The brightness oscillations of a sunspot umbra in the H and Ca+ K lines are studied. The observational results are explained in terms of the resonance theory of slow-mode magnetohydrodynamic waves in the sunspot chromosphere. The thickness of the chromosphere above a sunspot varies quasi-periodically from 420 km to 1000 km. 相似文献

The observed energy spectra in synchrotron sources are power laws,N (E)=KE
–, with the distribution in peaked around 2.5. These are consistent with initially injected spectra with between 1 and 2, subsequently steepened by synchrotron losses. Contrary to the results of Kardashev (1962), it is shown that statistical acceleration when coupled with synchrotron losses lead naturally to the formation of flat stationary spectra with 1. These stationary spectra have bends near the energy at which synchrotron losses balance the energy gains by acceleration. Above this bend the spectrum tends to =2. The time evolution of an initial spectrum towards the stationary spectrum is investigated. It is suggested that the initially flat spectra with 1 to 1.5 observed in some variable sources result from an incomplete approach to the stationary spectrum, and that in sources with constant acceleration spectra with 2 are to be expected. 相似文献

The north-south incidence has been studied of 31 white-light flares observed since 1859 and of 1669 events meeting the criteria for major flares of Dodson and Hedeman (1971) for the period 1955–1974. The asymmetry in favor of the northern hemisphere increases strikingly with the importance of the events. Similarly, magnetically complex sunspot groups (Mt. Wilson classes, and) display a more pronounced asymmetry in favor of the north than non-complex groups for 1962–1970. Contrary to the flare asymmetry, the spottedness asymmetry is independent of the size of sunspots. 相似文献

It is suggested that the problem of the extent of the outer penumbra could be considered by investigating the range over which the influence of the penumbra on the oscillation regime of the surrounding medium extends. In summer 1998, velocity oscillations were observed in the vicinities of the penumbra of the NOAA 8263 sunspot. The observations were carried out in the H line (chromosphere) and in the far wing of Nii 4857.2 Å (lower photosphere) simultaneously. The oscillation regime typical for sunspot penumbrae is observed within distances of about 15 from the visible outer boundary of the penumbra. 相似文献

The continuum energy distribution of six Be stars, namely 25 Cyg, 31 Peg, HR 8758, 14 Lac, 12 Vul, and Psc, in the wavelength region 3200–7800 Å, are presented. Comparing the observed energy distributions with those of theoretical models given by Kurucz (1979), their effective temperatures are determined.A near-infrared excess emission at wavelengths above 6000 Å is seen in most of the stars. 相似文献

We determine empirical damping constants for 73 selected Fe i lines following the method of Gurtovenko and Kondrashova (1980), employing high-quality observations and the accurate list of Fe i oscillator strengths by Gurtovenko and Kostik (1980).The results show: (i) No increase of the enhancement factor to van der Waals broadening with excitation potential, as predicted by Edmunds (1975), and with the frequency of the transition (Figure 1); (ii) a substantial part of the commonly-used enhancement factor for weaker lines is not due to collisional damping (Figure 2), but to a misrepresentation of the inhomogeneous structure of the deep photosphere. This false damping effect is not seen in the stronger lines which yield an average damping constant : 1.36 1.5 6. 相似文献

The High Energy Transient Experiment (HETE) will be able to perform multiwavelength observations of-ray and X-ray bursts. HETE will potentially be able to localize-ray bursts to a precision of 20 arc-minutes if significant X-ray flux is detected from the burst; a precision of 20 arc-seconds is possible if there is also significant UV radiation from the burst. HETE will broadcast information about bursts detected within seconds of their detection. This VHF-band broadcast will be received at a number of secondary ground stations (SGS) dedicated to HETE, and forwarded to a central distribution site at MIT, from which it is sent to interested observers via Internet. 相似文献

The velocity field has been mapped for 42 min in an area 80 by 85 containing a unipolar sunspot. Apparent shifts of Fe i
5233 were measured photoelectrically using a rectangular scanning aperture 1.6 × 4.0. The sunspot did not exert a marked influence on the generally random pattern of oscillations at a period of 300 s. Discrete periods of oscillation both longer and shorter than 300 s were excited within the enhanced magnetic field boundaries of this spot. Umbral oscillations at periods near 180 s were detected in agreement with independent observations of the same spot during the previous solar rotation.NRC Postdoctoral Fellow, 1969–71. 相似文献

