Coronal Magnetic Fields What are we learning from CoMP observations
Coronal Magnetic Fields What are we learning from CoMP observations? WHEN: Tuesday afternoon, July 12, 2011 Invited Speaker: Laurel Rachmeler Learning about coronal polarization through forward modeling Co-Conveners: Steve Tomczyk, Scott McIntosh, Joan Burkepile

So what? Who cares? The corona is a magnetically dominated system; solar activity derives its energy from coronal magnetic fields; no routine measurements How does the coronal field react to newly emerging flux through the photosphere? … to large scale motions such as meridional flow and differential rotation? How well do models reproduce the field? How does the heliosphere react to changes in the coronal magnetic field?
