Scientific paper

A model for the emergence of buoyant segments of magnetic flux tubes whose ends are still anchored in the stable layers below the convection zone is developed. This model is based on the thin flux tube approximation of Spruit. Several specific examples of buoyant flux tube evolution computed with the model are described. In particular, attention is given to an example of a flux tube which results in upflows as it emerges, in contrast to the downflows generally believed to accompany the Parker instability.
