We analysed multifrequency 2-dimensional maps of the solar corona obtained with the Nançay radioheliograph during two solar rotations in 1986. We discuss the emission of the quiet Sun, coronal holes and local sources and its association with chromospheric and coronal features as well as with large-scale magnetic fields. The brightness temperature of the quiet Sun was 5 to 5.5 × 105 K at 164 MHz and 4.5 to 5 × 105 K at 408 MHz. A coronal hole, also detected in the 10830 Å He i line, had a brightness temperature of 4.5 × 105 at 164 and 2.5 × 105 at 408 MHz. We give statistics of source brightness temperatures (on the average 8% above the background at 164 MHz and 14% at 408 MHz), as well as distributions in longitude and latitude. Although we found no significant center-to-limb effect in the brightness temperature, the sources were not visible far from the central meridian (apparently a refraction effect). The brightest sources at 164 MHz were near, but not directly above active regions and had characteristics of faint type I continua. At 408 MHz some sources were observed directly above active regions and one was unambiguously a type I continuum. The majority of the fainter sources showed no association with chromospheric features seen on H synoptic charts, including filaments. Most of them were detected at one frequency only. Sources identified at three frequencies (164, 327, and 408 MHz) were located in regions of enhanced large-scale magnetic field, some of them at the same location as decayed active regions visible one rotation before on synoptic H charts. Multifrequency sources are associated with maxima of the green line corona. The comparison with K-corona synoptic charts shows a striking association of the radio sources with dense coronal regions, associated with the coronal neutral sheet. Furthermore, we detected an enhanced brightness region which surrounds the local sources and is stable over at least one solar rotation. We call this feature a coronal plateau and we identify it with the radio counterpart of the coronal neutral sheet. 相似文献

Metric and decimetric type III bursts and microwave spike emissions with negative and positive frequency drift rates which were observed with radio spectrometers at Yunnan and Beijing Observatories are presented. The frequencies and heights at which the bidirectional electron beams originated are estimated. Three events reveal a separatrix frequency (at 250, 1300, and 2900 MHz) between normal- and reverse-drifting radio bursts, indicating a compact acceleration source where electron beams are injected in both upward and downward directions. These cases may indicate that the changeover frequencies of bidirectional electron beams are within a large band from 250 to 2900 MHz and the frequency bands of separatrices are in very small (4 to 100 MHz) and different bands. These type III bursts appear to be a plasma emission phenomenon from a beam of electrons which seem to have widely separated acceleration regions from the high to the low corona. These cases suggest that current sheets that separate open and closed magnetic fluxes in the low corona, and oppositely directed open field lines in the high corona are possible sites for bidirectional electron acceleration. The regions of magnetic topology from closed to open magnetic field structures should be very large (from about 20000 to 107000 km above the photosphere). 相似文献

We review high-spatial-resolution observations of the Sun which reflect on the role of mode coupling in the solar corona, and present a number of new observations. We show that typically polarization inversion is seen at 5 GHz in active region sources near the solar limb, but not at 1.5 GHz. Although this is apparently in contradiction to the simplest form of mode coupling theory, in fact it remains consistent with current models for the active region emission. Microwave bursts show no strong evidence for polarization inversion. We discuss bipolar noise storm continuum emission in some detail, utilizing recent VLA observations at 327 MHz. We show that bipolar sources are common at 327 MHz. Further, the trailing component of the bipole is frequently stronger than the leading component, in apparent conflict with the leading-spot hypothesis. The observations indicate that at 327 MHz mode coupling is apparently strong at all mode-coupling layers in the solar corona. The 327 MHz observations require a much weaker magnetic field strength in the solar corona to explain this result than did earlier lower-frequency observations: maximum fields are 0.2 G. This is a much weaker field than is consistent with current coronal models.On leave from the Indian Institute for Astrophysics, Bangalore, India. 相似文献

