Umbral oscillations in sunspots are identified as a resonant response of the umbral atmosphere to forcing by oscillatory convection in the subphotosphere. The full, linearized equations for magneto-atmospheric waves are solved numerically for a detailed model of the umbral atmosphere, for both forced and free oscillations. Resonant fast modes are found, the lowest mode having a period of 153 s, typical of umbral oscillations. A comparison is made with a similar analysis by Uchida and Sakurai (1975), who calculated resonant modes using an approximate (quasi-Alfvén) form of the wave equations. Whereas both analyses give an appropriate value for the period of oscillation, several new features of the motion follow from the full equations. The resonant modes are due to upward reflection in the subphotosphere (due to increasing sound speed) and downward reflection in the photosphere and low chromosphere (due to increasing Alfvén speed); downward reflection at the chromosphere-corona transition is unimportant for these modes.  相似文献

A series of H-filtergrams, covering about 42 min, was studied in order to obtain quantitative data on the oscillations of the visible chromosphere boundary and on the regularity in position of spicule groups along the limb. The results obtained reveal the existence of relatively slow vertical oscillations (a background) superimposed with those of 5 min period. A horizontal dimension of a spicule group 4000 km; a change of the chromosphere height within the latter occurs practically synchronously. A good correlation of height changes for groups of 25000 km apart is observed.  相似文献

We report on the observation of Doppler oscillations in a quiescent limb prominence. Fourier analysis of the data reveals an oscillatory period of 7.5 min, whose phase varies linearly at 16 consecutive points (7280 km) along the slit. This yields an upper limit for the perturbation wavelength of 20000 km. Wavelet analysis confirms the above period and indicates an oscillation lifetime of 12 min. Moreover, the disturbance appears to travel at a speed greater than 4.4 km s-1. A comparison of these results with the predictions of some theoretical models is made.  相似文献

We have studied through a multiresolution wavelet analysis the oscillations in a limb prominence. Intensity fluctuations in time and height corresponding to different lines of Siiv and Oiv observed with SUMER on board SOHO have been analyzed in the wavelet bands of J3= 1 min 36 s to 3 min 12 s and J4=3 min 12 s to 6 min 24 s. For all species, oscillations in the J4 band were dominant. We found relevant differences between the behavior of line D1 (1393.76 Å) corresponding to Siiv and the set D2 (1401.16 Å), D3 (1404.81 Å), D4 (1402.77 Å) corresponding to Oiv, Oiv and Siiv respectively. We also report the identification of a pulse in the intensity of the line D1 that appears in the range of 15–20 min. This disturbance seems to travel with a speed of about 170 km s–1.  相似文献

The positions of X-ray coronal transients outside of active regions observed during Skylab were superposed on H synoptic charts and coronal hole boundaries for seven solar rotations. We confirmed a detailed spatial association between the transients and neutral lines. We found that most of the transients were related to large-scale changes in coronal hole area and tended to occur on the borders of evolving equatorial holes.Skylab Solar Workshop Post-Doctoral Appointee, 1975–1977.  相似文献

We have obtained the temporal correlation function, Q(t), from time sequences of Caii K filtergrams and Dopplergrams from Antarctica, Taiwan Oscillation Network (TON) and Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO). Q(t) gives the time evolution of the pattern under examination, supergranulation in this case. It has been found that Q(t) shows oscillatory signals of both 5-min and long-term periods. The 5-min oscillations are suppressed by averaging the images over 10 min. An exponential decay curve which represents the lifetime trend of supergranules, is fitted to Q(t) and subtracted out. The Q(t) residuals thus obtained contain the oscillatory component and are then subjected to a periodogram analysis. Significant periodicities in the range of 1.4–10 hours have been noted. The causes of these oscillations are not fully known at present, but the instrumental and atmospheric factors can be ruled out, pointing to solar origin. Various possibilities are discussed. Some of the observed periodicities may be considered as probable candidates for long-term oscillations in the Sun, such as the elusive gravity modes.  相似文献

Observations of two quiescent filaments show oscillatory variations in Doppler shift and central intensity of the He i 10830 Å line.The oscillatory periods range from about 5 to 15 min, with dominant periods of 5, 9, and 16 min. The 5-min period is also detected in the intensity variations, after correction for atmospheric effects. Doppler shifts precede intensity variations by about one period. The possibility that the oscillations are Alfvén waves is discussed.The Doppler signals of the filament form fibril-like structures. The fibrils are all inclined at an angle of about 25° to the long axis of the filament. The magnetic field has a similar orientation relative to the major direction of the filament, and the measured Doppler signals are apparently produced by motions along magnetic flux tubes threading the filament.The measured lifetimes of the small-scale fibrils of quiescent disk filaments are very likely a combined effect of intensity modulations and reshuffling of the structures.  相似文献

