It is suggested that large scale oscillations of the Sun give rise to the periodic fluctuations observed in the quiet Sun at radio wavelengths. These fluctuations would be most readily observed from regions where there is a large gradient of electron temperature with electron density, and are thus more readily observed at cm wavelengths than at millimetre wavelengths. 相似文献

The GOES C7.5 flare on 20 February 2002 at 11:07 UT is one of the first solar flares observed by RHESSI at X-ray wavelengths. It was simultaneously observed at metric/decimetric wavelengths by the Nançay radioheliograph (NRH) which provided images of the flare between 450 and 150 MHz. We present a first comparison of the hard X-ray images observed with RHESSI and of the radio emission sites observed by the NRH. This first analysis shows that: (1) there is a close occurrence between the production of the HXR-radiating most energetic electrons and the injection of radio-emitting non-thermal electrons at all heights in the corona, (2) modifications with time in the pattern of the HXR sources above 25 keV and of the decimetric radio sources at 410 MHz are observed occurring on similar time periods, (3) in the late phase of the most energetic HXR peak, a weak radio source is observed at high frequencies, overlying the EUV magnetic loops seen in the vicinity of the X-ray flaring sites above 12 keV. These preliminary results illustrate the potential of combining RHESSI and NRH images for the study of electron acceleration and transport in flares. 相似文献

A correlative study of characteristic features observed in the ATS-5 particle data, in the Chatanika electric field and ionospheric conductivity data has been performed. It is found that distinct variations in the electric field are observed at Chatanika at the onset of a precipitation event at geostationary orbit. This is probably the effect of the transient electric field inferred by McIlwain (1973). A turn in the meridional component from north to south is observed at Chatanika at about the same local time as the ATS-5 satellite is crossing the injection boundary. This turn in the electric field at Chatanika which is also related to strong particle precipitation is probably due to the crossing of the Harang discontinuity. 相似文献

Quasi-periodic solar emission has been observed with a radio spectrograph operating at 18–28 MHz during weak decametric continuum on August 22, 1972. The continuum activity was observed simultaneously on fixed frequency receivers at 18 MHz and at 26 MHz. The pulsations showed a mean period of 4 s and a sharp low-frequency cut-off at 24 MHz. Spectral characteristics of these and similar pulsations observed by other workers are examined and shown to be consistent with an interpretation based on an oscillating magnetic flux tube in the solar corona. 相似文献

This paper describes the strong fluctuations in the intensity of radio source PKS 2025-15, observed at 327 MHz, during its occultation by comet Kohoutek (1973f) in 1974, January 5. Possible mechanisms which could produce the observed fluctuations are examined. It is difficult to explain the fluctuations in terms of scintillation produced due to the passage of radio waves through the irregular cometary plasma.No detectable radio emission was observed from the comet at 327 MHz. 相似文献

We consider the multifractal spectrum of fluctuations of the interplanetary magnetic field strengths observed by Advanced Composition Explorer at the Earth's orbit. We have found that the multifractal scaling of magnetic fields is observed both on small and large scales from minutes to days. The obtained multifractal spectrum is asymmetric for small scales, in contrast to a rather symmetric spectrum observed at scales larger than a day. Moreover, we show that the degree of multifractality of the magnetic fields on large scales is correlated with the solar activity and greater than that at the small scales, where the magnetic turbulence may become roughly monofractal. 相似文献

The mean solar magnetic field as measured in integrated light has been observed since 1968. Since 1970 it has been observed both at Hale Observatories and at the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory. The observing procedures at both observatories and their implications for mean field measurements are discussed. A comparison of the two sets of daily observations shows that similar results are obtained at both observatories. A comparison of the mean field with the interplanetary magnetic polarity shows that the IMF sector structure has the same pattern as the mean field polarity. 相似文献