Meter-wavelength observations are presented for the solar radio storm of August 17–22, 1968. The data comprise dynamic spectra and high-resolution brightness distributions from the 80 MHz radioheliograph.It is found that the storm consisted essentially of type III bursts at the lower frequencies and type I at the higher frequencies; the transition, usually near 60 MHz, was fairly sharp. The type I source was located over an active region associated with a large sunspot group. The type III position was displaced about 0.5 R
transversely from the type I, in a region of low magnetic field.The evident close association between the two types of emission can best be explained by disturbances originating in the type I region, propagating outwards through a region of weak magnetic field, and triggering an electron acceleration process, probably at the cusp of a helmet structure. The observed frequency and spatial relationship between the type I and type III components in events of this kind follow as a natural consequence of this model.A comparison of these results with the hectometer-wavelength satellite observations of the 1968 August event makes possible a qualitative estimate of the outward path of the type III exciters through the corona, and it is apparent that below the solar wind region of the corona this path departs considerably from the radial direction. 相似文献

VLA,SOHO and TRACE Observations of Nonthermal Burst Activity,Coronal Mass Ejections,and EUV Transient Events 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Very Large Array (VLA) observations of the Sun at 91 and 400 cm wavelength have been used to investigate the radio signatures of EUV heating events and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) detected by SOHO and TRACE. Our 91 cm observations show the onset of Type I noise storm emission about an hour after an EUV ejection event was detected by EIT and TRACE. The EUV event also coincided with the estimated start time of a CME detected by the LASCO C2 coronagraph, suggesting an association between the production of nonthermal particles and evolving plasma-magnetic field structures at different heights in the corona. On another day, our VLA 400 cm observations reveal weak, impulsive microbursts that occurred sporadically throughout the middle corona. These low-brightness-temperature (T
b=0.7–22×106 K) events may be weak Type III bursts produced by beams of nonthermal electrons which excite plasma emission at a height where the local plasma frequency or its first harmonic equals the observing frequency of 74 MHz. For one microburst, the emission was contained in two sources separated by 0.7 R
0, indicating that the electron beams had access to widely-divergent magnetic field lines originating at a common site of particle acceleration. Another 400 cm microburst occurred in an arc-like source lying at the edge of EUV loops that appeared to open outward into the corona, possibly signaling the start of a CME. In most instances the 400 cm microbursts were not accompanied by detectable EUV activity, suggesting that particles that produce the microbursts were independently accelerated in the middle corona, perhaps as the result of some quasi-continuous, large-scale process of energy release. 相似文献

We present observations of the corona at 169 MHz with the Nançay Radioheliograph during the summer of 1984. We compare synoptic maps of the metric radio emission on the solar disk with synoptic charts of the K-corona as well as of the green and the red lines. Local sources of radio emission are not located near regions of enhanced green or red line emission which, in turn, are in general above chromospheric faculae. Thus the radio emissions located in the surroundings of faculae are apparently related to different loop systems, with lower density. The comparison of the radio data with the K-corona showed one radio source associated with enhanced emission both at 1.3 and at 1.7 R
, apparently a streamer. Other radio sources did not show any clear associations, but were nevertheless located within the coronal plasma sheet, delineated by the large-scale K-corona emission. Moreover the large-scale structure of the corona at 169 MHz was quite similar to the coronal plasma sheet observed at 1.3 R
above the limb. The extent of the radio emission in latitude is very similar to that of the K-corona, while the coronal line emission is more concentrated near the solar equator. 相似文献

The UTR-2 antenna has been used to measure angular sizes of sources of narrow-band short-lived solar stria-bursts at frequencies 24–26 MHz. The majority of these sources have apparent diameters between 20 and 40. According to this parameter they do not differ noticeably from that of type III bursts at the same frequency. The short duration of the stria-bursts prevents explanation of the large diameter by scattering in the solar corona. 相似文献

The 80 MHz emission from a moving type IV source has been observed as the source moved from 2 to 51/4 R
from the centre of the Sun. The emission came from a plasma cloud ejected in association with an extensive solar prominence. The cloud appeared to move with a speed ( 270 km/sec) approximating the local Alfvén velocity in the corona. At 2 R
the emission was from a single unpolarized source, while at 5 R
it was from two sources strongly circularly polarized in opposite senses. The physical conditions inside and outside the source and the emission mechanisms are discussed. 相似文献

