Statistical Approach on Differential Emission Measure of Coronal Holes using the CATCH Catalog
2021
Overview
Coronal holes are large-scale structures in the solar atmosphere that feature a reduced temperature and density in comparison to the surrounding quiet Sun and are usually associated with open magnetic fields. We perform a differential emission measure analysis on the 707 non-polar coronal holes in the Collection of Analysis Tools for Coronal Holes (CATCH) catalog to derive and statistically analyze their plasma properties (i.e. temperature, electron density, and emission measure). We use intensity filtergrams of the six coronal EUV filters from the
Atmospheric Imaging Assembly
onboard the
Solar Dynamics Observatory
, which cover a temperature range from
≈
10
5.5
to
10
7.5
K
. Correcting the data for stray and scattered light, we find that all coronal holes have very similar plasma properties with an average temperature of
0.94
±
0.18
MK
, a mean electron density of

. The temperature distribution within the coronal holes was found to be largely uniform, whereas the electron density shows a 30 to 40% linear decrease from the boundary towards the inside of the coronal hole. At distances greater than 20″ (
≈
15
Mm
) from the nearest coronal hole boundary, the density also becomes statistically uniform. The coronal hole temperature may show a weak solar-cycle dependency, but no statistically significant correlation of plasma properties with solar-cycle variations could be determined throughout the observed period between 2010 and 2019.