Brightness and linear polarization measurements at 678.5 nm for four south-north strips of Jupiter are studied. These measurements were obtained in 1997 by the Galileo photopolarimeter/radiometer. The observed brightness exhibits latitudinal variations consistent with the belt/zone structure of Jupiter. The observed degree of linear polarization is small at low latitudes and increases steeply toward higher latitudes. No clear correlations were observed between the degree of linear polarization and the brightness. The observed direction of polarization changes from approximately parallel to the local scattering plane at low latitudes to perpendicular at higher latitudes. For our studies, we used atmospheric models that include a haze layer above a cloud layer. Parameterized scattering matrices were employed for the haze and cloud particles. On a pixel-wise basis, the haze optical thickness and the single-scattering albedo of the cloud particles were derived from the observed brightness and degree of linear polarization; results were accepted only if they were compatible with the observed direction of polarization. Using atmospheric parameter values obtained from Pioneer 10 and 11 photopolarimetry for the South Tropical Zone and the north component of the South Equatorial Belt, this analysis yielded acceptable results for very few pixels, particularly at small phase angles. However, for almost all pixels, acceptable results were found when the parameterized scattering matrix of the cloud particles was adjusted to produce more negative polarization for single scattering of unpolarized light, especially at large scattering angles, similar to some laboratory measurements of ammonia ice crystals. Using this adjusted model, it was found that the derived latitudinal variation of the single-scattering albedo of the cloud particles is consistent with the belt/zone structure, and that the haze optical thickness steeply increases toward higher latitudes. 相似文献

Different missions have observed mesospheric clouds on Mars in the last years. The presence of these clouds implies, among other conditions, mesospheric temperatures below CO2 condensation temperature. We use a General Circulation Model to study the mesospheric temperatures and compare the observed distribution of the mesospheric clouds and the predicted climatology of mesospheric temperatures. Although the model does not usually predict temperatures below condensation for daytime conditions, in some regions the predicted temperatures are close enough to condensation that perturbations caused by small scale processes could produce local excursions below condensation. The location and time of the lowest temperatures predicted by the GCM correspond to a first order with the two observed populations of mesospheric clouds: equatorial clouds observed before and after the Northern summer solstice, and mid-latitude clouds observed around the Northern winter solstice. For the equatorial clouds season, the model predicts temperatures close to condensation at the longitude, latitude, altitude and local time where they have been observed. We find that the diurnal migrating thermal tide and non-migrating tides are at the root of the spatial confinement of the equatorial clouds. For the mid-latitude clouds season, the temperatures predicted by the model at the location of the observed clouds is too high. Stereo observations by two different instruments allow for the determination of the zonal speed of these clouds producing a rare dataset of mesospheric winds. We compare the mesospheric zonal winds predicted by the model with these observations, finding a good agreement, although in some cases the observed variability exceeds that predicted by the model. 相似文献

The magnetic field variations observed at Ahmedabad during the magnetic storm of August 4 to 6, 1972 are subjected to power Spectrum Analysis. The storm is divided in five parts depending upon its morphology and phase. Prominent peaks are observed in the range of 60–300 sec periods. The prominent periods and their respective power are studied in relation to the progress and phase of the storm. These are then related to the condition of the magnetosphere and the interplanetary medium observed at the time of the storm. 相似文献

A series of solar flares was observed near the same location in NOAA active region 8996 on 18–20 May 2000. A detailed analysis of one of these flares is presented where the emitting structures in soft and hard X-rays, EUV, H, and radio at centimeter wavelengths are compared. Hard X-rays and radio emission were observed at two separate loop footpoints, while soft X-rays and EUV emission were observed mainly above the nearby positive polarity region. The flare was confined although the observed type III bursts at the time of the flare maximum indicate that some field lines were open to the corona. No flux emergence was evident but moving magnetic features were observed around the sunspot region and within the positive polarity (plage) region. We suggest that the flaring was due to loop–loop interactions over the positive polarity region, where accelerated electrons gained access to the two separate loop systems. The repeated radio flaring at the footpoint of one loop was visible because of the strong magnetic fields near the large sunspot region while at the footpoint of the other loop the electrons could precipitate and emit in hard X-rays. The simultaneous emission and fluctuations in radio and X-rays – in two different loop ends – further support the idea of a single acceleration site at the loop intersection. 相似文献

We present the first observations of a solar flare with the GMRT. An M2.8 flare observed at 1060 MHz with the GMRT on 17 November 2001 was associated with a prominence eruption observed at 17 GHz by the Nobeyama radioheliograph and the initiation of a fast partial halo CME observed with the LASCO C2 coronagraph. Towards the start of the eruption, we find evidence for reconnection above the prominence. Subsequently, we find evidence for rapid growth of a vertical current sheet below the erupting arcade, which is accompanied by the flare and prominence eruption. 相似文献