Calculations of the gyro-synchrotron emission are made for conditions which might be expected in moving type IV sources in the solar corona. Two simple models for an evolving source are treated: a uniform cube and an inhomogeneous sphere. The results suggest that most moving sources have the following features: (1) A rather strong magnetic field, 10 G, is carried out within the source. This is required to achieve the high degree of circular polarization often observed. (2) Synchrotron self-absorption causes the source to be optically thick at frequencies less than about 100 MHz, thus restricting the bandwidth of the radiation. The self-absorption decreases as the source moves outward and expands. The turnover frequency, which separates the optically thick and thin spectral regimes, moves rapidly to lower frequencies, accompanied by a change from low to high circular polarization. In the case of an inhomogeneous source, the source appears to be larger at the lower frequencies. (3) Razin-Tsytovich suppression cannot be an important factor in determining the characteristics of most sources.Exchange visitor from the Department of Astro-Geophysics, University of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado, U.S.A. 相似文献

The frequency bands of noise storms and type I-bursts as well as of type IVdm-bursts are shown to be in accordance with the consequences of a recently proposed mechanism (Mollwo, 1970). An explanation results of the observed spectral minimum near 600 MHz and interpretations are supposed of some features of type III- and of type IVmA-bursts. The magnetic field strength over active regions in two corona levels is deduced, too. The discussion leads to a conception of the corona parameters in the level of type IV-bursts which suggests an origin of these bursts by absolute instability of space charge waves. 相似文献

The 120 limb surges which have been observed by means of Wrocaw Observatory coronagraph from September 1966 to November 1977 are investigated. The evolution of surges was compared with the radio data during the surges. A correlation between radio bursts and the surges was found, particularly with chains of type I radio bursts, which is the first reliable correlation found of these bursts with non-radio events. The type I correlation only applied for surges without accompanying flare, of which 43% are correlated with this type of radio emission. In 23 of 30 associated events the start of a surge coincided within 5 minutes with the start or an enhancement of the type I storm. If flares were present, the association was not significant.We also compared the maximum height reached by a surge with the frequencies of the radio bursts emitted at the same time and the maximum velocity of the rising surge with the frequency drift of type I chains. No such a correlation was however found.We discuss the possibility that surges are the result of a sudden energy input into the chromosphere related to the type I source in the corona. 相似文献

We have observed regions of three galaxy clusters at z～[0.06÷0.09] (Abell85, Abell1205, Abell2440) with the Nançay radiotelescope (NRT) to search for 21 cm emission and to fully characterize the FPGA based BAORadio digital backend. We have tested the new BAORadio data acquisition system by observing sources in parallel with the NRT standard correlator (ACRT) back-end over several months. BAORadio enables wide band instantaneous observation of the [1250,1500] MHz frequency range, as well as the use of powerful RFI mitigation methods thanks to its fine time sampling. A number of questions related to instrument stability, data processing and calibration are discussed. We have obtained the radiometer curves over the integration time range [0.01,10 000] seconds and we show that sensitivities of few mJy over most of the wide frequency band can be reached with the NRT. It is clearly shown that in blind line search, which is the context of H I intensity mapping for Baryon Acoustic Oscillations, the new acquisition system and processing pipeline outperforms the standard one. We report a positive detection of 21 cm emission at 3σ-level from galaxies in the outer region of Abell85 at ?1352 MHz (14400 km/s) corresponding to a line strength of ?0.8 Jy km/s. We also observe an excess power around ?1318 MHz (21600 km/s), although at lower statistical significance, compatible with emission from Abell1205 galaxies. Detected radio line emissions have been cross matched with optical catalogs and we have derived hydrogen mass estimates. 相似文献

