…This could not be explained by Parker's thermal expansion wind theory, and raised a problem. To explain this, a theory was proposed that in the bright parts of the corona, i.e., around sunspot active regions, the magnetic field lines are closed and do not allow plasma to escape, while in the coronal hole parts the magnetic field lines open toward the sky, and this opening strengthens the acceleration of the solar wind. However, this also has problems if the pressure of the high-temperature plasma to be blown out is insufficient, and it is thought that there may be another acceleration mechanism at work other than simple thermal expansion wind, such as Alfvén waves (a type of low-frequency wave that travels through plasma with a magnetic field. In this wave, the vibration is perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field, and its speed v is, where B is the strength of the magnetic field and ρ is the density). … *Some of the terminology that mentions "Alfvén wave" is listed below.

…これはパーカーの熱膨張風理論では説明がつかず,問題を投げかけた。これを説明するためにコロナの明るいところ,すなわち,黒点活動域周辺では磁力線は閉じていてプラズマを逃がさないのに対し,コロナ・ホールの部分の磁力線は上空に向かって開いており,この開きぐあいによって太陽風の加速が強まるという理論が提出されたが,これも吹き出すべき高温プラズマの圧力が十分でない場合は困り,むしろ単純熱膨張風でない,例えばアルベーン波Alfvén wave(磁場をもつプラズマ中を伝わる低周波の一種。この波では振動は磁場の向きと直角方向で,その速度vは,Bを磁場の強さ,ρを密度とすると,である)などによる別の加速機構が働いているのではないかと考えられている。… ※「Alfvén wave」について言及している用語解説の一部を掲載しています。 出典|株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について | 情報 |
