 10 hours!)

12. The solar model only is non-potential for a short distance from the bottom boundary, this is typical for real data But not necessarily for model data. For model data, the non-potentiality reaches much higher. This is true even if noise is added. (still testing this…)