Type III solar radio bursts observed from 3.0 to 0.45 MHz with the ATS-II satellite over the period April–October 1967 have been analyzed to derive two alternative models of active region streamers in the outer solar corona. Assuming that the bursts correspond to radiation near the electron plasma frequency, pressure equilibrium arguments lead to streamer Model I in which the streamer electron temperature derived from collision damping time falls off much more rapidly than in the average corona and the electron density is as much as 25 times the average coronal density at heights of 10 to 50 solar radii (R
). In Model II the streamer electron temperature is assumed to equal the average coronal temperature, giving a density enhancement which decreases from a factor of 10 close to the Sun to less than a factor of two at large distances (> 1/4 AU). When the burst frequency drift is interpreted as resulting from the outward motion of a disturbance that stimulates the radio emission, Model I gives a constant velocity of about 0.35c for the exciting disturbance as it moves to large distances, while with Model II, there is a decrease in the velocity to less than 0.2c beyond 10 R

Digital, decimetric (200–2500 MHz) Brazilian Solar Spectroscope (BSS) with high time (10–1000 ms) and frequency (1–10 MHz) resolution is in regular operation since April, 1998, at National Space Research Institute (INPE) at São José dos Campos, Brazil. BSS operates in conjunction with a 9-m diameter polar mounted antenna. It allows to select suitable observing frequency range, frequency and time resolutions and data can be digitized up to 100 channels. BSS has capabilities of quasi-real time display of the ongoing dynamic spectra of the solar activity that enables the observer to modify observational parameters so as to suit a specific type of activity such as spikes and improve the quality of data acquisition and storage. Minimum detectable flux density of the spectroscope, for different combinations of the observational parameters, is 3 s.f.u. Observations are carried out routinely from 11 UT to 19 UT. Necessary software for data acquisition and reductions has been developed in IDL 5.3 environment. Data are available in FITS and ASCII formats. Absolute timing accuracy of the station is less than 3 ms. Here, we present examples of the bursts which have been recorded by BSS and available display facilities. 相似文献

Radioheliograph observations at 80 MHz are reported of a flare-associated event in which two type II bursts occur in four different sources. The projected centres of the sources lie along an arc subtending an angle of about 150° at the optical flare centre. If the arc represents the projection on the Sun's disk of a shock front passing through the 80 MHz plasma level, the source configuration suggests that the shock wave has originated from the optical flare region and propagated into the corona within a limited cone. On the opposite side of the flare centre, outside the shock cone, there was a stable bipolar source. Strong magnetic fields in this source may have acted as a magnetic wall to the shock wave and inhibited its propagation in this direction. 相似文献

Observations of a solar flare at 617 MHz with the Giant Meter-wave Radio Telescope (GMRT) are used to study the morphology
of flare radio emission at decimetric wavelengths. There has been very little imaging in the 500 – 1000 MHz frequency range,
but it is of great interest, since it corresponds to densities at which energy is believed to be released in solar flares.
This event has a very distinctive morphology at 617 MHz: the radio emission is clearly resolved by the 30″ beam into arc-shaped
sources seeming to lie at the tops of long loops, anchored at one end in the active region in which the flare occurs, with
the other end lying some 200 000 km away in a region of quiet solar atmosphere. Microwave images show fairly conventional
behaviour for the flare in the active region: it consists of two compact sources overlying regions of opposite magnetic polarity
in the photosphere. The decimetric emission is confined to the period leading up to the impulsive phase of the flare, and
does not extend over a wide frequency range. This fact suggests a flare mechanism in which the magnetic field at considerable
height in the corona is destabilized a few minutes prior to the main energy release lower in the corona. The radio morphology
also suggests that the radiating electrons are trapped near the tops of magnetic loops, and therefore may have pitch angles
near 90˚. 相似文献