The 5-min oscillations in the photospheric velocity fields have been studied in detail from measurements on 14 absorption lines from three time sequences of spectrograms of high quality. The lines cover a range of heights in the solar atmosphere from log = + 0.2 to -1.2. Regions oscillating coherently are seen to have an average dimension of 8000 km and the oscillations in general last for 2 to 3 periods. The power spectrum analysis of high resolution enabled to determine the period of oscillation at each level very precisely. The period decreases with increase in height, being 304 s at the level log = + 0.2 and 295 s at the level log = -1.2. The low level lines possess considerable power in the low frequency range representing the convective overshoot from below. The oscillatory power increases with height, while the low frequency power decreases and the high frequency component remains substantially constant in the heights studied.The intensity fluctuations in the continuum, the line wing and core of Fe i 6358.695 have also been studied. The continuum power spectrum has practically all the power near the zero frequency range, with a very weak oscillatory component. The line wing intensity fluctuations resemble those in the continuum, whereas the line core clearly shows an oscillatory component similar to the velocity oscillations.  相似文献

Spectroheliograms with high spatial resolution are presented to illustrate the decomposition of the solar velocity field into its oscillatory and slowly-varying components. An analysis of data obtained in the lines Fei λ 5434 and Feii λ 4924 yield essentially the same principal results:
  1. Spectroheliograms of the oscillatory component have a mottled appearance of rising and falling elements ranging from 2000 km to 3000 km in size. These elements oscillate vertically with a period in the range 275–300 s and an amplitude of 0.5 km/s. Although most oscillations last two cycles some have been observed for as many as four cycles.
  2. Spectroheliograms of the slowly-varying component show a velocity granulation pattern whose spatial properties correspond closely to those of the photospheric granulation visible on direct photographs of the Sun. The velocity granules are approximately 1000 km in diameter and rise relative to their intergranular spaces with speeds that are typically 0.6 km/s, but which may occasionally be as large as 0.9 km/s. Most velocity granules seem to live for at least 10 min with many lasting 10–30 min, and a few of the biggest and fastest moving lasting 30 min to 1 hr.
It is concluded that Spectroheliograms of the slowly-varying component represent the velocity field of the photospheric granulation.  相似文献

Non-divergent oscillations having the form of deep water waves are shown to form normal modes or free oscillations of the solar atmosphere under two approximations: the chromosphere-coronal interface behaves like a free surface, and the density scale height is sufficiently large in the convective zone. These modes show the temporal and spatial characteristics of the 300 second chromospheric oscillations.  相似文献

Observations made by the differential method in the H line have revealed longperiod (on a timescale of 40 to 80 min) line-of-sight velocity oscillations which increase in amplitude with distance from the centre to the solar limb and, as we believe, give rise to prominence oscillations. As a test, we present some results of simultaneous observations at the photospheric level where such periods are absent.Oscillatory processes in the solar chromosphere have been studied by many authors. Previous efforts in this vein led to the detection of shortperiod oscillations in both the mass velocities and radiation intensity (Deubner, 1981). The oscillation periods obtained do not, normally, exceed 10–20 min (Dubov, 1978). More recently, Merkulenko and Mishina (1985), using filter observations in the H line, found intensity fluctuations with periods not exceeding 78 min. However, the observing technique they used does not exclude the possibility that those fluctuations were due to the influence of the Earth's atmosphere. It is also interesting to note that in spectra obtained by Merkulenko and Mishina (1985), the amplitude of the 3 min oscillations is anomalously small and the 5 min period is altogether absent, while the majority of other papers treating the brightness oscillations in the chromosphere, do not report such periods in the first place. So far, we are not aware of any other evidence concerning the longperiod velocity oscillations in the chromosphere on a timescale of 40–80 min.Longperiod oscillations in prominences (filaments) in the range from 40 to 80 min, as found by Bashkirtsev et al. (1983) and Bashkirtsev and Mashnich (1984, 1985), indicate that such oscillations can exist in both the chromosphere and the corona (Hollweg et al., 1982).In this note we report on experimental evidence for the existence of longperiod oscillations of mass velocity in the solar chromosphere.  相似文献

In a two-fluid component universe consisting of visible matter and neutrinos, the developed features of perturbations in the two components are quite different. If the densities 1 and 2, and the Jeans lengths 1J and 2J of the two components satisfy the relations 12, 1J2J, the developed inhomogeneities in the non-dominant component 1 are larger than those in the dominant component 2. Moreover, the increase of perturbations is in some situations not monotonous but oscillatory, and such oscillations in the two components are contrary.  相似文献

The amplitudes of solar oscillations measured in Doppler velocity are modulated by the presence of a strong photospheric magnetic field. Here we show that the amount of modulation cannot be predicted solely on the local photospheric magnetic field strength. Qualitatively, magnetic fields of similar strength have similar effects on the oscillations. Quantitatively, however, we find a neighborhood effect, so that the presence of a nearby sunspot affects oscillations in the area in its vicinity that has normal quiet-Sun magnetic field strength. Thus, different types of magnetic regions alter the oscillatory power to a varying degree, and the p-mode power within regions of similar magnetic field strength is more reduced if there is a sunspot present. The neighborhood effect falls off with distance from the sunspot. We also show that our measurements of the power modulation, in which we look at the effects on oscillations pixel by pixel, can be made consistent with results of amplitude modulation of modes as obtained from ring-diagram analysis of active regions, but only if the neighborhood effect on quiet-Sun regions is taken into account.  相似文献

