Description
S2WARM (St Andrews Space Weather Active Region Monitor) recognises eruptive solar active regions by assimilating magnetogram data into 3D NLFFF simulations and projecting their evolution. It computes first a theoretical and then a specific metrics to issue green, amber, or red alerts, factoring magnetic flux changes and Lorentz force evolution. Tested on a full rotation with 23 cases, S2WARM correctly classified most of them and provides some interesting insights.
S2WARM is a model based on the 3D reconstruction of the magnetic field above and active region and its physical properties, hence providing an interesting platform where space weather prediction and physics of the solar corona meet.
