Statistical properties of spicules.
| Property | MURaM-Pereira | Observations (QS) |
|---|---|---|
| (min – max) | (Pereira et al. 2012) | |
| Lifetime [s] | 40–150 | 50–150 |
| Max velocity [km/s] | 20–230 | 18–160 |
| Max length [Mm] | 2.3–8.9 | 1.5–10 |
| Width [km] | 200–500 | 200–450 |
| Inclination [°] | −46–56 | −40–50 |
| Max height [Mm] | 1–10 | 2–10 |
Notes. Statistical properties of 30 spicules in the simulations versus 174 spicules in quiet-Sun (QS) observations with Hinode/SOT (Pereira et al. 2012). The lifetimes and widths of the observations are reported as the values where the majority of spicules (mode of the distribution) lie.
