A theory for the brightness fluctuations of the Sun as a star under the effect of its global oscillations has been developed. Formulas for the darkening and visibility of p-modes are derived and their calculations are performed in the local approximation for adiabatic oscillations. Observational data from the DIFOS multichannel photometer onboard the CORONAS-F satellite are used to solve the inverse problem of determining the amplitude of the five-minute temperature fluctuations in the solar photosphere as a function of the height. Analysis of the solution and comparison with the results of other authors suggest that the predicted temperature waves resulting from a linear transformation of p-modes in the photosphere exist in the photosphere. The wavelength and phase velocity of the temperature waves are considerably smaller than those of acoustic waves. It turns out that the solar brightness fluctuations should be produced mainly by the temperature waves in the photosphere, not by the p-modes themselves. The darkening function for the brightness fluctuations is oscillatory in behavior, while the visibility function can differ markedly from that for the Doppler shifts of spectral lines produced by p-modes. These properties are important for interpreting the observations of stellar oscillations based on stellar brightness fluctuations.  相似文献

A technique for analyzing periodic processes based on the introduction of an analytical signal is described. This technique allows the instantaneous frequency, amplitude, and phase of oscillations to be obtained. The data on solar brightness fluctuations collected with the DIFOS multichannel photometer onboard the CORONAS-F satellite are processed. The p-mode spectral lines are broadened mainly by amplitude fluctuations, while the frequency stability appears to be high (~10?4). A method for separating signals with close frequencies is developed. The p-mode with l = 0 and n = 21 is used as an example to show that the separation of signals with close frequencies is possible when the conventional spectral methods are inefficient. Analysis of the phase shifts between the oscillations observed in various optical channels of the DIFOS photometer has revealed that the five-minute oscillations travel from the upper and deep photospheric layers toward the middle photospheric layers. This effect directly proves that the evanescent p-modes in the photosphere are nonadiabatic.  相似文献

We present the results of our calculations of the absorbed radiation doses onboard the International Space Station (ISS) based on CORONAS-F data on the spectra of protons in near-Earth space and on the conditions of their penetration into the polar caps. Our estimates are compared with the dosimetry data onboard the ISS and with the results of similar calculations based on GOES-10 (Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite) data. There is satisfactory agreement between the absorbed doses estimated from CORONAS-F data and the measurements on the ISS. When the data from the high-apogee GOES-10 satellite are used, the agreement between calculations and measurements is considerably poorer. This is probably due to the influence of solar cosmic ray proton penetration into the polar caps.  相似文献

The main results of the SPIRIT experiment on imaging spectroscopy of the Sun in the soft X-ray and extreme vacuum UV range are presented. The results were obtained onboard the CORONAS-F satellite, which has been operating since July 2001. More than 40 thousand observation sessions were performed during the experiment. About a million solar images and spectra (more than 250 Gb of information) were obtained, including monotemperature images of the solar atmosphere in six spectral regions, corresponding to temperatures from 0.05 to 2 MK; full-Sun spectral images (spectroheliograms) in more than 150 lines (177–207 Å and 285–335 Å, T from ~0.05 to 20 MK); images of the full Sun in the monochrome Mg XII line (8.42 Å, T ~ 10 MK); images of the solar corona at a distance of up to five solar radii; continuous series (up to 20 days long) of observations with high time resolution (40–100 s); observations of the flare dynamics, including the preflare, initial, and main phases, with a resolution of 7 s, and data on the absorption of X-ray and XUV solar radiation in the upper atmosphere of the Earth. The study was performed for the maximum of the 11-year solar activity cycle and for its decrease phase.  相似文献

