Prediction of the Structure of the Corona for the 2024 Total Solar Eclipse:  A Continuously Updated Model
crossref(2024)
Abstract
Total solar eclipses offer an unparalleled opportunity to observe the low and middle corona. As is our tradition, the solar physics team at Predictive Science is predicting the structure of the solar corona for the April 8, 2024 total solar eclipse, using a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model of the corona. The model incorporates thermodynamic transport terms and employs a wave-turbulence-driven (WTD) description of coronal heating and solar wind acceleration. Our previous coronal predictions employed relaxed MHD solutions corresponding to a boundary condition based on a single photospheric magnetic map, incorporating data that at best was measured 10 to 14 days prior to the eclipse. This year, we introduce a new paradigm: A continuously updated prediction based on a time-evolving model. To accomplish this near-real time description, we have incorporated 3 new elements: (1) a time-evolving MHD model driven by evolution of the photospheric magnetic field, (2) an automated method for energizing the non-potential corona near polarity inversion lines that evolve in time, and (3) The Open-source Flux Transport (OFT) model, that assimilates near-real time surface magnetic flux observations from SDO HMI as well as low-latency observations from the Solar Orbiter PHI instrument made away from the Sun–-Earth line. This presentation will give an overview of the entire prediction effort and describe the time-dependent coronal dynamical features that appear in the solutions. Research Supported by NASA and NSF. Computational resources provided by the NSF ACCESS program and the NASA Advanced Supercomputing division at Ames.

Key content
- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