Many types of ULF pulsations observed at geosynchronous orbit exhibit properties of standing shear Alfvén waves. Observation of the harmonic mode, polarization state and azimuthal wave number is crucial for determining the source of energy responsible for excitation of these waves. In recent years it has become possible to identify the harmonic mode of standing waves from dynamic spectral analysis, as well as simultaneous observations of electric and magnetic fields of the waves or a comparison between plasma mass density estimated from the frequency of the waves and that observed by direct measurement. It is then more reasonable to classify pulsations according to their physical properties, including the harmonic mode, polarization state, azimuthal wave number, and localization in occurrence, than according to the conventional scheme based on the wave form and period range. From analysis of magnetic pulsations observed at geosynchronous orbit, at least two distinctively different types of waves have been identified. One is azimuthally polarized waves simultaneously excited at the fundamental and several harmonics of a standing Alfvén wave which are observed throughout the day side. They have relatively small azimuthal numbers (less than 10) and propagate tailward. They are likely to be excited by the interaction of the solar wind with the magnetopause or bow shock. Another type is radially polarized waves most strongly excited at the second harmonic. They are observed mainly on the afternoon side. Bounce resonance of a few keV ions has been suggested as the mechanism for excitation of the radially polarized waves. 相似文献

We present a study of a mini-filament erupting in association with a circular ribbon flare observed by NVST and SDO/AIA on 2014 March 17. The filament was located at one footpoint region of a large loops. The potential field extrapolation shows that it was embedded under a magnetic null point configuration. First, we observed a brightening of the filament at the corresponding EUV images, close to one end of the filament. With time evolution, a circular flare ribbon was observed around the filament at the onset of the eruption, which is regarded as a signature of reconnection at the null point. After the filament activation, its eruption took the form of a surge, which ejected along one end of a large-scale closed coronal loops with a curtain-like shape. We conjecture that the null point reconnection may facilitate the eruption of the filament. 相似文献

The spectra of sunspots were observed in the region of the LiI 6708 Å lines and several FeI and CaI lines. The observations were carried out with a CCD camera in May, June, and July 2007 using the BST-2 telescope of the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory. The spot models were calculated using the observed profiles of FeI and CaI lines. The lithium content was estimated at log(NLi) = 1.20, 1.15, and 1.00 (at the scale of logA(H) = 12.0) using the calculated spot models and observed LiI 6708 Å line profiles. 相似文献

Several substorms were observed at Explorer 45 in November and December 1971, and January and February 1972, while the satellite was in the evening quadrant near L = 5. These same substorms were identified in ground level magnetograms from auroral zone and low latitude stations. The satellite vector magnetic field records and rapid run ground magnetograms were examined for evidence of simultaneous occurrence of Pi2 magnetic pulsations. Pulsations which began abruptly were observed at the satellite during 7 of the 13 substorms studied and the pulsations occurred near the estimated time of substorm onset. These 7 pulsation events were also observed on the ground and 6 were identified in station comments as Pi2. All of the events observed were principally compressional waves, that is, pulsations in field magnitude. There were also transverse components elliptically polarized counter-clockwise looking along the field line. Periods observed ranged from 40 to 200 sec with 80 sec often the dominant period. 相似文献

The meteor radar response function is an important tool for analyzing meteor backscatter observed by radar systems. We extend previous work on the development of the response function to include a non-uniform meteor ionization profile, provided by meteor ablation theory, in contrast to what has been assumed in the past. This has the advantage that the height distribution of meteors expected to be observed by a radar meteor system may be accurately modeled. Such modeling leads to meteor height distributions that have implications for the composition of those meteoroids ablating at high altitudes which may be observed by “non-traditional” meteor radars operating at MF/HF. The response function is then employed to investigate meteor backscatter observed by narrow beam MST radars which in recent years have been used increasingly to observe meteors. 相似文献

Wind velocities at 140–200 km altitude were observed by a Low-G Accelerometer Calibration System (LOGACS) flown on an Agena satellite during a geomagnetic storm. An interesting wind reversal observed by the satellite at auroral latitudes is satisfactorily explained by the neutral air motion caused by the drift deduced from the ground-based geomagnetic data recorded at stations near the meridian of the satellite orbit. 相似文献

We present previously unpublished circular polarization (cp) measurements at 4.8 and 8.0 GHz made with the University of Michigan 26-meter prime focus telescope during 1978–1984 and results of a new observational program during the past two years. Based on the preliminary analysis of our recent data, eight sources were detected at 4.8 GHz with average degrees of cp ranging from ≤ 0.1% to ≥ 1%.The results are compared with observations at other frequencies and with linear polarization and total flux density variability in the sources. The behavior of the cp variability observed to date is consistent with stochastic variations produced by mode conversion in transient, opaque emitting regions in the sources. The observed sign changes observed between different epochs and different frequencies are not consistent with the hypothesis that sources maintain a fixed handedness of cp. 相似文献
