Flow instabilities of magnetic flux tubes III. Toroidal flux tubes
Context. The stability properties of toroidal magnetic flux tubes are relevant for the storage and emergence of magnetic fields in the convective envelope of cool stars. In addition to buoyancyand magnetic tension-driven instabilities, flux tubes are also susceptible to an instability induced by the hydrodynamic drag force. Aims. Following our investigation of the basic instability mechanism in...
متن کاملMHD simulations of flows around rotating and non-rotating axisymmetric magnetic flux concentrations
We present results on modeling magnetic flux tubes in an unstably stratified medium and the flows around them using 2D axisymmetric magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) simulations. The study is motivated by the formation of magnetic field concentrations at the solar surface in sunspots and magnetic pores and the large-scale flow patterns associated with them. The simulations provide consistent, self-mai...
متن کاملPhotospheric processes and magnetic flux tubes
New high-resolution observations reveal that small-scale magnetic flux concentrations have a delicate substructure on a spatial scale of 0.1′′. Their basic structure can be interpreted in terms of a magnetic flux sheet or tube that vertically extends through the ambient weak-field or fieldfree atmosphere with which it is in mechanical equilibrium. A more refined interpretation comes from new th...
متن کاملThe Rise of Kink-unstable Magnetic Flux Tubes in the Solar Convection Zone
We report preliminary results of a three-dimensional simulation of the buoyant rise of a strongly twisted, kinkunstable magnetic flux tube through a gravitationally stratified layer representing the solar convection zone. The numerical calculations employ the well-known anelastic approximation, which is suitable for studying slow, subsonic dynamical processes in the pressure-dominated, high-b p...
متن کاملDNA molecule stretching through thermo-electrophoresis and thermal convection in a heated converging-diverging microchannel
A novel DNA molecule stretching technique is developed and tested herein. Through a heated converging-diverging microchannel, thermal convection and thermophoresis induced by regional heating are shown to significantly elongate single DNA molecules; they are visualized via a confocal laser scanning microscopy. In addition, electrophoretic stretching is also implemented to examine the hybrid eff...
