Magnetohydrostatic Sunspot Models from Deep Subphotospheric to Chromospheric Layers

摘要

In order to understand the influence of magnetic fields on the propagation properties of waves, as derived from different local helioseismology techniques, forward modeling of waves is required. Such calculations need a model in magnetohydrostatic equilibrium as an initial atmosphere through which to propagate oscillations. We provide a method to construct such a model in equilibrium for a wide range of parameters, for use in simulations of artificial helioseismologic data. The method combines the advantages of self-similar solutions and current-distributed models. A set of models is developed by numerical integration of magnetohydrostatic equations from the subphotospheric to chromospheric layers.