Results of the search and investigations of the periodic processes in the high-temperature plasma of solar flares are presented. Such plasma with a temperature of more than 5 million K is formed mainly in the corona and is observed on the images of the Sun as sources of soft X rays (SX). In the paper, data from the Russian SPIRIT experiment on the satellite CORONAS-F, that occurred from August 2001 to December 2005, are used. A unique duration and temporal resolution of the observation of the Sun in the SX range were used during the experiment. As a consequence of the processing of these data, especially, several thousand images of the NOAA active regions 9825 and 9830 obtained from February 19 to 22, 2009, stable oscillations with a period of 5–20 min in radiation from flares were successfully discovered and the connection between the type of flare and its power spectrum was established. An interpretation of the obtained results is presented.  相似文献

Observational data on solar irradiance oscillations from the VIRGO (SOHO) and DIFOS-F (CORONAS-F) experiments are used to obtain stratifications of perturbed hydrogen concentrations that produce isothermal oscillations in the solar photosphere. The study reveals the nodes and antinodes of the oscillations in the solar photosphere. A simulation of long-period isothermal oscillations from the DIFOS data shows that the nodes and antinodes of Δn/n tend to shift towards lower photosphere layers with a decrease in the oscillation frequency.  相似文献

The solar flare of November 4, 2001, at 16.03–16.57 UT (GOES soft X-ray class X1.0, optical importance 3B, and coordinates N06W180) is used as an example to investigate the relationship between sporadic VHF radio bursts and charged particle fluxes (of both solar and magnetospheric origins) at an altitude of 500 km. The radio background intensity was recorded at frequencies of 280, 300, 151, and 500 MHz by nondirectional ground-based mid-latitude radio antennas spaced ~700 km apart. The results of our radio measurements are compared with the dynamics of 0.2–12 MeV electron and 1–5 MeV proton fluxes based on data from the MKL instrument onboard the CORONAS-F satellite (the orbit altitude and inclination are 500 km and 82.5°, respectively).  相似文献

The paper reviews observations and the most important results obtained with the CORONAS-F satellite over more than three years of its orbiting in 2001–2004. The observations and the related new results concern global oscillations of the Sun, active regions and solar flares, the lower corona, ultraviolet and X-ray solar radiation, and solar cosmic rays.  相似文献

We discuss the results of our simultaneous observations of interplanetary and geomagnetic field fluctuations as well as solar wind parameters and meter radio emission in near-Earth space at mid-latitudes (near Kharkov) based on ground measurements before and during a unique magnetic storm on October 22, 1999. The electron flux dynamics in interplanetary space, geostationary orbit, and the magnetosphere is analyzed to find the interconnection with UHF radio background bursts at a frequency of 151 MHz. We conclude that the acceleration processes in the inner magnetospheric layers affect the generation processes of high-frequency radio bursts and that this phenomenon should be studied further using the SINP (MSU) instruments onboard the CORONAS-F satellite.  相似文献

The intensity and velocity fluctuations, observed simultaneously, are a powerful diagnostic tool of the dynamics of the solar atmosphere. The phase relation between the fluctuations can improve our knowledge of the solar background, its relation with the acoustic sources, and its interaction with the solar acoustic oscillations. Furthermore, the opposite asymmetries observed along the p-mode line profiles in the intensity and velocity power spectra contain information about the source of the solar acoustic oscillations. For these reasons, it is relevant to study the height dependence of the asymmetries and phases in the solar atmosphere. In this paper, we present the results from the analysis of observations performed by the VAMOS instrument in the potassium 769.9 nm line and Na i D lines, and compare the measured phases with those obtained at different layers in the solar atmosphere by different instruments, spanning from the base of the photosphere to the low chromosphere.  相似文献

Detailed computations of synthetic solar limb curves are carried out for the purpose of estimating the effects of inhomogeneities in the solar atmosphere upon the observed limb position. Methods of determining the limb position given a solar limb curve are compared. The method of finding the locus of a fixed intensity level with respect to the average disk-center intensity at a given wavelength seems to be the most tractable definition to use on noise free data. It is found that limb fluctuations due to the solar 5-min p-mode oscillations produce a fluctuation in the limb height of about 6 km (0.008 arc sec) rms. Limb fluctuations due to granulation and chromospheric structure are much smaller. The wavelength dependence of the solar H? opacity causes the height of the limb to increase by about 35 km between 400 and 850 nm, thus leading to a ‘limb reddening’ at the extreme limb of the Sun.  相似文献

