Flux Emergence and Pore Formation: What ATST can See
Abstract
Pores form spontaneously in flux emergence simulations where minimally structured (uniform, untwisted, horizontal) magnetic field rises from a depth of 20 Mm. With 1 kG incident field pores formed after about a turnover time (2 days). To compare what ATST will see with current telescopes a very high resolution (6 km) magneto-convection simulation was carried out with an initially uniform, vertical field. Stokes V-profiles were compared for the simulation and as modified for the diffraction pattern for the ATST and the SST.
