On the transport of magnetic energy and complexity to the solar corona
Abstract
For the active corona—a system consisting of electromagnetic fields and particles, the only open field surface is the solar photosphere. Interaction between the velocity and magnetic fields on the photosphere is the primary cause of the upward transport of magnetic energy and complexity to the corona, with the diffusion process there also playing a role.
