Intro#
This wikipage, for the workshop Flux Emergence in the Hinode Era
, is where we're assembling descriptions of Hinode and concurrent observational data that show flux emergence on the Sun.

Purpose#
These are the suggested cases which will be investigated for the Flux Emergence Workshop in March. Please feel free to suggest additional instrumental data and relevant publications for these cases.

| AR | General Comments | 2006-12-01 12:00 | 2006-12-02 16:00 (approx.) | Flux emergence in active region 10926. AR 10926 is a pre-existing bipolar region that already included a sunspot, the new flux emergence took place in the decayed following polarity and created a new sunspot. Small flares (GOES B and C class) occurred in the region during this time. |

| | General | | | Flux emerging in an existing active region. .
"Streaming motion, appearance of bright points, pore formation/coalscence, penumbral formation" (M. Cheung).
HEK movies here.
The EIS data for this time series are spaced out due to eclipse season, and primarily consist of slot'n'stare series in the early part of the day, then context observations followed by narrow-FOV slit rasters with great temperature coverage. Before the VTT data, we have short 40" slot'n'stare movies (STA_LOOP_SLOT_LO) which show early evolution of the loop system.
There are several B-class flares in this region throughout the day |
