2.5D 辐射传递下的明亮环形 prominence
摘要
靠近 limb 观察到的太阳 prominence 常包括一条亮特性能, 从观察者的视角看,它沿着其与 underlying chromosphere 之间的界面运行。尽管提出了若干理想化模型来解释 underlying physics,但尚无更一般的做法。In this manuscript we demonstrate as a proof-of-concept the first steps in applying the Lightweaver radiative transfer framework's 2.5D extension to a `toy' model prominence + VAL3C chromosphere, inspired by recent 1.5D experiments that demonstrated a significant radiative chromosphere--prominence interaction. We find the radiative connection to be significant enough to enhance both the electron number density within the chromosphere, as well as its emergent intensity across a range of spectral lines in the vicinity of the filament absorption signature. Inclining the viewing angle from the vertical, we find these enhancements to become increasingly asymmetric and merge with a larger secondary enhancement sourced directly from the prominence underside. In wavelength, the enhancements are then found to be the largest in both magnitude and horizontal extent for the spectral line cores, decreasing into the line wings. Similar behaviour is found within new Chinese H Solar Explorer (CHASE)/H Imaging Spectrograph (HIS) observations, opening the door for subsequent statistical confirmations of the theoretical basis we develop here.
