Description

While the flux emergence of photospheric small-scale structures already are well observed and understood, our understanding of the impact of the emerging flux on the energetics and magnetic structure of the above-lying atmosphere is insufficient, as is the fate of the rising magnetic field and how it couples the different regions of the atmosphere. In this talk we will present realistic" 3D models of flux emergence and discuss the reconnection that ensues as the newly emerged field expands into the chromosphere."
