A Model of Plasma Sheets in Equilibrium
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
We consider large coronal streamers as confined thin plasma sheets overlying the filament and/or the magnetic polarity inversion lines. Confirmation is found in recent synoptic LASCO/SOHO data and simulations. We discuss the 3D axi-symmetric consistent MHD solution which provides the necessary properties of confinement and equilibrium by including gravity forces in the Grad-Shafranov equation.
