Step 1-Computing the Magnetic  Field



  Step 2 - Tracing the Coronal loops


  • For constant α fields, ∇XB=α B ends up becoming the Helmholtz Equation.
  • For a given α and a photospheric flux distribution,Bz, the solution can be obtained using the Green's Function (Chiu and Hilton, 1977).
  • The Green's Function is a function of α; for different alphas we have different Green's Function.
  • Knowing the magnetic field enables the plotting of field lines.
