We present the analysis of 64 type III solar bursts that drifted from 3.5 MHz down to the range 350-50 kHz between March 1968 and February 1970. Bursts arrival times were predicted by a simple model and then compared with observations. The results show that, as the bursts drift, the fundamental often disappears below a certain frequency range while the second harmonic remains. Below about 1 MHz the second harmonic occurrence predominates. Recognizing this fact we deduce a mean velocity of 0.32c±0.02c for the exciter particles, where the uncertainty is the standard error and c the velocity of light in vacuum; the electron density model used is comparable to a solar wind model. 相似文献

Comparing the records of the radio spectrographs ARTEMIS (100–500 MHz) on the ground and URAP (1–1000 kHz) on the Ulysses spacecraft, we find that most type III bursts extend from the corona to the solar wind. Using the positions of the associated flares, and assuming an average intensity ratio between these two frequency ranges, we derive for the first time the average radiation pattern of interplanetary type III bursts. We find that at 800 kHz it is shifted east of the radial direction by 30° and has a half-width of about 80° at maximum/10; the shift and width increase towards lower frequencies. Ulysses high-latitude observations show that the cross-section perpendicular to the heliospheric equator is about the same. We interpret these properties by refraction effects in local density gradients. 相似文献

High-time resolution spectral measurements of solar radio emission close to 264 MHz are reported. Instrumental resolutions of the order of a few kHz in frequency and tenths of milliseconds in time were used to resolve the burst fine structure in the time-frequency plane. Fine structures, having narrow bandwidths and durations of some 5 to 30 ms, have been observed mostly in association with type I and type III bursts. These very short duration bursts have negative frequency drifts of about - 50 to- 60 MHz s-1. They can occur individually or in small groups where they sometimes display a quasi-periodicity of a few milliseconds. 相似文献

It is shown from measurements of type III bursts at 234 MHz, III MHz and 23 MHz during the foregoing solar cycle that the type III activity has a relative minimum in 1959 and apparently a second maximum in 1960. This is in accordance with the statement of GNEVYSHEV relating at first to the intensity of the green coronal line. He also pointed out that the second maximum is closely correlated to some terrestrial features. It can be stated from a comparison of the three observing frequencies that the lowest frequency corresponding to the highest coronal level shows the strongest enhancement of type III activity during the second part of the solar cycle. By an indirect method it can be concluded that the percentage of polarized bursts at low levels is well correlated with the WOLF number. The suggestion is discussed that type III activity is not only an attendant effect of solar activity but it is also connected more directly with terrestrial features by contribution to the solar wind. 相似文献

Detailed statistics and analysis of 264 type III bursts observed with the 625–1500 MHz spectrograph during the 23rd solar
cycle (from July 2000 to April 2003) are carried out in the present article. The main statistical results are similar to those
of microwave type III bursts presented in the literature cited, such as the correlation between type III bursts and flares,
polarization, duration, frequency drift rate (normal and reverse slopes), distribution of type III bursts and frequency bandwidth.
At the same time, the statistical results also point out that the average values of the frequency drift rates and degrees
of polarization increase with the increase in frequency and the average value of duration decreases with the increase in frequency.
Other statistical results show that the starting frequencies of the type III bursts are mainly within the range from 650 to
800 MHz, and most type III bursts have an average bandwidth of 289 MHz. The distributions imply that the electron acceleration
and the place of energy release are within a limited decimetric range. The characteristics of the narrow bandwidth possibly
involve the magnetic configuration at decimetric wavelengths, the location of electron acceleration in the magnetic field
nearto the main flare, the relevant runaway or trapped electrons, or the coherent radio emission produced by some secondary
shock waves. In addition, the number of type III bursts with positive frequency drift rates is almost equal to that with negative
frequency drift rates. This is probably explained by the hypothesis that an equal number of electron beams are accelerated
upwards and downwards within the range of 625 to 1500 MHz. The radiation mechanism of type III bursts at decimetric wavelengths
probably includes these microwave and metric mechanisms and the most likely cause of the coherent plasma radiation are the
emission processes of the electron cyclotron maser. 相似文献

