UV Spectroscopy of CME Currrent Sheets John Raymond Angela Ciaravella Silvio Giordano Dave Webb

Overview Lin & Forbes Model Reconnection occurs between the flare loops and the CME core. It converts magnetic energy to heat, Kinetic energy and energetic particles. It releases the overlying magnetic arches, allowing CME to escape. It creates or adds to a twisted magnetic flux rope. It is crucial to areas of astrophysics, such as accretion disks.

Current Sheet Models Petschek Turbulent Lazarian & Vishniac Tajima & Shibata Vršnak

Diagnostics Temperature e.g., [Fe XVIII], [Fe XXI], X-rays Density Combine emission measure with column density Thickness Projection effects? Turbulent Speed Line widths (correct for thermal speed) Reconnection rate Inflow/outflow speeds; blobs, filaments (Yokoyama; Lin et al.)

Innes et al Apr 21, TRACE 195

[Fe XVIII] -- 6 x 10 6 K Lower T lines UV: High temperature feature between flare loops and CME CME Core Post-flare Arcade Reconnection Current Sheets Magnetic Reconnection is poorly understood. It heats and accelerates gas, produces energetic particles. Spectra determine electron and ion temperatures, densities, turbulence. Ciaravella et al.
