An attempt is made to develop a phenomenological interpretation of stellar chromospheres. The following problems are examined: observed emission powers of magnesium chromospheres on stars based on the ultraviolet doublet, 2800 Mgii, observations; dependence of chromosphere emission on spectral and luminosity classes; stellar chromospheres as an accidental event; chromospheres of stars-components of binary systems; stars with the chromospheres of solar type (S) and nonsolar (NS) type; distribution of stars by means of the type of their chromosphere on luminosity class; stars with superpower magnesium emission; emission measures for both the magnesium and calcium chromospheres; interrelation between chromosphere, transition zone and corona; chromospheric activity and rotation of stars; possibility of the existence of chromospheres on hot stars; phenomenological picture of stellar chromospheres; stars without the line 2800 Mgii, in emission or in absorption; syndrome of red giant HD 4174. At the end, the problem of heating of stellar chromospheres is discussed.  相似文献

The problem of the detection or discovery of RS CVn-type close binary systems with the aid of the magnesium emission doublet 2800 Mgii is discussed. On the example of a star, HD 102077, the possibility of such an approach is shown. The determining factor is the magnitude of the measureless parameterR(Mgii), that is, the relative power of the magnesium doublet emission. For the normal Main-Sequence stars the magnesium emission has a purely chromospheric origin andR(Mgii) 1 (in units of 10–5). However, in the case of close binary systems of RS CVn-typeR(Mgii) 100. Wit the help of IUE it is foundR(Mgii) 100 for the star HD 102077 and, therefore, it is identified with RS CVn-type objects in which the magnesium doublet emission is generated in the intercomponent medium by gaseous matter and is transferred from one component of the system to the other. The basic physical parameters of the intercomponent medium in the case of HD 102077 are obtained.  相似文献

The techniques and principal results of observational studies of stellar activity are summarized. Both chromospheric and coronal emission clearly track surface magnetic field properties, but it is not well known how the detailed relation between the emission and surface magnetic fields varies with spectral type. For lower Main-Sequence stars of the same spectral type, there is clear evidence of a close relationship between mean activity level and rotation period P rot. There is also less definitive evidence for a similar dependence on convective overturn time c , such that activity depends on the single parameter Ro = P rot/ c . For single stars, stellar rotation, and magnetic activity both decline smoothly with age. This implies a feedback between angular momentum loss rate and activity level. Temporal variations in mean stellar activity level mimic the solar cycle only for old stars like the Sun, being much more irregular for younger stars. The characteristic timescale of the variations (the cycle period) appears to depend on Ro for old stars, but shows no clear dependence on either rotation rate or spectral type for younger stars. Further data on mean activity and its variation for a large number of lower Main-Sequence stars should contribute significantly to our understanding of the causes of stellar magnetic activity.  相似文献

The suggestion that an umbra flash may be caused by a magneto-acoustic wave phenomenon is examined. It is suggested that the flash in Ca ii lines is formed during the compressional stage in a magneto-acoustic wave. The compression which is assumed to be adiabatic will produce a rise in temperature and a corresponding increase in number of Ca ii atoms. The variations in line emission (absorption) coefficient of the Ca ii K-line are calculated on this assumption and are found to be in general agreement with the observed variations. Other observed quantities as proper motion, magnitude of line shift etc., also agree with the wave hypothesis. Further observations which may serve as tests on the wave hypothesis are suggested.  相似文献

Additional observations of He ii (304 Å) and Si xi (303 Å) were obtained from a high resolution rocket spectrograph flown on 30 August, 1973 and 20 January, 1975. The profile of the He ii (304 Å) line is everywhere clearly non-gaussian across the solar disk, except in bright active areas. Near the limb, the profile is distinctly reversed. The profile of the Si xi (303 Å) line is essentially gaussian for all regions across the solar disk. Measurements of the He ii/Si xi intensity ratio indicate that the average value of this ratio across the disk depends markedly on solar activity, being about 101 for a moderate level of activity and 301 for a quiet Sun.  相似文献

We analyze Ca ii K-line profiles of one flare and EUV continuum observations of two other flares in order to infer values for the temperature enhancements (over active region values) produced in the upper photosphere around and above the temperature minimum region. The results, obtained through a partial redistribution calculation of the Ca ii K-line profiles and an LTE approach to the continuum observations, show that the flare temperature minimum is depressed some two scale heights below its preflare level, and that substantial temperature enhancements are produced even at this depth. Estimates for the energy release in these photospheric layers are given, and are found to be comparable with that released in chromospheric H and L emission.We then turn our attention to the investigation of possible heating mechanisms which might be responsible for the observed enhancements. Bombardment by both electrons and protons, and irradiation by soft X-rays, are each considered and found to be largely ineffective, due to the large attenuation of flux by photospheric depths, unless new ideas on the precise nature of these mechanisms are invoked, particularly if the same mechanism is also to explain the observed chromospheric emissions. We therefore conclude that it is most likely that some other mechanism must be advocated in order to explain the observed heating. Possibilities for this are (a) heating by EUV radiation, (b) proton beams with low dispersion energy spectra centered around 10–20 MeV, and (c) localized heating at temperature minimum levels.On leave from: Department of Astronomy, The University, Glasgow G12 8QQ, Scotland, United Kingdom.  相似文献