We consider the effects of the absorption of solar XUV radiation by the Earth's atmosphere that were observed in the solar images obtained with the TEREK-K telescope onboard the Coronas-I satellite in May–June 1994 at low solar activity and with the SPIRIT instrumentation onboard the Coronas-F satellite in October–November 2001 at maximum solar activity. The solar images were recorded during the satellite occultation: in the 175- and 304-A spectral ranges onboard Coronas-I with the TEREK-K telescope and in the 175-, 304-, and 8.42-A ranges onboard Coronas-F with the SPIRIT instrumentation. Based on the XUV solar images obtained during atmospheric sounding, apart from the total absorption, we can determine the direction of the atmospheric density gradient and study the local absorption variations with altitude on spatial scales of less than 1 km. The described method can significantly supplement the data obtained in studies of the upper atmosphere by the methods of mass spectrometry, incoherent radar scattering, and the drag of orbital spacecraft.  相似文献

In this study we discuss variations of the radio emission from the Quiet Sun Areas (QSA) at centimeter wavelength (1.76 cm). Data were obtained from Nobeyama Radioheliograph (NoRH). Oscillations of selected areas were studied carefully from data taken over one week. We try to find quasi‐periodic solar oscillations from the QSA. We used the traditional Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), Global Wavelet Spectrum (GWS) and Wavelet (Morlet) for studying signals in the frequency/time‐frequency domain. We used the Fisher randomization test to verify the significance of the observed signal. Instrumental and sky noises were studied using a cross‐correlation analysis. Additionally, a single pixel analysis were done. Wide ranges of solar oscillation periods were found from the Quiet Sun Area (QSA): 3–15, 35–70, and 90 minutes. Some physical explanations are suggested for these oscillations. However, it is not possible to give a conclusive statement about the origin of the long quasi‐periodic (>60 min) oscillations from the QSA (© 2011 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

The PICARD mission is a CNES micro‐satellite to be launched in 2009. Its goal is to better understand the Sun and the potential impact of its activity on earth climate by measuring simultaneously the solar total and spectral irradiance, diameter, shape and oscillations. We present the scientific objectives, instrumental requirements and data products of the helioseismology program of PICARD which aims to observe the low to medium l p‐mode oscillations in intensity and search for g‐mode oscillation signatures at the limb.

The relative intensities of FeXI-Fe XIII lines in the range 176–207 Å have been measured for various plasma structures of the solar corona using data from the XUV spectroheliograph of the SPIRIT instrumentation onboard the CORONAS-F satellite with an improved spectral sensitivity calibration. Electron density diagnostics of a plasma with temperatures 0.8–2.5 MK has been carried out in active regions, quiet-Sun and off-limb areas, and, for the first time, in extremely intense solar flares. The density range is (1.6–8) × 109 cm?3 for flares, (0.6–1.6) × 109 cm?3 for active regions, and ~5 × 108 cm?3 for quiet-Sun areas. The calibration accuracy of the spectral sensitivity for the spectroheliograph has been analyzed based on spectral lines with density-independent intensity ratios.  相似文献

The long period dynamics of Sun-synchronous orbits near the critical inclination 116.6° are investigated. It is known that, at the critical inclination, the average perigee location is unchanged by Earth oblateness. For certain values of semimajor axis and eccentricity, orbit plane precession caused by Earth oblateness is synchronous with the mean orbital motion of the apparent Sun (a Sun-synchronism). Sun-synchronous orbits have been used extensively in meteorological and remote sensing satellite missions. Gravitational perturbations arising from an aspherical Earth, the Moon, and the Sun cause long period fluctuations in the mean argument of perigee, eccentricity, inclination, and ascending node. Double resonance occurs because slow oscillations in the perigee and Sun-referenced ascending node are coupled through the solar gravity gradient. It is shown that the total number and infinitesimal stability of equilibrium solutions can change abruptly over the Sun-synchronous range of semimajor axis values (1.54 to 1.70 Earth radii). The effect of direct solar radiation pressure upon certain stable equilibria is investigated.  相似文献