Observations have been made in H of the vertical velocity distribution in a sunspot. Over the umbra the pattern consists of structures of scale-size 2–3. The velocity distribution undergoes oscillations with a period of about 165 s and typical amplitude ±3 km s–1, but the pattern breaks down after one or two cycles because the period of oscillation varies typically by ±20 s from place to place. Transverse waves develop in the outer 0.1 of the umbral radius and propagate outwards with a velocity of about 20 km s–1, becoming gradually invisible by or before the outer penumbral boundary; the amplitude is about ±1 km s–1 at the umbra-penumbra border.The penumbral waves are believed to be basically of the Alfvén type, with 3 × 10–8 g cm–3. The umbral oscillations presumably represent gravity waves. In both cases the fluxes are inadequate by two orders of magnitude to account for the sunspot energy deficit. 相似文献

A general formula is derived for calculating the -ray spectrum resulting from the annihilation of cosmic-ray positrons. This formula is used to calculate annihilation--ray spectra from various equilibrium spectra of secondary galactic positrons. These spectra are then compared with the -ray spectra produced by other astrophysical processes.Particular attention is paid to the form of the -ray spectrum resulting from the annihilation of positrons having kinetic energies below 5 keV. It is found that for mean leakage times out of the galaxy of less than 400 million years, most of the positrons annihilating near rest come from the -decay of unstable nuclei produced in cosmic-ray p-C12, p-N14, and p-O16 interactions, rather than from pi-meson decay. It is further found that the large majority of these positrons will annihilate from an S state of positronium and that 3/4 of these will produce a three-photon annihilation continuum rather than the two-photon line spectrum at 0.51 MeV. The results of numerical calculations of the -ray fluxes from these processes are given. It is concluded that annihilation -rays from the galactic halo may remain forever masked by a metagalactic continuum. However, an 0.51 MeV line from the disk may well be detectable. It is most reasonable to assume that this line is formed predominantly by the annihilation of the CNO -decay positrons. Under this assumption, the intensity of the line becomes a sensitive measure of the galactic cosmic-ray flux below 1000 MeV/nucleon. 相似文献

Spectrophotometric observations of P/Halley are presented for four nights in the optical region (3200–7000 ) during post-perihelion period. Emission features due to CN, CH, C3 and C2 molecules are identified and the total apparent fluxes in each emission band are measured. It is found that the comet display large variations in the emission bands as well as continuum. 相似文献

Grand unified theories predict baryon number violating interactions and one of the implications of this is the possible existence of neutron-antineutron oscillations. The neutron-antineutron oscillations have been considered in the neutron rich astrophysical sources such as solar flares, supernovae explosions, neutron stars and the nucleosynthetic phase of the early universe in order to partly account for the antiproton flux of the cosmic rays at low energies and the -ray emission, at GeV energies. Low magnetic fields and high neutron concentrations provide the right environment for the production of antineutrons and hence antiprotons and GeV rays. 相似文献

A rotating Supermassive Magnetized Disk is proposed as a model for all the violent phenomena occurring in the nuclei of galaxies, in the form of quasars, Lacertids, radio galaxies, Seyferts, exploding galaxies, etc. The cold disk feeds a fast-rotating supermassive core (some 103 Schwarzschild radii in extent), which emits (1) an unsteady thermal wind of filamentary geometry, (2) Low-Frequency magnetic Waves, and (3) relativistic electrons and positrons. The latter reach high -factors by phase-riding the LFWs, emit synchro-Compton radiation on crossing scattered waves (from -ray energies down to radio frequencies), and are eventually focused into two antipodal relativistic beams by their frozen-in toroidal magnetic field. Torsional oscillations between the core and disk give rise to a pulsed injection, and a breathing double-onion shape of the LFW windzone can explain the superluminal jetlike appearance. A big nuclear explosion ends each duty cycle, but many smaller explosions prevent the settling core from collapsing. In this model, the helium production of galactic centres is comparable to the observed cosmic helium. 相似文献

Propagation of velocity waves are investigated in the solar chromosphere, with a special view to high frequencies (periods 60 s). Four line profiles have been observed during 27 mn with the Sacramento Peak vacuum telescope (H, 3933, 8498 and 8542 Ca ii). Three Fourier analysis are performed according to the location in the cells of the chromospheric network. Phase-shifts and amplitude ratios between the line Doppler shifts are computed as functions of frequency. The pollution of high frequency results by energetic low frequency oscillations is investigated.H Doppler shifts are probably affected by the large width of line formation layers (low transfer function). Using formation altitudes for Doppler shifts previously computed for the infra-red lines, we show that acoustic waves propagating upwards cannot account for the observations. In particular, the phase-shifts between oscillations in different chromospheric layers are much smaller than theoretical predictions. As a first attempt for a qualitative agreement, we suggest that most of the high frequency oscillations (10–15 mHz) are magnetoacoustic waves, travelling in layers where the gradient of the Alfvén-speed cannot be neglected, and reflected at the top of the chromosphere. The amplitudes of these waves are probably underestimated as derived from the observed Doppler shifts. 相似文献

