1 Partially Ionized Plasma Effect in Dynamic Solar Atmosphere Naoki Nakamura 2015/07/05 Solar Seminar

2 200Mm Asai + (2003) Solar flare Chromospheric jets Hinode CaII H Solar Activity with Emerging flux 20 Mm

3 Solar chromosphere Hinode XRT Hinode SOT

4 Difficulty of observation of chromosphere PhotosphereChromosphereCorona observationContinuum +lineLineEUV line+ X-ray RadiationOptically thick?Optically thin Local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) Yes No Association with physical variables Source function is nearly equal to Planck function => Intensity is highly relates to local gas temperature Photospheric radiation field affect excitation states of atoms, which relates to line. => Intensity could not determined by local physical variables EM : is proportional to density squared Line intensity is highly depend on associate ionization degree, which relates to temperature It is difficult to estimate physical variables from chromosphere observation

5 Solar chromosphere Hinode XRT Hinode SOT

6 Chromosphere (partially ionized plasma) Emerging flux activity in solar atmosphere Current sheet Shibata et al. 2007 Corona (fully-ionized plasma) Photosphere (weakly ionized plasma) ・ What height and physics are important ? ・ Reconnection is same in all layer?

7 Plasma and magnetic field Magnetic field Lorentz Force ( gyration) - + Charged Particles Electric field Frozen in Plasma is frozen into magnetic field Plasma - +

8 Break of frozen in - + Plasma pass through field Non-ideal effect

9 Hall Effect Electron gyration Ion no gyration Magnetic field e p ex1:Difference of Larmor radius Ion Larmor radius > Characteristic scale>Electron Larmor radius P n n n ex2:Collisional frequency difference to neutrals (high density partially ionized plasma) Charged particle cannot gyrate if collisional frequency to neutral become large Ion collisional time<gyration time<electron collisional time Collision

10 Ambipolar diffusion n + - + ① ① Charged Particles <= Lorentz force ②neutral Particles <=Collision to charged particles =>momentum transfer ③ [Sufficient collision] neutrals seems to be frozen into magnetic field [Insufficient collision] neutrals are left =>Ambipolar diffusion Collision ② ③

11 Non-ideal effect to magnetic reconnection J Reconnection picture become difference by each effect

12 Solar atmosphere(VAL3c) gravitationally stratified atmosphere => What kind of effect is important for each height?

13 Khomenko et al. 2014 Compare non-ideal MHD effect in partially ionized plasma Left: quiet Sun Right: Sunspot umbra Non-ideal MHD effect in Solar atmosphere -atmospheric model (magnetic field)-

14 Non-ideal MHD effect in Solar atmosphere -atmospheric model (ionization fraction)- Khomenko et al. 2014 Compare non-ideal MHD effect in partially ionized plasma Left: quiet Sun Right: Sunspot umbra

15 Importance of each non-ideal effect Khomenko et al. 2014 [Quiet] Lower atmosphere : Ohmic and Hall  Higher atmosphere( >1000km) Ambipolar [Sunspot] Lower atmosphere: Hall  Higher atmosphere (>300 km) Ambipolar

16 Minimum magnetic structure by non-ideal effect (Quiet Sun) Time and spatial scale comparable to advection term

17 Minimum magnetic structure by non-ideal effect (Sunspot umbra) Time and spatial scale comparable to advection term

18 Discussion From bottom to upper atmosphere Reconnection picture change Sweet-Parker-like (photosphere) Petschek-like (lower chromosphere) Sweet-Parker-like (upper chromosphere) Quiet Sun ?

19 Dynamic atmosphere Solar Atmosphere is not static =>Dynamic Atmosphere! What is a effect of dynamic parameter change in active phenomena? Carlsson & Stein 1995 Temperature change on time

20 Leake & Arber 2006 Left : fully-ionized Right : partially-ionized Ambipolar diffusion effect life up magnetic field more Emerging flux in partially ionized plasma

21 Parameter change in emerging-flux Leake & Arber 2006 Thin Solid: fully ionized case, Dashed :with ambipolar diffusion Plasma parameter greatly change during emerging flux with ambipolar diffusion =>Dynamic atmosphere is necessary to understand chromopheric reconnection

22 Discussion (Dynamic atmosphere) Ambipolar diffusion approximation (single fluid description) assuming ・ plasma pressure and inertia is much less than ・ Local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) <=Both assumptions are bad at the top of chromosphere =>Two fluid description is necessary

23 Summary ・ Solar atmosphere is gravitationally stratified partially ionized plasma and dominant source of non-ideal effect is different with height Photosphere: Ohmic diffusion Lower chromosphere : Hall effect Upper chromosphere :ambipolar diffusion ・ Non-ideal effect to magnetic reconnection is difference in Hall and ambipolar effect ・ Non-static atmosphere, plasma parameters is much difference in static atmosphere. =>Full simulation is important to understand such a phenomena