A positive correlation is suggested between solar rotation rate and solar cycle length for cycles 12 to 20. This result seems to be opposite to recent observations in solar-type stars and the Sun and yields inverse correlations between cycle lengths and chromospheric activity, but it agrees with previous work with solar-type stars and the Sun suggesting a positive correlation between cycle length and rotation rate. Estimates of solar cycle length for the Maunder minimum suggest a length 17 yr.  相似文献

While evaluating the chromospheric variability (solar cycle related or any other) using the Ca II K line (3933.684 Å) as an indicator, an essential prerequisite is the knowledge of the profile of a truly quiet Sun in the integrated light. Such a profile can serve as a bench mark over which enhancements can be measured, particularly when modelling variability. This paper describes how such a K-line profile has been derived for the quiet Sun using disc-integrated light.  相似文献

A study is made of several ATM flares, to investigate the effect of soft X-ray heating at chromospheric levels. It is shown that the amount of energy released in Ly and Lyman continuum emissions, and their spatial and temporal behavior, in compact flares correspond to what is expected from model calculations. An additional source of heating, which could be heat conduction, has to be postulated to explain ribbons of enhanced L and C ii 1336 Å emission in large flares. As expected, the effect of X-ray heating is more important in small compact flares than in large ones.  相似文献

A study of the solar Ba ii spectrum leads to a solar abundance of barium of log ba = = 2.11±0.12, on the scale log h = 12. The observed asymmetry of the resonance line 4554 is consistent with an isotopic abundance ratio equal to the terrestrial one. The meteoritic Ba/Si abundance ratio found in carbonaceous chondrites appears to exceed the solar ratio by 0.1 to 0.2 dex (Section 5).The broadening by collisions with hydrogen atoms is determined from the solar spectrum (Section 4). Damping half-widths, h, of the three stronger Ba ii lines turn out to be larger by a factor of about 3.0 than predicted from pure van der Waals interaction of dipoles. Departures from LTE appear to be present in the cores of the resonance lines and of the lines arising from the metastable 5D levels (Section 6). The equivalent widths, however, remain practically unaffected.Equivalent widths of neutral barium lines are predicted and some new identifications of photospheric Ba i lines are suggested (Section 7).  相似文献

New observations of solar spicules at Pulkovo, made simultaneously in 4 spectral regions, are described. The profiles of the H, D3, H, H and K lines were derived for 23 spicules.The spicules occur usually in narrow bundles and can be resolved into separate objects only due to a dispersion of radial velocities inside the bundle. The spicules in D3 are diffuse with faint interspicular emission.The emission of hydrogen, helium and Caii originate in different parts of spicules with different radial and turbulent velocities. The core of a spicule with Caii emission is a narrow rope several tens of km in diameter for the normal section. The optical thickness of a spicule in H is approximately 1.0 and the atomic density varies from 1011 to 1012 cm–3.The helium emission in spicules seems to be produced by different mechanisms, one of them being the external radiation of corona and subcoronal matter.The model of a solar spicule is discussed.  相似文献

Satellite observations of velocity and intensity oscillations were made of the upper chromospheric line C ii 1336. The dominant period of oscillation is 300 s, with little evidence of the power peak in the range 150–200 s which has been observed in other chromospheric lines. Peak-to-peak amplitudes are 2 km s–1 and 8% in velocity and intensity, respectively. Tentative evidence for 900-s periodicity is presented. Relative phase measurements show that maximum intensity for the 300-s oscillation leads maximum blueshift by approximately 145 s. Comparison of line and background (scattered light) intensity variation shows upward wave propagation, with time delays between the 1800 continuum and C ii 1336 variation of 27 s and 70 s for different cases.  相似文献

We have compared three years of daily CaII K-line images from the Big Bear Solar Observatory (BBSO) with HI Lyman irradiance data from the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS). The daily full-disk CaII K-line images are reduced to a new index of integrated excess emission, which reproduces both the 27 day rotational modulation and the solar cycle decrease in Ly irradiance. Our analysis shows that while plages reproduce the 27-day variation quite well, the total K-line emission excess above the quiet background is needed to reproduce the secular solar cycle trend in the Ly irradiance. The resulting K-line index exhibits a high degree of correlation (0.9) with the time series of measured Ly flux.  相似文献

