Direct evidence that twisted flux tube emergence creates solar active regions

Twisted flux tubes are prominent candidates for the progenitors of solar active regions. Here, the authors show a clear signature of the emergence of pre-twisted magnetic flux tubes using magnetic winding, which detects the emerging magnetic topology despite the deformation experienced by the emergi...
