1 Magnetic helicity of solar active regions J. K. Thalmann Solar Group Seminar 12 Jul, 2011
2 Helicity of interlinked curves Number of enlacements of two interlinked curves l and l (Gauss, C. F., 1833, Werke, 5, 605.) L ll = 1 4π l l ( dl dl ) r r r r 3 (1) L... Gauss linking number r, r... points on the curves l and l dl, dl... line segment of l and l - remains the same if the two curves are interchanged - is left unchanged if l or l are moved without intersecting each other If there are N curves with flux φ i, i = 1,..., N in a closed volume: H m,tot = = N N L ij φ i φ j i=1 j=1 L ij φ i φ j + L ii φ 2 i (2) i j i=j N(N 1) terms where i j : mutual helicity between curves i and j + N terms where i = j: self helicity of curves i
3 Examples L ii = 0 L ii = 0 L ii = 5 L jj = 0 L jj = 0 L ij = 1 L ij = 3 L ij = 0 H m,tot = 2 L ij φ i φ j H m,tot = 2 L ij φ i φ j H m,tot = L ii φ 2 i = 2 φ i φ j = 6 φ i φ j = 5 φ 2 i sign depends on relative orientation of flux
4 Helicity in a volume Real cases: - infinite number of field lines (concentrated in magnetic flux tubes) - complex combination of twist and linking (contributing different amounts to H m,tot ) Approximation of H m,tot in a volume (Moffat, H. K., 1969, J. Fluid Mech., 35, ) : - generalized formulation of the linkage of pairs of flux tubes and the twist of individual flux tubes L ll = 1 4π l l ( dl dl r r N ) r r 3, H m,tot = L ll φφ, φ = l,l S B ds =1 The helicity of a magnetic field B = A, in a volume V, is given by if n B = 0 on V. H m,tot = dv A B (3) V A... magnetic vector potential, A B... magnetic helicity density
5 Linkage ambiguity What is the meaning of magnetic closure (n B = 0 on V)? H m,tot = 0 H V = Φ 2 H V = H V B mirror symmetric in V H m,tot = 2 Φ 2 H V = Φ 2 H V = H V B identical in V If no magnetic closure (n B 0 on V): - magnetic field lines have endpoints on V, linking numbers are undefined - ambiguity in counting linkage of flux tubes gauge ambiguity Figures taken from Hornig, G., 2006, arxiv:astro-ph/

13 Helicity proxies Hemispheric sign trend Predominantly negative/positive helicity patterns in northern/southern hemisphere 19 Jan, 2004: NOAA AR located at 14 S - differential rotation directly twists flux tube foot points - right-handed twist of field lines about its axis within flux tube - implies positive helicity Figure taken from Bao, S. D., et al., 2002, Astrophys. J., 573,
14 Helicity proxies Magnetic tongues: - elongations of magnetic polarities - observable during emergence - flux distribution interpreted as due to emergence of twisted flux tube - only two possible configurations - if sign of polarities is reversed, sign of helicity does not Figures taken from Luoni, M.
