نویسندگان
چکیده
On the base of the 17 GHz radio maps of the Sun taken with the Nobeyama Radio Heliograph we estimate plasma parameters in the specific region of the sunspot atmosphere in the active region AR 11312. This region of the sunspot atmosphere is characterized by the depletion in coronal emission (soft X-ray and EUV lines) and the reduced absorption in the a chromospheric line (He I 1.083 μm). In the ordinary normal mode of 17 GHz emission the corresponding dark patch has the largest visibility near the central solar meridian. We infer that the reduced coronal plasma density of about ∼ 5 × 10 cm−3 is the characteristic feature of the dark patch.

A study on Ca II 854.2 nm emission in a sunspot umbra using a thin cloud model
In the present work, we introduce and explain a method of solution of the radiative transfer equation based on a thin cloud model. The efficiency of this method to retrieve dynamical chromospheric parameters from Stokes I profiles of Ca II 854.2 nm line showing spectral emission is investigated. The analyzed data were recorded with the Crisp Imaging Spectro-Polarimeter (CRISP) at Swedish 1-m So...

The article describes microwave observations of the Sun with the radio telescope RT-32 of the Ventspils International Radio Astronomy Center. The observations were performed using a multichannel spectral polarimeter for the 6.3–9.4 GHz frequency range. A set of 2D microwave emission maps of the Sun for the Stokes I and V parameters has been obtained and analyzed.
متن کاملThe dependence of the magnetic field strength of a sunspot umbra on its intensity and brightness temperature
A partial decrease of the convective energy by the magnetic field of a sunspot causes the temperature of the magnetized plasma to decrease and this leads to a magneto-hydrostatic equilibrium. Thus, we expect a strong relation between magnetic field strength of a sunspot and its temperature/brightness. Here, we investigate this relation in the umbra of the large sunspot in NOAA10930 using spectr...
متن کاملSolar Mini-Dimming Kinematics and Their Positive Correlations with Coronal Mass Ejections and Prominence
Solar mini-dimmings can be detect in the Extreme Ultra-Violet coronal eruptions. Here, sequences of 171_A images taken by Solar Dynamic Observatory/Atmospheric Imaging Assembaly on 13 June 2010 are used. In this special day, both of coronal mass ejection and prominence were observed. The average velocities and accelerations of 500 mini-dimmings which were detected using on feature based classif...
