Coronal Magnetic FieldsWhat are we learning from CoMP observations?
WHEN: Tuesday afternoon, July 12, 2011
Invited Speaker: Laurel RachmelerLearning about coronal polarization through
forward modeling
Co-Conveners: Steve Tomczyk, Scott McIntosh, Joan Burkepile
So what? Who cares?
• The corona is a magnetically dominated system; solar activity derives its energy from coronal magnetic fields; no routine measurements
• How does the coronal field react to newly emerging flux through the photosphere? … to large scale motions such as meridional flow and differential rotation?
• How well do models reproduce the field?• How does the heliosphere react to changes in the
coronal magnetic field?
