We investigated the complex subsurface magnetic rope structure of a super-active region NOAA 10488. With the set of twisted magnetic loop, knot and bifurcate configuration ,we could explain the complicated flux emerging, developing and disappearing by following Tanaka model (Tanaka, 1991). Based on Huairou photospheric vector magnetograms, we calculated the current helicity and found the dominant helicity sign is positive. We deduced that the whole active region might be one twisted magnetic rope.To search for other articles by the author(s) go to: http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html
