Dynamic Model of Magnetic Flux Ropes

Аннотация

Developing ideas of the paper Zaitsev and Stepanov (2018) with regards to activation of a current-carrying filament with an increase in electric current, in which the Ampère force is opposed by gravity and medium viscosity, we take into account the influence of an external magnetic field. It is shown that, depending on mutual directions of the external magnetic field and electric current in the flux rope, the additional Ampère force can lead to the deceleration or to additional eruption of the flux rope. A phase diagram describing the peculiarities of flux rope dynamics has been constructed. The maximum height and velocity of the flare loop are determined for the event on March 30, 2001.
