Coronal Holes Not As Well Behaved As We Thought Dustin Hickey Colby College ‘11 Montana State University Solar REU Program Advisor: Dana Longcope August 4, 2010

What is a Coronal Hole? Area of Low Density Plasma on the Sun Visible only in ultraviolet and xray

Relationship to Magnetic Field Thought to be caused by magnetic field lines carrying the plasma into space

How Well do Coronal Holes and Open Magnetic Field Lines Match Up?

Mapping the coronal Holes SOHO EIT images Use intensity to find coronal holes Project them onto a longitude/latitude map

Mapping the Open Field Regions Magnetograms and Harmonic Coefficients Model the magnetic field on the entire sun using a months worth of data

Mapping Challenges Distortion and size changing effects Angle of the sun Output/input compatibility challenges

Interpreting the Maps Overlap Trends and Patterns Consistency

Getting Some Numbers Percent of coronal holes that overlap with open regions Ratio of visible coronal hole are to open region area

Results

Low percentage

High Percentage

Conclusions Coronal holes aren’t completely anchored to open field regions Best correlation is 60% Coronal holes vary over months and hours Emerging Patterns