It is well known that sunspots are dark. This statement is not correct in the sunspot atmosphere between the chromosphere and the corona, where sunspots often are brighter than their surroundings. The brightest feature in the sunspot transition region is called a sunspot plume. Not all sunspots contain a plume. We find that 20 out of 21 sunspots show a plume when one magnetic polarity dominates the sunspot region out to a distance of 50 from the sunspot. Most sunspots show downflows that exceed 25 km s–1 in the sunspot plumes at temperatures close to 250000 K. This downflow is not maintained by inflow from the corona, but by gas at transition region temperatures, streaming in flow channels from locations well outside the sunspot. We suggest that this inflow is a necessary requirement for the sunspot plume to occur and present a working hypothesis for the origin of sunspot plumes. This paper is the first thorough spectral analysis of sunspot plumes. It is based on simultaneous observations of ten or six EUV emission lines in 42 sunspot regions with the Coronal Diagnostic Spectrometer – CDS on the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory – SOHO. The line profiles are studied in detail with another SOHO instrument, the Solar Ultraviolet Measurements of Emitted Radiation – SUMER. 相似文献

Large field H observations of the Milky Way between Carina and Aquila were made through a narrow interference filter 15 wide. Characteristic large-scale features of the observed region are extended emission areas in Carina, Norma-Scorpius and Scutum-Sagittarius and some weak isolated nebulosities near the Coal Sac, Centauri and Normae. H photographs, a chart mapping the emission, and a list of identified emission regions are given. 相似文献

The oscillations of a homogeneous, compressible, self gravitating fluid spheroid in static equilibrium with a poloidal magnetic field inside and a dipole type field outside are studied using the second order tensor virial equations. It is found that for small values of the eccentricity, the equilibrium model is dynamically stable provided the usual criterion of pulsative stability in the absence of a magnetic field (>4/3) is satisfied. The magnetic field removes the accidental degeneracy of the radial and the non-radial modes of oscillation which exists for =1.6 in the absence of a magnetic field. 相似文献

The distribution of times t between coronal mass ejections (CMEs) in the Large Angle and Spectrometric Coronagraph (LASCO) CME catalog for the years 1996–2001 is examined. The distribution exhibits a power-law tail (t) with an index –2.36±0.11 for large waiting times (t>10 hours). The power-law index of the waiting-time distribution varies with the solar cycle: for the years 1996–1998 (a period of low activity), the power-law index is –1.86±0.14, and for the years 1999–2001 (a period of higher activity), the index is –2.98±0.20. The observed CME waiting-time distribution, and its variation with the cycle, may be understood in terms of CMEs occurring as a time-dependent Poisson process. The CME waiting-time distribution is compared with that for greater than C1 class solar flares in the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) catalog for the same years. The flare and CME waiting-time distributions exhibit power-law tails with very similar indices and time variation. 相似文献

We have examined six solar neutron events measured by satellite instruments and/or neutron monitors (NM) to understand the relationship between the intensity–time profiles of the -ray lines, the pion-related -rays, and the neutron production. In all six events the solar neutron production was clearly time-extended. We find that neutron emission as detected by NMs most closely follows the emission of pion-related -rays, whereas lower energy neutron production may follow that of nuclear -ray line emissions. Although this distinction is not unexpected, it is safe to say that the 2.223 MeV -ray line from neutron capture on hydrogen is a poor measure of the neutron production at energies >200 MeV. During the three events on 1982, June 3, 1990, May 24 and 1991, June 4 solar neutrons with energies greater than 200 MeV were recorded by NMs. The NM increases on 1982, June 3 and 1990, May 24 can be modeled using the time profile of the pion-related -rays. For the 1991, June 4 event the NM signal was small but lasted for 60 min and the high-energy -ray data available to us are insufficient to conclude unambiguously that the high-energy neutron production followed the pion-related -rays. In the other three events on 1991, June 9, 11, and 15 solar neutrons with energies 10–100 MeV were observed by the COMPTEL -ray instrument on the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory. The duration of the low-energy neutron production on 1991, June 9 corresponded clearly to the high-energy and not to the low-energy -ray emission. 相似文献