A solar type I noise storm was observed on 30 July, 1992 with the radio spectrometer Phoenix of ETH Zürich, the Very Large Array (VLA) and the soft X-ray (SXR) telescope on board theYohkoh satellite. The spectrogram was used to identify the type I noise storm. In the VLA images at 333 MHz a fully left circular polarized (100% LCP) continuum source and several highly polarized (70% to 100% LCP) burst sources have been located. The continuum and the bursts are spatially separated by about 100 and apparently lie on different loops as outlined by the SXR. Continuum and bursts are separated in the perpendicular direction to the magnetic field configuration. Between the periods of strong burst activities, burst-like emissions are also superimposed on the continuum source. There is no obvious correlation between the flux density of the continuum and the bursts. The burst sources have no systematic motion, whereas the the continuum source shows a small drift of 0.2 min–1 along the X-ray loop in the long-time evolution. The VLA maps at higher frequency (1446 MHz) show no source corresponding to the type I event. The soft X-ray emission measure and temperature were calculated. The type I continuum source is located (in projection) in a region with enhanced SXR emission, a loop having a mean density of n
e = (1.5 ± 0.4) × 109 cm–3 and a temperature ofT = (2.1 ± 0.1) × 106 K. The centroid positions of the left and right circularly polarized components of the burst sources are separated by 15–50 and seem to be on different loops. These observations contradict the predictions of existing type I theories.Presented at the CESRA-Workshop on Coronal Magnetic Energy Release at Caputh near Potsdam in May 1994. 相似文献

A major radio burst at decametric frequencies at 1638 UT on June 9, 1959 is apparently a Type-IV continuum burst of the kind that drifts from high to low frequencies. We present observations of flux variations and East-West positions of the emission at both 18 and 38 MHz. The burst moves outward at a speed of about 4700 km·sec?1 at each frequency to a height of about 3 R ⊙ from the sun's center and then returns to the sun. This behavior is not simultaneous at 18 MHz and 38 MHz; the outward moving phase of 18 MHz emission occurs during the return phase of 38 MHz. We suspect that a solitary Alfvén wave or shock traverses the outer corona at the time of this burst. Relativistic electrons created low in the solar atmosphere travel freely along radial lines of force up to the coronal-streamer heights of the Type-IV burst. Upon encountering the shock, the electrons emit locally intense synchrotron emission, and pass through the shock on out into interplanetary space. This model appears to be consistent with other shock front phenomena in interplanetary space and the corona. Finally, the Razin effect (Boischot and Clavelier, 1967) suggests that low-frequency cut-offs in Type-IV bursts ought to be quite constant in frequency, and not higher than between 0.4 to 4 MHz. 相似文献

A multi-frequency capability has been added to the north-south array of the Nançay Radioheliograph, providing observations at up to five frequencies between 150 and 450 MHz with time resolution 0.1 s. The projected position, brightness and dimension of sources in the solar corona can thus be studied as a function of height. Two-dimensional information is obtained at 164 MHz using the east-west and north-south arrays. In addition, the quiescent corona can be mapped in two dimensions at all observed frequencies by earth rotation synthesis. The paper describes the new aspects of the antennae, the receiver frontend, the data acquisition and the calibration procedure. The performances of the instrument are illustrated with multi-frequency observations of solar fast-drift bursts, continuum emission and maps of the quiet corona.Meudon: Y. Avignon, J. Bonmartin, A.

Detailed comparisons of Culgoora 160 MHz radioheliograms of solar noise storms and Skylab EUV spectroheliograms of coronal loop structures are presented. It is concluded that: (1) there is a close association between changes in large-scale magnetic fields in the corona and the onset or cessation of noise storms; (2) these coronal changes result from the emergence of new magnetic flux at the photospheric level; (3) although new magnetic flux at the photospheric level is often accompanied by an increase in flare activity the latter is not directly responsible for noise storm activity; rather the new magnetic flux diffuses slowly outwards through the corona at rates 1–2 km s–1 and produces noise storms at 160 MHz 1–2 days later; (4) the coronal density above or in large-scale EUV loop systems is sufficiently dense to account for noise storm emission at the fundamental plasma frequency; (5) the scatter in noise storm positions can be accounted for by the appearance and disappearance of individual loops in a system. 相似文献
