We have calculated prominence thread models for different values of the center temperature and pressure. We have simultaneously solved the radiative transfer, statistical equilibrium and ionization equilibrium equations assuming a three-level atom plus continuum. We have also computed the energy balance equation including the hydrogen radiative losses from our calculations, plus other radiative losses and heat conduction. Some models have been calculated assuming possible variations in thermal conductivity and heating terms. We computed the lines and continua emitted by a number of threads, in order to compare with the observations and evaluate how the different values of the parameters affect the profiles and absolute intensities of L, L, H, and Ly continuum.Member of the Carrera del Investigador, CONICET, Argentina.c.c.67 Suc. 28 Buenos Aires 1428, Argentina. 相似文献

We compare observations of an eruptive and a quiescent prominence in order to better understand the energetic processes in an eruptive prominence. Observations of an eruptive prominence were obtained in H, several UV emission lines (1215–1640 Å), and coronal white light at approximately 19:00 UT on September 20, 1980. The data we present shows the development of the eruption in the H and UV emission lines and is compared with the intensities from similar observations of a quiescent prominence. While the event is coincident with some coronal changes, above 1.2 and up to 1.5 solar radii, it does not result in a true coronal mass ejection event.The comparison between the eruptive and quiescent prominences reveals several differences which suggest that the activation consists not only of a mechanical movement of material, but also changes in the temperature of the prominence plasma. Some prominence material that does not seem to participate in the large scale prominence motion is heated during the eruptive event. Most of this material is heated to transition zone temperatures with almost no cool core (i.e., no or very little H emission). The behavior indicates that there are structures that are first cool and then heat up to transition zone temperatures (apparently remaining stable for some time at these temperatures). Since this is an unstable temperature region for prominence type structures the energy transport that allows this is not understood and presents an interesting theoretical problem.Member of the Carrera del Investigador, CONICET, Argentina, presently at The University of Alabama in Huntsville. 相似文献

This article describes an update of the physical models that we use to reconstruct the FUV and EUV irradiance spectra and the radiance spectra of the features that at any given point in time may cover the solar disk depending on the state of solar activity. The present update introduces important modifications to the chromosphere–corona transition region of all models. Also, the update introduces improved and extended atomic data. By these changes, the agreement of the computed and observed spectra is largely improved in many EUV lines important for the modeling of the Earth’s upper atmosphere. This article describes the improvements and shows detailed comparisons with EUV/FUV radiance and irradiance measurements. The solar spectral irradiance from these models at wavelengths longer than ≈?200 nm is discussed in a separate article. 相似文献

The dynamic flare of 6 November, 1980 (max 15:26 UT) developed a rich system of growing loops which could be followed in H for 1.5 hr. Throughout the flare, these loops, near the limb, were seen in emission against the disk. Theoretical computations of deviations from LTE populations for a hydrogen atom reveal that this requires electron densities in the loops close to, or in excess of 1012 cm -3. From measured widths of higher Balmer lines the density at the tops of the loops was found to be 4 x 1012 cm -3 if no non-thermal motions were present, or 5 × 1011 cm -3 for a turbulent velocity of ~ 12 km s -1.It is now general knowledge that flare loops are initially observed in X-rays and become visible in H only after cooling. For such a high density, a loop would cool through radiation from 107 to 104 K within a few minutes so that the dense H loops should have heights very close to the heights of the X-ray loops. This, however, contradicts the observations obtained by the HXIS and FCS instruments on board SMM which show the X-ray loops at much higher altitudes than the loops in H. Therefore, we suggest that the density must have been significantly lower when the loops were formed and that the flare loops were apparently both shrinking and increasing in density while cooling.NAS/NRC Research Associate, on leave from CNIE, Argentina.Operated by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc., under contract with the National Science Foundation.

