The SUMER spectral atlas of solar-disk features

Solar H i Lyman α full disk profile obtained with the SUMER / SOHO spectrometer

An uncalibrated solar hydrogen Lyman α profile was obtained with the use of the spectrometer on SOHO. The collection of the light scattered by the telescope permitted to average the profile over the full solar disk. The profile taken at the L1 Sun-Earth Lagrangian position is free of the central geocoronal absorption. Then, taking advantage of the absolute flux measured by the SOLSTICE/UARS spe...

the impact of skopos on syntactic features of the target text

the present study is an experimental case study which investigates the impacts, if any, of skopos on syntactic features of the target text. two test groups each consisting of 10 ma students translated a set of sentences selected from advertising texts in the operative and informative mode. the resulting target texts were then statistically analyzed in terms of the number of words, phrases, si...

Simultaneous Observations of the Solar Limb with TRACE and SUMER

Spectral features of solar wind turbulent plasma

Spectral properties of a fully compressible solar wind Hall Magnetohydrodynamic plasma are investigated by means of time dependent three dimensional Hall MHD simulations. Our simulations, in agreement with spacecraft data, identify a spectral break in turbulence spectra at characteristic length-scales associated with electromagnetic fluctuations that are smaller than the ion gyroradius. In this...

Solar spicules and macrospicules observed by SUMER

Motivated by recent observations of spicules and macrospicules in the far-ultraviolet (FUV) wavelength range with the Solar Ultraviolet Measurements of Emitted Radiation spectrograph (SUMER) on the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO), a generation mechanism for spicules and macrospicules is outlined which deviates significantly from most of the previous concepts. The important aspect is t...