An analysis has been made of type III bursts recorded during a decametric solar storm observed from July 29 to August 16, 1975 with the UTR-2 antenna (Kharkov, IRE Acad. Sci. Ukr. SSR). The bursts were recorded with a dynamic spectrograph and radiometers at 25.0, 20.0, 16.7, and 12.5 MHz. Daily observations have yielded histograms of the type III burst distribution with respect to the frequency drift rate in three subbands between 25.0 and 12.5 MHz. During the middle stage of the storm the drift rate was about twice as high as at the onset and the final stage of the storm. Abrupt changes in the mean frequency drift rate were registered some two to three days after the active region McMath 13790 had come onto the limb and also before it disappeared behind the solar disk. Sudden changes in the drift rates of the type III bursts were accompanied by sudden changes of their mean duration. The rather long burst durations observed at 25.0 MHz at the beginning and the end of the radio storm coincided with such at the twice lower frequency, i.e. 12.5 MHz, during the period when an increased drift rate was observed.Similar variations of type III burst parameters can be interpreted in the framework of the plasma mechanism of burst generation in the corona, assuming that at the middle stage of the storm the bursts observed in the 25.0–12.5 MHz range were emitted at the fundamental whereas when the emitting region was near the limb the bursts received corresponded to the second harmonic of the Langmuir oscillations in the range of 12.5 to 6.25 MHz excited at greater heights. 相似文献

Observations of the solar radio spectrum have been made with high time and frequency resolution. Spectra were recorded over six 3-MHz bands between 30 and 82 MHz. The receivers used were capable of time and frequency resolutions of 1 ms and 2 kHz, respectively. A large number of radio bursts exhibiting a variety of find spectral structure were recorded.The bursts, referred to here as S bursts, were observed throughout the 30–82 MHz frequency range but were most numerous in the 33–44 MHz band and were very rare at 80 MHz. On a dynamic spectrum the bursts appeared as narrow sloping lines with the centre frequency of each burst decreasing with time. The rate of frequency drift was about 1/3 that of type III bursts. Most bursts were observed over only a limited frequency range (< 5 MHz) but some drifted for more than 10 MHz. The durations measured at a single frequency and the instantaneous bandwidths of S bursts were small; t = 49 ± 34 ms and f = 123 ± 56 kHz for bursts observed near 40 MHz. A significant number had t 20 ms. Flux densities of S burst sources were estimated to fall in the range 1023-5 × 1021 Wm–1 Hz–1.A small proportion (1–2%) of bursts showed a fine structure in which the burst source apparently only emitted at discrete, regularly spaced frequencies causing the spectrogram to exhibit a series of bands or fringes. The fringe spacing increased with wave frequency and was f - 90 kHz for fringes near 40 MHz. The bandwidths of fringes was narrow, often less than 30 kHz and in some cases down to 10–15 kHz.New address: Astronomy Program, University of Maryland, College Park, MD, U.S.A. 相似文献

An unusual solar burst was observed simultaneously by two decameter radio telescopes UTR-2 (Kharkov, Ukraine) and URAN-2 (Poltava, Ukraine) on 3 June 2011 in the frequency range of 16?–?28 MHz. The observed radio burst had some unusual properties, which are not typical for the other types of solar radio bursts. Its frequency drift rate was positive (about 500 kHz?s?1) at frequencies higher than 22 MHz and negative (100 kHz?s?1) at lower frequencies. The full duration of this event varied from 50 s up to 80 s, depending on the frequency. The maximum radio flux of the unusual burst reached ≈103 s.f.u. and its polarization did not exceed 10 %. This burst had a fine frequency-time structure of unusual appearance. It consisted of stripes with the frequency bandwidth 300?–?400 kHz. We consider that several accompanied radio and optical events observed by SOHO and STEREO spacecraft were possibly associated with the reported radio burst. A model that may interpret the observed unusual solar radio burst is proposed. 相似文献

Type III radio bursts observed at kilometric wavelengths ( 0.35 MHz) by the OGO-5 spacecraft are compared with > 45 keV solar electron events observed near 1 AU by the IMP-5 and Explorer 35 spacecraft for the period March 1968–November 1969.Fifty-six distinct type III bursts extending to 0.35 MHz ( 50 R
equivalent height above the photosphere) were observed above the threshold of the OGO-5 detector; all but two were associated with solar flares. Twenty-six of the bursts were followed 40 min later by > 45 keV solar electron events observed at 1 AU. All of these 26 bursts were identified with flares located west of W 09 solar longitude. Of the bursts not associated with electron events only three were identified with flares west of W 09, 18 were located east of W 09 and 7 occurred during times when electron events would be obscured by high background particle fluxes.Thus almost all type III bursts from the western half of the solar disk observed by OGO-5 above a detection flux density threshold of the order of 10–13 Wm–2 Hz–1 at 0.35 MHz are followed by > 45 keV electrons at 1 AU with a maximum flux of 10 cm–2 s–1 ster–1. If particle propagation effects are taken into account it is possible to account for lack of electron events with the type III bursts from flares east of the central meridian. We conclude that streams of 10–100 keV electrons are the exciting agent for type III bursts and that these same electrons escape into the interplanetary medium where they are observed at 1 AU. The total number of > 45 keV electrons emitted in association with a strong kilometer wavelength type III burst is estimated to be 5 × 1032. 相似文献

