Filament eruptions are magnetically driven violent explosions commonly observed on the Sun and late-type stars, sometimes leading to monster coronal mass ejections that directly affect the nearby planets' environments. More than a century…
Magnetic flux emergence is traditionally considered a key trigger of solar filament eruptions; however, its role in suppressing filament eruptions remains less understood. Using multi-wavelength observations from the Solar Dynamics…
Utilizing observations from the New Vacuum Solar Telescope (NVST), Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), and Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory-Ahead (STEREO-A), we investigate the event from two distinct observational perspectives: on the…
We report two sympathetic solar eruptions, including a partial and a full flux rope eruption in a quadrupolar magnetic region, where a large and a small filament resided above the middle and the east neutral lines respectively. The large…
A filament, a dense cool plasma supported by the magnetic fields in the solar corona, often becomes unstable and erupts. It is empirically known that the filament often demonstrates some activations such as a turbulent motion prior to…
We study a sequence of eruptive events including filament eruption, a GOES C4.3 flare and a coronal mass ejection. We aim to identify the possible trigger(s) and precursor(s) of the filament destabilisation; investigate flare kernel…
Solar eruptions are due to a sudden destabilization of force-free coronal magnetic fields. But the detailed mechanisms which can bring the corona towards an eruptive stage, then trigger and drive the eruption, and finally make it explosive,…
We present observations of a failed eruption of a magnetic flux rope recorded during the M6.2 flare of 14 July 2004. The observations were mainly made with TRACE 171 {\AA} and 1600 {\AA} filters. The flare was accompanied by a…
It has been revealed that the magnetic topology in the solar atmosphere displays hemispheric preference, i.e., negative/positive helicity in the northern/southern hemisphere, respectively. However, the strength of the hemispheric rule and…
Magnetic flux ropes are the centerpiece of solar eruptions. Direct measurements for the magnetic field of flux ropes are crucial for understanding the triggering and energy release processes, yet they remain heretofore elusive. Here we…
We studied the background field for 60 two-ribbon flares of M-and-above classes during 2011--2015. These flares are categorized into two groups, i.e., \emph{eruptive} and \emph{confined} flares, based on whether a flare is associated with a…
Coronal implosions - the convergence motion of plasmas and entrained magnetic field in the corona due to a reduction in magnetic pressure - can help to locate and track sites of magnetic energy release or redistribution during solar flares…
This paper presents an improved MHD modeling of the confined filament eruption in solar active region NOAA~9957 on 2002 May~27 by extending the parametric studies of the event in Torok & Kliem 2005 and Hassanin & Kliem 2016. Here the…
We present the observation of a major solar eruption that is associated with fast sunspot rotation. The event includes a sigmoidal filament eruption, a coronal mass ejection, and a GOES X2.1 flare from NOAA active region 11283. The filament…
The background field is assumed to play prime role in the erupting structures like prominences. In the flux rope models, the critical decay index ($n_c$) is a measure of the rate at which background field intensity decreases with height…
Filament eruptions often lead to coronal mass ejections (CMEs), which can affect critical technological systems in space and on the ground when they interact with the geo-magnetosphere in high speeds. Therefore, it is an important issue to…
The magnetic breakout model has been widely used to explain solar eruptive activities. Here, we apply it to explain successive filament eruptions occurred in a quadrupolar magnetic source region. Based on the high temporal and spatial…
Solar eruptions are sudden ejections of coronal mass and magnetic fields accompanied by intense energy release. The eruptive structure does not always erupt successfully, but sometimes fails to escape the Sun after initiation. The failure…
Filament eruptions often result in flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs). Most studies attribute the filament eruptions to their instabilities or magnetic reconnection. In this study, we report a unique observation of a filament eruption…
We study a filament eruption, two-ribbon flare, and coronal mass ejection (CME) that occurred in Active Region NOAA 10898 on 6 July 2006. The filament was located South of a strong sunspot that dominated the region. In the evolution leading…
