Eruptivity Criteria for Two-Dimensional Magnetic Flux Ropes in the Solar Corona

We apply the magneto-frictional approach to investigate which quantity or quantities can best predict the loss of equilibrium of a translationally-invariant magnetic flux rope. The flux rope is produced self-consistently by flux cancellation combined with gradual footpoint shearing of a coronal arca...
