Spicules and downflows in the solar chromosphere

چکیده
High-speed downflows have been observed in the solar transition region (TR) and lower corona for many decades. Despite their abundance, it has hard to find signatures of such chromosphere. In this work, we target an enhanced network that shows ample occurrences rapid spicular \halpha\ spectral line could potentially be linked high-speed TR downflowing counterparts. We used $k$-means algorithm classify profiles on-disk spicules \halpha{} \cak{} data from Swedish 1-m Solar Telescope (SST) employed automated detection method based on advanced morphological image processing operations detect features, conjunction with blue-shifted red-shifted excursions (RBEs RREs). report existence a new category RREs (termed as RRE) first time that, contrary earlier interpretation, are associated chromospheric field-aligned moving towards strong magnetic field regions. Statistical analysis performed nearly 20,000 RBEs 15,000 (including counterparts), detected our 97~min long dataset, very similar except oppositely directed plane-of-sky motion. Furthermore, also RBEs, can represented by wide range varying Doppler offsets, core widths, both along perpendicular spicule axis, causes them multiple substructures evolve together. speculate these plasma well counterparts commonly downflows.

An eclipse experiment to study the solar chromosphere and spicules
An experiment is proposed to measure a critical part of the chromospheric flash spectrum during the eclipse which will occur November 13, 2012. The idea is to obtain rapid (30 Hz), high signal-to-noise spectrographic data at at least one chromospheric line, the calcium H line being the most desirable, at a spectral resolution of 15,000 or higher. A small telescope with a small exit pupil can be...
متن کاملA Tale Of Two Spicules: The Impact of Spicules on the Magnetic Chromosphere
We use high-resolution observations of the Sun in Ca II H (3968Å) from the Solar Optical Telescope on Hinode to show that there are at least two types of spicules that dominate the structure of the magnetic solar chromosphere. Both types are tied to the relentless magnetoconvective driving in the photosphere, but have very different dynamic properties. “Type-I” spicules are driven by shock wave...
متن کاملModeling the Solar Chromosphere
Spectral diagnostic features formed in the solar chromosphere are few and difficult to interpret — they are neither formed in the optically thin regime nor in local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE). To probe the state of the chromosphere, both from observations and theory, it is therefore necessary with modeling. I discuss both traditional semi-empirical modeling, numerical experiments illustrat...
متن کاملThe prolate solar chromosphere
We present a comparative analysis of the chromospheric solar limb prolateness, using strictly simultaneous Hα ground-based observations and HeII space-based observations. The typical prolateness is found to be ∆D/D = 5.5 × 10−3 in HeII and 1.2 × 10−3 in Hα. The first measurements in the 30.4 nm HeII line over a period of two years, as well as coronal data, are discussed to explore further the o...
متن کاملThe Non-magnetic Solar Chromosphere
We summarizerecent results from self-consistent non-LTE radiation hydrodynamicssimulations of the propagation of acoustic waves through the non-magnetic solar chromosphere. References to more detailed write-ups of the work are given. The simulations closely match the observed behaviour of Ca II H 2 V bright grains. Observations of CO-lines, that are problematicto explain in semi-empiricalone-co...