Intensities and profiles of the H, H, H, K, and D3 lines are measured in a solar prominence. From the profiles of these lines we estimate T = 6400 K and
t = 5.7 km s–1. We construct a simple isothermal model which explains the H intensity and profile for an assumed total particle density n
T = 3 × 1011 cm–3, and a filling factor, = 1/6.From this model we find that the source function in the H line is nearly constant through the prominence. We estimate from the model that the radiative energy loss at the center of the prominence is of the order of 107 erg s–1 g–1. 相似文献

The SORCE Science Data System produces total solar irradiance (TSI) and spectral solar irradiance (SSI) data products on a
daily basis, which are formulated using measurements from the four primary instruments onboard the SORCE spacecraft. The Science
Data System utilizes raw spacecraft and instrument telemetry, calibration data, and other ancillary information to produce
and distribute a variety of data products that have been corrected for all known instrumental and operational effects. SORCE
benefits from a highly optimized object-oriented data processing system in which all data are stored in a commercial relational
database system, and the software itself determines the versions of data products at run-time. This unique capability facilitates
optimized data storage and CPU utilization during reprocessing activities by requiring only new data versions to be generated
and stored. This paper provides an overview of the SORCE data processing system, details its design, implementation, and operation,
and provides details on how to access SORCE science data products. 相似文献

To calculate the Balmer, Paschen, and Brackett line intensities, we solved the statistical equilibrium equations for a twenty level plus continuum atom of hydrogen.From the temperature, ionization, and the first three level populations of the prominence models deduced in a previous work we have calculated the populations of the twenty bound levels and the integrated intensities corresponding to the series mentioned above. The method was also applied to the Heasley and Mihalas theoretical models.Since the Lyman series are optically thick, we have worked out two different options: (a) assume radiative balance in these lines and (b) correct the radiative rates by multiplying them with an integro-exponential function EI2 which depends on the line optical depth at the thread center. The first option is shown to be the more consistent.The integrated line intensities from the Balmer series have been compared with the observations and a clear difference was noted between quiescent and active prominences in the sense that the active prominence case can not be well fitted with the available models.To evaluate the influence of the pressure, the temperature, the thermal conduction coefficient and the turbulence, velocity on the spectrum we have compared the results from different models.From this study we conclude that only the lines arising from the lower levels up to 8–10 can give us information about the physical parameters that characterized the solar prominences since the intensities from the higher members of the series depend only on atomic properties because of the small departures from LTE of the upper levels involved.Member of the Carrera del Investigador, CONICET, Argentina. 相似文献

We show detailed observations in X-rays, UV lines, and H of an extended arch, about 300000 km long, which developed as a consequence of a compact subflare. This subflare occurred in an included magnetic polarity of relatively low magnetic field strength (compared to that of the sunspots). The apparition of this big arch was preceded by that of a smaller arch, about 30000 km long, which masked the polarity inversion line filament in the early phase of the subflare. The big arch which developed later, around the time of the main X-ray and UV spike of the subflare, connected the included polarity and the main leading sunspot of the region, and became fully developed in a few minutes. The fact that both arches were simultaneously observed in all spectral domains as well as their fine structure in H can only be explained by considering the arch as composed of several unresolved portions of material having widely different temperatures. The H observations can be interpreted as showing the appearance of this cool material as a result of condensation, but a more appealing interpretation is that there was almost simultaneous ejection of superhot (107 K), hot (106 K), mild (105 K), and cool (104 K) material from the subflare site along previously existing magnetic tubes of much lower density. The termination of the subflare was marked by a rather hard X-ray and UV spike which appeared to originate in a different structure than that of the main spike. The material in the arch gradually cooled and drained down after the end of the subflare.Member of Carrera del Investigador, CONICET, Argentina. 相似文献

This paper presents and interprets observations obtained by the Spectral Irradiance Monitor (SIM) on the Solar Radiation and
Climate Experiment (SORCE) over a time period of several solar rotations during the declining phase of solar cycle 23. The
time series of visible and infrared (IR) bands clearly show significant wavelength dependence of these variations. At some
wavelengths the SIM measurements are qualitatively similar to the Mg II core-to-wing ratio, but in the visible and IR they show character similar to the Total Solar Irradiance (TSI) variations.
Despite this overall similarity, different amplitudes, phases, and temporal features are observed at various wavelengths.
The TSI can be explained as a complex sum of the various wavelength components. The SIM observations are interpreted with
the aid of solar images that exhibit a mixture of solar activity features. Qualitative analysis shows how the sunspots, faculae,
plage, and active network provide distinct contributions to the spectral irradiance at different wavelengths, and ultimately,
how these features combine to produce the observed TSI variations. Most of the observed variability appears to be qualitatively
explained by solar surface features related directly to the magnetic activity. 相似文献
