The relative magnetic helicity is a quantity that is often used to describe the level of entanglement of non-isolated magnetic fields, such as the magnetic field of solar active regions.The aim of this paper is to investigate how different…
Identifying universal, topology-independent thresholds in the coronal magnetic fields at onset of solar eruptions is crucial for physics-based prediction of eruptions. To this end, we systematically analyze the evolution of magnetic energy…
Relative magnetic helicity is a gauge invariant quantity suitable for the study of the magnetic helicity content of heliospheric plasmas. Relative magnetic helicity can be decomposed uniquely into two gauge invariant quantities, the…
Based on a decomposition of the magnetic field into potential and nonpotential components, magnetic energy and relative helicity can both also be decomposed into two quantities: potential and free energies, and volume-threading and…
We compare the coronal magnetic energy and helicity of two solar active regions (ARs), prolific in major eruptive (AR~11158) and confined (AR~12192) flaring, and analyze the potential of deduced proxies to forecast upcoming flares. Based on…
Using a recently proposed nonlinear force-free method designed for single vector magnetograms of solar active regions we calculate the instantaneous free magnetic energy and relative magnetic helicity budgets in 162 vector magnetograms…
Magnetic helicity has the remarkable property of being a conserved quantity of ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). Therefore, it could be used as an effective tracer of the magnetic field evolution of magnetized plasmas. Theoretical…
We investigate which scalar quantity or quantities can best predict the loss of equilibrium and subsequent eruption of magnetic flux ropes in the solar corona. Our models are initialized with a potential magnetic arcade, which is then…
While free/non-potential magnetic energy is a necessary element of any active phenomenon in the solar corona, its role as a marker of the trigger of eruptive process remains elusive. Based on the unique decomposition of the magnetic field…
Magnetic helicity is a conserved quantity of ideal magneto-hydrodynamics characterized by an inverse turbulent cascade. Accordingly, it is often invoked as one of the basic physical quantities driving the generation and structuring of…
We assess the validity of the free magnetic energy - relative magnetic helicity diagram for solar magnetic structures. We used two different methods of calculating the free magnetic energy and the relative magnetic helicity budgets: a…
We apply the magneto-frictional approach to investigate which quantity or quantities can best predict the loss of equilibrium of a translationally-invariant magnetic flux rope. The flux rope is produced self-consistently by flux…
Aims. The main aim of this work is to study the evolution of the recently introduced relative helicity of the magnetic polarity inversion line (PIL) in a magnetohydrodynamics simulation. Methods. The simulation used is a typical flux…
During eruptive solar flares and coronal mass ejections, a non-pot{\-}ential magnetic arcade with much excess magnetic energy goes unstable and reconnects. It produces a twisted erupting flux rope and leaves behind a sheared arcade of hot…
Context. Relative field line helicity (RFLH) is a recently developed quantity which can approximate the density of relative magnetic helicity. Aims. This paper aims to determine whether RFLH can be used as an indicator of solar eruptivity.…
Magnetic helicity is a key geometrical parameter to describe the structure and evolution of solar coronal magnetic fields. The accumulation of magnetic helicity is correlated with the non-potential magnetic field energy, which is released…
We recently proposed a method to calculate the relative magnetic helicity in a finite volume for a given magnetic field which however required the flux to be balanced separately on all the sides of the considered volume. In order to allow…
Magnetic helicity is conserved under ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) and quasi-conserved even under a resistive process. The standard definition for magnetic helicity cannot be applied directly to an open magnetic field in a volume,…
Using vector magnetograms from the HMI/SDO and a magnetic connectivity-based method, we calculate the instantaneous relative magnetic helicity and free magnetic energy budgets for several days in two solar active regions (ARs), AR11890 and…
We study the relative helicity of active region (AR) NOAA~12673 during a ten-hour time interval centered around a preceding X2.2 flare (SOL2017-09-06T08:57) and also including an eruptive X9.3 flare that occurred three hours later…
