A Modular Capability for Community Modeling of Flares, CMEs and their Interplanetary Impacts

LWS MSEC project page

CCMC is supporting "A Modular Capability for Community Modeling of Flares, CMEs and their Interplanetary Impacts" effort within the NASA/NSF Partnership For Collaborative Space Weather Modeling. Modular Solar Eruptions Capability (MSEC) will consist of a set of interchangeable modules and libraries, including a Training Library, that will enable the user to model a complete solar eruption event, from energy buildup by flux emergence to space weather impact at Earth. All the MSEC components will be delivered to the CCMC and the source code will be made publicly available. MSEC will be used to attack the four central problems in the science of solar eruptions: (1) energy buildup and eruption onset, (2) explosive energy release, (3) the nature of fast coronal reconnection, and (4) Heliospheric impacts.

SWMF AWSoM_R (Alfven Wave Solar Atmosphere model), has been installed at the CCMC, with the following products available to the users:

  • AWSoM_R (steady state ambient) version using full rotation magnetograms is available for CCMC Runs on Request users.
  • AWSoM_R (time dependent) Real Time runs are being performed at the CCMC and will be available for the public soon.
  • AWSoM_R (time dependent) + CME + EEGGL(Eruptive Event Generator, Gibson and Low) with the options to choose Full Rotation Synoptic maps or QuickReduce Synoptic maps will be available for CCMC Runs on Request users soon.

CCMC has regular communication (weekly) with the MSEC team and visits from Igor Sokolov (every few months).
