| heal.abstract | We report on the first stereoscopic observations of polar coronal jets made by the EUVI/SECCHI imagers on board the twin STEREO spacecraft. The significantly separated viewpoints (~11 °) allowed us to infer the 3D dynamics and morphology of a well-defined EUV coronal jet for the first time. Triangulations of the jet's location in simultaneous image pairs led to the true 3D position and thereby its kinematics. Initially the jet ascends slowly at ##IMG## [http://ej.iop.org/icons/Entities/ap.gif] {?} 10-20 km s ?1 and then, after an apparent "jump" takes place, it accelerates impulsively to velocities exceeding 300 km s ?1 with accelerations exceeding the solar gravity. Helical structure is the most important geometrical feature of the jet which shows evidence of untwisting. The jet structure appears strikingly different from each of the two STEREO viewpoints: face-on in one viewpoint and edge-on in the other. This provides conclusive evidence that the observed helical structure is real and does not result from possible projection effects of single-viewpoint observations. The clear demonstration of twisted structure in polar jets compares favorably with synthetic images from a recent MHD simulation of jets invoking magnetic untwisting as their driving mechanism. Therefore, the latter can be considered as a viable mechanism for the initiation of polar jets. | en |
