Formation and evolution of the magnetic flux rope’s feet in 1600 Å. a Shows the morphology with two irregular bright rings (highlighted by rectangles) attached to the far ends of flare ribbons. The footpoint associated with negative polarity (FP−) is shown in be and that associated with positive polarity (FP+) in fi. e, i Show dimming in 304 Å base-difference images. The dimmed pixels within FP− and FP+ are replotted in d, h in blue and red colors, respectively. Four virtual slits (S1–S4) are indicated in a, b, f, with their starting point marked by ‘0’
