Active region NOAA 10930 produced the first X-class flare observed by the Hinode satellite. Fortunately, the data covers the time span before and after the X-class flare arising on December 13, 2006 in this active region. During this event, the Hinode satellite clearly observed the typical features of a flare: two ribbon and post flare loop structures seen by SOT, sigmoidal structure before the onset, and subsequent cusp loop structure seen by XRT. We analyzed the three-dimensional magnetic structure of the region before and after the flare on Dec.13, 2006 using the Non-Linear Force-Free (NLFF) extrapolation method based on extended magnetofrictional method.
As a result of the NLFF extrapolation, we found that, before the flare onset, strong sheared structures were formed on the neutral line. Furthermore, we revealed that a sigmoidal structure was not formed of a single loop, but was composed of strong multiple sheared field. On other the hand, after the flare, elongated magnetic flux is partially formed and a part of magnetic shear was released. The result indicates that the part of NLFF relaxes toward the potential like field in this event.