We present new results about the phase difference between the intensity and velocity fluctuations of the solar photosphere obtained with the Velocity And Magnetic Observations of the Sun (VAMOS) instrument, which uses the magneto-optical filter (MOF) technique. Before this observing run, we applied the calibration method described in Magrì, Oliviero, and Severino (Solar Phys. 232, 159, 2005) to reduce the instrumental cross-talk which was present in previous VAMOS data. The quality of this calibration, which can be easily applied to any MOF-based instrument, has been confirmed by comparing with the MOF transmission-profile measurements obtained with a diode laser system. Finally, we discuss the new VAMOS phase-difference value in relation to data obtained by other authors in the same potassium spectral line and in other lines that can be used to study nonadiabatic effects of solar global oscillations.  相似文献

The Luminosity Oscillations Imager (LOI) is a part of the VIRGO instrument aboard the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO). The scientific objective of the LOI experiment is to identify and characterize pressure and internal gravity oscillations of the Sun by observing the radiance variations. The LOI is a low-resolution imager with 12 pixels, for the measurement of the radiance distribution over the solar disk at 500 nm. The low resolution capability of the instrument allows the identification of individual azimuthal orders for l = 0 to 7, without suffering the mixing that affects integrated solar disk instruments. The performance, calibrations and instrumental effects of the LOI are described together with the procedures for extracting the solar p modes.  相似文献

Our main goal is to show that the spatial and temporal dynamics of the temperature content for plasma structures in the solar corona can be described quantitatively in principle, which is necessary for understanding the formation mechanisms of soft X-ray emission. An approach based on a consistent modeling of complex data from the CORONAS-F, GOES, and RHESSI satellites is suggested. A basically new element of this approach is the use of time series of monochromatic full-Sun images in the X-ray MgXII 8.42 Å line and EUV lines obtained in the SPIRIT experiment onboard CORONAS-F. Two inversion procedures have been used to determine the volume and column differential emission measures defined by the Stieltjes integral: an optimization one based on a multitemperature parametric model and an iterative one based on the Bayesian theorem, respectively. The calculations with coronal abundances agree with the RHESSI data within the experimental error limits, while those with photospheric abundances give no satisfactory agreement. The relatively cold (with temperature 2–4 MK) and transient (4–10 MK) plasmas are shown to play a significant role in producing soft X-ray emission during flare events and in their energy budget. The spatial electron density and temperature distributions and their time evolution have been obtained for long-duration events that were first observed in the monochromatic MgXII channel and were previously called “spiders.” The method used has allowed us to verify the absolute intercalibration of the fluxes recorded in all experiments and to reference the SPIRIT MgXII images to the solar disk. We also consider possible flare plasma heating mechanisms for impulsive and long-duration (spider) flare events.  相似文献

The “Fast X-ray Monitor” (BRM) instrument operated in the complex of the scientific instruments onboard the CORONAS-PHOTON satellite from February 19, 2009, until December 1, 2009. The instrument is intended for the registration of the hard X-ray radiation of solar flares in the 20–600 keV energy range in six differential energy channels (20–30, 30–40, 40–50, 50–70, 70–130, and 130–600 keV) with temporal resolution to 1 ms. In the instrument, a detector based on the YAP: Ce scintillator is used; this detector is 70 mm in diameter and 10 mm thick (the decay time is about 28 ns). For the decrease of the back-ground charge of the detector, the collimator limiting the angle of view of the instrument of value 12° is mounted over the scintillator. The effective area of the detector amounts to 27.7 cm2 (at the X-ray radiation energy 80 keV), and the dead time of the detector is 1 μs. Over the operation onboard the CORONAS-PHOTON satellite, the BRM instrument has registered gamma ray burst series and, perhaps, one solar flare of the class C1.3 on October 26, 2009.  相似文献
