2 Contents 1. Main Objectives & Overall Strategy 2. Empirical Flare Forecasting Models 3. Fully Automated System for Flare Forecasting 1) Development 2) Evaluation 4. Discussion 1) Helicity Flux Density 2) Applications: Flare Prediction for Limited FOV Observations
3 Flare Occurrence (at least C-class): Yes or No? Yes! No! 3
4 How about this AR? Yes! 4
5 1. Main Objectives Well-known Facts Most of solar flares occur in active regions (ARs) where intense magnetic fields exist in the solar atmosphere. In addition, it has been well studied that flare-productive ARs typically have complex and non-potential magnetic structures. Unknown Facts: it is not yet known exactly (1) when flares will occur, (2) how large their strength/size will be (e.g., peak/total fluxes at a specific range of wavelengths, duration, spatial size), (3) where they will occur in ARs.

7 2. Empirical Flare Forecasting Models 2.1. Magnetic Helicity twists kinks inter-linkages Magnetic helicity is a measure for global complexity of a given magnetic field system in terms of twists (T), kinks (K), and inter-linkages (L) of magnetic field lines (Beger & Field 1984; Pevtsov 2008; Démoulin & Pariat 2009). H = (T i +K i ) Φ i Φ i + L ij Φ i Φ j i i j i 7
8 WHY Magnetic Helicity? Simulations: a number of numerical MHD simulations show that magnetic field configurations for the initiation of eruptions are quite far from a potential state (e.g., Chen & Shibata 2000, Fan & Gibson 2004, Archontis & Torok 2008, Kusano et al. 2012). Observations: (1) twisted or kinked structures of eruptive prominences/coronal jets/cmes/ interplanetary magnetic clouds and (2) rotating sunspots/shear flows/sheared or twisted magnetic fields/s- or J-shape coronal loops in flare/cme-productive active regions. 8

11 2.2. Helicity Injection vs. Flare Productivity The feasibility of using magnetic helicity to develop a flare forecasting system was explored with a data sample of 378 ARs covering the solar cycle 23 ( ) min SOHO/MDI LOS magnetograms - 24-hr profile of helicity injection rate in the entire photospheric surface of an AR - Average helicity injection rate - The absolute value of the average helicity injection rate is compared with (1) flare index derived from the GOES soft X-ray observation for the next 24-hr time window and (2) flare-productive probability calculated for the next 3-day time window. < Flare Index > < Flare-Productive Probability > i = GOES class 11

24 4. Discussion How can this flare forecasting system be used for a limited fieldof-view flare observation? (1) Exclusion of less flare-productive ones among several ARs on the solar disk if there are several (2) Selection of the most likely flare-productive AR Limited field-of-view observations: ~1 1 arcmin 2 (1) DKIST Visible Broadband Imager: 2 2 arcmin 2 (optical), arcsec 2 (blue channel), arcsec 2 (red channel) Visible Spectro-polarimeter: 2 2 arcmin 2 Visible Tunable Filter: 1 1 arcmin 2 (2) EST High resolution mode: 1 1 arcmin 2 Large field-of-view mode: 2 2 arcmin 2 Typical AR size: a few arcmin 2 But some large flaring ARs >> 1 arcmin 2 (e.g. AR 12192: ~10 10 arcmin 2 ) 24

28 5. Summary and Future Works (1) Magnetic helicity injection through an entire AR surface A fully automated system for flare forecasting has been developed. It can be used for a reference of selecting the most likely flareproductive AR (or at least excluding non-flaring ARs). (2) Magnetic helicity flux density map in a target AR It is needed to develop a model and program to estimate the largescale coronal magnetic field structure in the AR from helicity flux density maps combined with (maybe simple potential) magnetic field line extrapolation. Then it can be a useful tool for pointing out the most likely flareproductive location and/or flare-associated field lines in the AR. 28