The comparison of solar radio type III bursts measured at 169 MHz with K corona observations leads to the conclusion that about 75% of the active regions over which type III bursts occur are associated with low density coronal structures. The comparison with X-ray maps of the solar disk shows that all these regions are located in low intensity regions.It is concluded that the idea generally accepted that the type III bursts are associated with dense coronal structures and travel in these structures is not at all proven for a large number of cases. 相似文献

The occurrence rate of type III solar bursts in the frequency range 4.9 MHz to 30 kHz is analyzed as a function of burst intensity and burst arrival direction. We find that (a) the occurrence rate of bursts falls off with increasing flux, S, according to the power law S
–1.5, and (b) the distribution of burst arrival directions at each frequency shows a significantly larger number of bursts observed west of the Earth-Sun line than east of it. This western excess in occurrence rate appears to be correlated with the direction of the average interplanetary magnetic field, and is interpreted as beaming of the observed burst radiation along the magnetic field direction.Presently at the University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland. 相似文献

Flux density spectra have been determined for ninety-one simple type III solar bursts observed by the Goddard Space Flight Center radio astronomy experiment on the IMP-6 spacecraft during 1971 and 1972. Spectral peaks were found to occur at frequencies ranging from 44 kHz up to 2500 kHz. Half of the bursts peaked between 250 kHz and 900 kHz, corresponding to emission at solar distances of about 0.3 to 0.1 AU. Maximum burst flux density sometimes exceeds 10–14 W m–2 Hz–1. The primary factor controlling the spectral peak frequency of these bursts appears to be variation in intrinsic power radiated by the source as the exciter moves outward from the Sun, rather than radio propagation effects between the source and IMP-6. Thus, a burst spectrum strongly reflects the evolution of the properties of the exciting electron beam, and according to current theory, beam deceleration could help account for the observations. 相似文献

The passage of McMath plage region 8818 over the visible solar disk resulted in extensive meter-wavelength activity of spectral types I, II, III and IV. The activity at 74 MHz and its polarization have been observed with a narrow-band (10 kHz) timesharing radio polarimeter. Newly adopted data recording and processing techniques have enabled time-histories of the polarization characteristics of the solar emission to be obtained with a time resolution of 1/4 second. The polarization patterns for all the major activity in the May 18–26 period are described. They exhibit considerable variety in the degree and ellipticity of the polarization observed during both short-lived bursts and long-enduring periods of activity. Both simple and complex patterns were seen when changes in the sense of polarization of the solar emission occurred. Methods used to determine the polarization characteristics of the solar emission in the presence of galactic emission and to resolve the complexities of the solar emission itself are illustrated. 相似文献

A simulation of normal type III radio bursts has been made in a whole frequency range of about 200 MHz to 30 kHz by the usage of the semi-analytical method as developed in previous papers for the plasma waves excited by a cloud of fast electrons. Three-dimensional plasma waves are computed, though the velocities of fast electrons are assumed to be one-dimensional. Many basic problems about type III radio bursts and associated solar electrons have been solved showing the following striking or unexpected results.Induced scattering of plasma waves, by thermal ions, into the plasma waves with opposite wave vectors is efficient even for a solar electron cloud of rather low number density. Therefore, the second harmonic radio emission as attributed to the coalescence of two plasma waves predominates in a whole range from meter waves to km waves. Fundamental radio emission as ascribed to the scattering of plasma waves by thermal ions is negligibly small almost in the whole range. On the other hand, third harmonic radio emission can be strong enough to be observed in a limited frequency range.If, however, the time integral of electron flux is, for example, 2 × 1013 cm–2 (>5 keV) or more at the height of 4.3 × 1010 cm (
p = 40 MHz) above the photosphere, the fundamental may be comparable with or greater than the second harmonic, but an effective area of cross-section of the electron beam is required to be very small, 1017 cm2 or less, and hence much larger sizes of the observed radio sources must be attributed to the scattering alone of radio waves.The radio flux density expected at the Earth for the second harmonic can increase with decreasing frequencies giving high flux densities at low frequencies as observed, if x-dependence of the cross-sectional area of the electron beam is x
1.5 or less instead of x
2, at least at x 2 × 1012 cm.The second harmonic radio waves are emitted predominantly into forward direction at first, but the direction of emission may reverse a few times in a course of a single burst showing a greater backward emission at the low frequencies.In a standard low frequency model, a total number of solar electrons above 18 keV arriving at the Earth orbit reduces to 12% of the initial value due mainly to the collisional decay of plasma waves before the waves are reabsorbed by the beam electrons arriving later. However, no deceleration of the apparent velocity of exciter appears. A change in the apparent velocity, if any, results from a change in growth rate of the plasma waves instead of the deceleration of individual electrons.Near the Earth, the peak of second harmonic radio flux as emitted from the local plasma appears well after the passage of a whole solar electron cloud through this layer. This is ascribed to the secondary and the third plasma waves as caused in non-resonant regions by the induced scattering of primary plasma waves in a resonant region. 相似文献