The catalog of the classical WR stars which have the emission doublet Ovi 3811, 3834 in their optical spectra (the catalog of the WR-Ovi stars) and the results of the spectroscopic investigations of the WR-Ovi stars HD 16523, HD 17638, and HD 192103 are presented. Rapid spectral variability of the emission doublet Ovi 3811, 3834 in the spectra of WR-Ovi stars HD 16523, HD 17638, and of the emission band 3680-3780 Å in the spectra of the WR-Ovi star HD 16523 is observed. It is shown that spectral sub-types of the stars HD 16523 and HD 17638 as estimated from different criteria are uncertain. We argue that the WR-Ovi stars HD 16523 and HD 17638, the optical spectra of which display emission doublet Ovi 3811, 3834, may be considered as WO5 stars. The sub-type WO5 is proposed for the first time. Classification criteria of the WO5 sub-type are represented. The possible contribution of the ions Heii to the emission at 3811 Å and 3834 Å is investigated. Thez-distributions of WR-Ovi stars and WR stars with the probable relativistic companions are found to be similar.  相似文献

One-hundred and three nearby bright Main-Sequence stars of spectral type F and G have been searched for infrared excess in order to find out Vega-like characteristics. In our sample of bright Main-Sequence F and G stars none of the G-type stars show infrared excess but 4 out of 28 F-type stars are Vega-like and the equilibrium distances of dust shells are within the planet-forming region.  相似文献

Radiative lifetimes have been determined by the beam-foil method for some excited states in the singly ionized rare earths Pr ii, Tm ii, and Lu ii, in order to test the reliability of the transition probabilities and oscillator strengths found by Corliss and Bozman and usually applied for solar abundance determinations. Correction factors of 4.5, 2.5, and 0.3 should be applied to Corliss and Bozman's values for Pr ii, Tm ii, and Lu ii, respectively. These corrections eliminate the discrepancies between the abundance in the solar photosphere and in meteorites for Pr and Tm. Radiative lifetimes for Ce iii are also reported.  相似文献

The formation of the solar Caii K-line core is studied under the assumption of a two component chromosphere for many atmosphere models, which are tested by comparing observed and calculated average intensity profiles at several places on the solar disk. Non-LTE-line profile calculations are made using model atoms of two and three bound levels while the value and depth of the temperature minimum and turbulent velocity gradient are varied. A critique of several broad types of models is provided.Limb darkening of the entire core, a K1 radiation temperature of 4300 K and increasing limbward separation of the K2 peaks are predicted by a combination of a cool component, covering 90% of the solar disk, and a hot component, representing the bright calcium network. The optimum cool component is characterized by a 4200 K temperature minimum and low ( 1 km/sec) microturbulent velocities. The hot component begins its outward temperature rise in the photosphere at 4300 K and is never more than 500 K hotter than the cool component.Publications of the Goethe Link Observatory, Indiana University, No. 116.Presently at New Mexico State University, Las Cruces, New Mexico.  相似文献

Motions in arch filament systems   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
A new analysis of H filtergrams and H spectra of arch filament systems (AFS) shows that material flows downwards in both branches of the arch filaments (v 50 km/sec) while the top of the arches ascends (v 10 km/sec). It is suggested that AFS are produced by the magnetic field which expands, between growing spots, into higher levels carrying material with it that subsequently slides down along the magnetic field following gravity.AFS are also visible in the K line of Caii; however, there they appear less pronounced than in H and they are less conspicuous than the K-line quiescent filaments. There is some indication that AFS just cover a supergranulum (Ca network cell) with material streaming down at the border of the cell.No indication was found for a close relationship between AFS and flares.Mitteilung aus dem Fraunhofer Institut Nr. 91.  相似文献

The analysis of the dynamic evolution of the chromospheric electron density during solar flares is fundamental for the testing of solar flare models. For this purpose we developed a digital imaging spectrograph for the observation of higher Balmer lines below 400 nm with a time resolution of 1 s and an algorithm for the determination of the electron density from the observed line profiles. On January 5, 1992 a M1/1N flare was observed in H, H and Caii H and the temporal evolution of the electron density was determined. The chromospheric electron density rises several times from less than 3 × 1019 to 1 × 1020 m–3 during the hard X-ray peaks.  相似文献

In this paper we present and analyze new data on the cores of the H and K lines of ionized calcium in the spectrum of integrated sunlight. The intensities of the components H 2v , H3, H 2r , K 2v , K3, and K 2r in the line cores were measured in terms of the continuum intensity at 4000 Å during a solar rotation in September 1969. Other data on these components, obtained at or close to the times of solar minimum (September 1964) and solar maximum (September 1968), were also included. The intensities of these features are compared with two indices of solar activity: the Ca ii plage index and the 2800 MHZ signal. The average correlation coefficients between the intensities of the measured features and those indices were 0.69 and 0.64, respectively. Our results are consistent with those of Bumba and Riková-Topolová (1967) for a solar rotation period in 1965.The method and results should provide a detailed quantitative basis for the study of the activity cycles and rotation periods of solar-type stars.First Weather Wing, Hickman Air Force Base, HI 96824, U.S.A.  相似文献
