Deciphering the Pre–solar-storm Features of the 2017 September Storm From Global and Local Dynamics
Abstract We investigate whether global toroid patterns and the local magnetic field topology of solar active region (AR) 12673 together can hindcast the occurrence of the biggest X-flares of solar cycle (SC)-24. Magnetic toroid patterns (narrow latitude belts warped in longitude, in which ARs are tightly bound) derived from the …