We present statistics relating shock-associated (SA) kilometric bursts (Cane et al., 1981) to solar metric type II bursts. An SA burst is defined here to be any 1980 kHz emission temporally associated with a reported metric type II burst and not temporally associated with a reported metric type III burst. In this way we extend to lower flux densities and shorter durations the original SA concept of Cane et al. About one quarter of 316 metric type II bursts were not accompanied by any 1980 kHz emission, another quarter were accompanied by emission attributable to preceding or simultaneous type III bursts, and nearly half were associated with SA bursts. We have compared the time profiles of 32 SA bursts with Culgoora Observatory dynamic spectral records of metric type II bursts and find that the SA emission is associated with the most intense and structured part of the metric type II burst. On the other hand, the generally poor correlation found between SA burst profiles and Sagamore Hill Observatory 606 and 2695 MHz flux density profiles suggests that most SA emission is not due to energetic electrons escaping from the microwave emission region. These results support the interpretation that SA bursts are the long wavelength extension of type II burst herringbone emission, which is presumed due to the shock acceleration of electrons.Also: Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Maryland, College Park, MD 20742, U.S.A. 相似文献

New observations of the out-of-the ecliptic trajectories of type III solar radio bursts have been obtained from simultaneous direction finding measurements on two independent satellite experiments, IMP-6 with spin plane in the ecliptic, and RAE-2 with spin plane normal to the ecliptic. Burst exciter trajectories were observed which originated at the active region and then crossed the ecliptic plane at about 0.8 AU. We find a considerable large scale north-south component of the interplanetary magnetic field followed by the exciters. The apparent north-south and east-west angular source sizes observed by the two spacecraft are approximately equal, and range from 25° at 600 kHz to 110° at 80 kHz. 相似文献

Over 500 days of low-frequency (<1 MHz) radio observations from the IMP-6 spacecraft have been accumulated to produce a two-dimensional map (frequency vs elongation) of solar type III burst occurrences. This map indicates that most solar bursts in this frequency range are observed at the second harmonic of the plasma frequency rather than the fundamental. The map also shows that the solar wind electron density varies as R ?γ , where γ can be somewhat less than 2 to perhaps 3 or higher. 相似文献

The collisional equations for the solar wind assuming steady, spherically symmetric flow and including thermal conduction and an anisotropic proton temperature are analysed in the absence of a heat source function. The equations are cast in a form that involves one dimensionless parameter, effectively equal to the inverse Péclet number for protons, and the small quantity , the square-root of the electron-proton mass ratio. Analytic forms for the proton temperature anisotropy and other flow variables are derived by applying the limit 0, and using asymptotic techniques. It is found that the model based purely on Coulomb collisions predicts values for the proton temperature anisotropy in the vicinity of the Earth that are much smaller than those observed, and that increasing the coronal base temperature serves to decrease the predicted anisotropy still further.The National Center for Atmospheric Research is sponsored by the National Science Foundation. 相似文献

A model of type III solar radio bursts is developed that incorporates large-angle scattering and reabsorption of fundamental emission amid ambient density fluctuations in the corona and solar wind. Comparison with observations shows that this model accounts semiquantitatively for anomalous harmonic ratios, the exponential decay constant of bursts, burst rise times, and the directivity of fundamental emission. It is concluded that the long emission tail on interplanetary type III bursts is mostly fundamental emission, while much of the anomalous time delay of fundamental relative to harmonic emission from a given location must be ascribed to other causes. 相似文献

An analysis of solar radio bursts with temporal fine structure (TFS) at 5730 MHz in relation to the magnetic configuration
of the corresponding active regions (AR) is presented. We found that the occurrence of TFS bursts increases with increasing
complexity of the AR's magnetic configuration. The degree of polarization of TFS bursts varies over a wide range. Most of
these fast bursts with a high degree of polarization were observed in active regions with a simple magnetic configuration β.
Most of the unpolarized fast bursts were observed in active regions with the most complicated configuration βγδ. Because bursts
that are polarized in different modes have different displacements of position with respect to that of associated microwave
bursts, we conclude that there are at least two types of TFS bursts at 5730 MHz. We think that fast bursts that are polarized
in the ordinary mode are due to microwave type III bursts. 相似文献
