Solar coronal plumes; 2039
要旨:
Plumes are bright structures in coronal holes extending from the solar surface into the corona and are considered as a possible source of the solar wind. Plumes are thought to be rooted in strong unipolar photospheric flux patches (network/plage region). The magnetic activities at the base of plumes may play a crucial role in producing outflows and propagating disturbances (PDs). However, the role of photospheric/chromospheric activities (e.g., jets/spicules) at the base of plumes and their connection to PDs is poorly understood. Using high-resolution observations of a plume taken on 2020 July 23 with the 1.6 m Goode Solar Telescope (GST), Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS), and the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on board the Solar Dynamics Observatory, we analyzed chromospheric/transition region activities at the base of the plume and their connection to outflows/PDs in the plume. The GST Visible Imaging Spectrometer images reveal repetitive spicules with blueshifted emission (pseudo-Doppler maps) at the plume's footpoint. In addition, the photospheric magnetograms provide evidence of mixed polarities at the base of the plume. The IRIS Mg II k Dopplergrams show strong blueshifted emission (~50 km s-1) and a high brightness temperature (Mg II k2 line) at the footpoint of the plume. The long-period PDs (P ≈ 20-25 minutes) along the plume (AIA 171 Å) match the periodicity of spicules in the chromospheric images, suggesting a close connection between the spicules and the PDs. We suggest that the interchange reconnection between the closed and open flux of the coronal bright point at the plume's footpoint is the most likely candidate to produce upflows and associated PDs along the plume.
