Flux emergence event underneath a filament

Flux emergence phenomena are relevant at different temporal and spatial scales. We have studied a flux emergence region underneath a filament. This filament elevated itself smoothly, and the associated CME reached Earth. In this study we investigate the size and amount of flux in the emergence event. The flux emergence site appeared just beneath a filament. The emergence acquired a size of 24 Mm in half a day. The unsigned magnetic flux density from LOS-magnetograms is around 1 kG at its maximum. The transverse field as well as the filament eruption were also analysed.
