Magnetic fields in the quiescent solar corona usually remain connected to photospheric (subcoronal) fields. Since the ratio between the plasma and magnetic pressures satisifies beta somewhat > 1 below the corona, the frozen in field in this high inertia region is easily moved about by the continual motion of the photospheric plasma. In the corona, however, beta somewhat < 0.1 and magnetic effects dominate. The response of coronal fields to photospheric motion is simulated by subjecting a coronal magnetic cylinder, with an initially uniform axial field, to a radially varying twist at the end plastes. Azimuthal symmetry is assumed, and the time dependent MHD equations are solved numerically for a specified end plate rotation.
