Relative Alpha in the Magnetohydrodynamics with Open Magnetic Field Boundary and Its Application to the Solar Eruption

An instability criterion in the magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) with the open boundary of a magnetic field is proposed in this paper. We use a series of linear force-free extrapolation fields, in which the normal part of the magnetic field is fixed, to obtain the linear fitting coefficient called relativ...
