Schrijver's R value quantifies the amount of unsigned magnetic flux around a strong magnetic polarity inversion line (MPILs) present in the photospheric normal-to-surface magnetic field of an active region. Original calculation of R was implemented for line-of-sight MDI magnetograms, therefore this implementation reduce the HMI magnetogram's resolution from 0.5'' to 2.0''. In this implementantion, R value can be calculated using the radial-component magnetogram provided by the CEA version of HMI data.
HARP cutouts of CEA Blos and Br.
Value of magnetic flux threshold (th) in order to define the strong portion of MPILs. Different values of th are used for Blos or Br.
