A SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPE STUDY OF OLIVINE CRYSTAL SURFACES

SEM photographs were taken of euhedral olivine grains from the Murchison C2 chondrite and several terrestrial and lunar occurrences. In general, the crystal faces of the meteorite grains are rough and uneven, with irregular growth patterns. They are very similar to crystal faces on terrestrial olivine grains that formed by sublimation from a vapor phase. They are very different from the relatively smooth and featureless surfaces of magmatic olivine crystals that precipitated from igneous melts. Qualitatively, the surface morphology of the crystal supports the contention that many euhedral crystals of olivine in C2 meteorites condensed from a gas phase.     

SOLAR ENERGETIC ION AND ELECTRON LIMITS FROM HIREGS OBSERVATIONS

The HIgh-REsolution Gamma-ray and hard X-ray Spectrometer (HIREGS) consists of an actively shielded array of twelve liquid-nitrogen-cooled germanium detectors designed to provide unprecedented spectral resolution and narrow-line sensitivity for solar gamma-ray line observations. Two long-duration, circumpolar balloon flights of HIREGS in Antarctica (10–24 January, 1992 and 31 December, 1992–10 January, 1993) provided 90.9 and 20.4 hours of solar observations, respectively. During the observations, eleven soft X-ray bursts at C levels and above (largest M1.7) occurred, and three small solar hard X-ray bursts were detected by the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory. HIREGS detected a significant increase above 30 keV in one. No solar gamma-ray line emission was detected. Limits on the 2.223-MeV line and the hard X-ray emission are used to estimate the relative contribution of protons and electrons to the energy in flares, and to coronal heating. For the 2.223-MeV line, the upper limit fluence is 0.8 ph cm^-2 in the flares, and the upper limit flux is 1.8 × 10^-4 ph s^-1 cm^-2 in the absence of flares. These limits imply that 6 × 10³⁰ (2) protons above 30 MeV were accelerated in the flares, assuming standard photospheric abundances and a thick target model. The total energy contained in the accelerated protons >30 MeV is 4 × 10²⁶ ergs, but this limit can be more than 10³⁰ ergs if the spectrum extends down to 1 MeV. The upper limit on the total energy in accelerated electrons during the observed flares can also exceed 10³⁰ ergs if the spectrum goes down to 7 keV. Quiet-Sun observations indicate that 10²⁶erg s^-1 are deposited by energetic protons >1 MeV, well below the10²⁷ –10²⁸ erg s^-1 required for coronal heating, while <3 × 10²⁷ erg s^-1 are deposited by energetic electrons, which does not exclude the possibility of coronal heating by quiet-time accelerated electrons. The quiet-Sun observations also suggest that if protons stored in the corona are to supply the energy for flares, as suggested by Elliot (1964), the proton spectrum must extend down to at least 2 MeV. However, collisional losses at typical coronal-loop densities prevent those low-energy protons from being stored for 10⁴ s. It therefore seems unlikely that the energy for flares could come from energetic protons stored over long periods.     

Analysis of the spectrum of the coronal condensation of the total eclipse of 1983 June 11

We analyzed the spectrum of a coronal condensation observed during the total eclipse of 1983 June 11. Under the assumption of rotational symmetry we found the distributions of the electron density and the temperature. The electron density was higher in the centre of the condensation than on the edge. From different line pairs the maximum electron density was found to be between 1.7 3.5×10⁹cm⁻³ while the temperature was found to be basically uniform at 1.7 2.7×10⁶K. The turbulence velocity was 15 35km/s. The systematic flow of the condensation region with respect to the quiet corona was not more than 15km/s. Discussion of the instrumental profile showed that its effect was small on lines that were much wider than the profile.     

AN EMPIRICAL STUDY OF THE ELECTRON TEMPERATURE AND HEAVY ION VELOCITIES IN THE SOUTH POLAR CORONAL HOLE

The solar wind ions flowing outward through the solar corona generally have their ionic fractions freeze-in within 5 solar radii. The altitude where the freeze-in occurs depends on the competition between two time scales: the time over which the wind flows through a density scale height, and the time over which the ions achieve ionization equilibrium. Therefore, electron temperature, electron density, and the velocity of the ions are the three main physical quantities which determine the freeze-in process, and thus the solar wind ionic charge states. These physical quantities are determined by the heating and acceleration of the solar wind, as well as the geometry of the expansion. In this work, we present a parametric study of the electron temperature profile and velocities of the heavy ions in the inner solar corona. We use the ionic charge composition data observed by the SWICS experiment on Ulysses during the south polar pass to derive empirically the electron temperature profile in the south polar coronal hole. We find that the electron temperature profile in the solar inner corona is well constrained by the solar wind charge composition data. The data also indicate that the electron temperature profile must have a maximum within 2 solar radii. We also find that the velocities of heavy ions in their freeze-in regions are small (<100 km s^-1) and different elements must flow at different velocities in the inner corona.