We used the Sacramento Peak Doppler-Zeeman Analyzer to study the velocity and magnetic fields in 60 × 300 areas on the solar disk. We map the steady component of the line-of-sight velocity and longitudinal magnetic fields and compare them with the coarse Ca+ network. The collective phase behavior of the 5-min oscillations is studied in detail. We find large scale phase coherence, including waves with typical horizontal phase velocities of 100 km/sec which can be followed up to 50 000 km. The important oscillatory features are interpreted in terms of the properties of modified sound waves. We find no apparent relationship between the steady and oscillatory fields.  相似文献

Grand unified theories predict baryon number violating interactions and one of the implications of this is the possible existence of neutron-antineutron oscillations. The neutron-antineutron oscillations have been considered in the neutron rich astrophysical sources such as solar flares, supernovae explosions, neutron stars and the nucleosynthetic phase of the early universe in order to partly account for the antiproton flux of the cosmic rays at low energies and the -ray emission, at GeV energies. Low magnetic fields and high neutron concentrations provide the right environment for the production of antineutrons and hence antiprotons and GeV rays.  相似文献

Observations of the continuum microwave flux at 2.8 cm from quiet regions of the solar disc reveal low amplitude, quasiperiodic fluctuations at periods of 234 s and 150 s. For oscillating elements 10 arc seconds in extent, the corresponding peak to peak temperature variations are 230 K and 190 K. The energy flux in the oscillations is estimated to be 2.5x102 ergs cm2 s–1, assuming they are caused by acoustic waves. If the oscillating elements are 1 arc second in extent, the energy flux is comparable to that required for coronal heating.No evidence is found for strong oscillations at periods greater than 250 s, although other authors have claimed microwave detection of strong fluctuations at periods of 280 s and 400 s.  相似文献

We examine how the initial state (pre-event corona) affects the numerical MHD simulation for a coronal mass ejection (CME). Earlier simulations based on a pre-event corona with a homogeneous density and temperature distribution at the lower boundary (i.e., solar surface) have been used to analyze the role of streamer properties in determining the characteristics of loop-like transients. The present paper extends these studies to show how a broader class of global coronal properties leads not only to different types of CMEs, but also modifies the adjacent quiet corona and/or coronal holes.We consider four pre-event coronal cases: (1) constant boundary conditions and a polytropic gas with = 1.05; (2) non-constant (latitude dependent) boundary conditions and a polytropic gas with = 1.05; (3) constant boundary conditions with a volumetric energy source and = 1.67; (4) non-constant (latitude dependent) boundary conditions with a volumetric energy source and = 1.67. In all models, the pre-event magnetic fields separate the corona into closed field regions (streamers) and open field regions. The CME's initiation is simulated by introducing at the base of the corona, within the streamer region, a standard pressure pulse and velocity change. Boundary values are determined using MHD characteristic theory.The simulations show how different CMEs, including loop-like transients, clouds and bright rays, might occur. There are significant new features in comparison to published results. We conclude that the pre-event corona is a crucial factor in dictating CMEs properties.  相似文献

A simple energy model of a sunspot as a compact magnetic feature is described where the main energy contribution is provided by the coolest and most compressed part of the magnetic force tube of the spot at depths ranging from Wilson’s depression level (300–500 km) down to 2–3 thousand km. The equilibrium and stability conditions for such a system are analyzed using the variation principle, and oscillations of the system as a whole about the inferred equilibrium position are studied. The sunspot is shown to be stable in the magnetic field strength interval from 0.8–1 to 4–5 kG. The dependence of the eigenfrequency on magnetic field strength ω(B) is computed for the main oscillatory mode, where only the umbra of the sunspot takes part in oscillations, ω = ω 1 (B). Lower subharmonics may appear in the case where penumbra too becomes involved in the oscillatory process: ω 2 = ω 1/2, ω 3 = ω 1/3. Theoretical curves agree well with the observational data obtained in Pulkovo using various independent methods: from temporal variations of sunspot magnetic field and from line-of-sight-velocity measurements. The periods of oscillations found range from 40 to 200 minutes.  相似文献

The time dependence of Doppler shift and line-center intensity is simultaneously observed for the H emission of three solar prominences, each one during about two hours. Doppler oscillations with periods near one hour and amplitudes between 1 and 2 km s–1 are conspicuously visible in the recordings of all three prominences. Fourier analysis yields periods of 50, 60, and 64 min, as well as slight indications of short periods near 3 and 5 min. No oscillations are found in the line-center brightness.  相似文献

The nonlinear self-excited oscillations of the envelopes of low-massive highly luminous stars are described. The parameters for these models wereM=0.8M ,M bol=–5.5, –5.84 mag,T eff=4500, 5000, 5500 K. The oscillations have been found to consist of the standing wave pulsation near the envelope bottom and running waves in outer layers. The ratio of the standing wave frequency s to the average frequency of the running waves r increases with the stellar luminosity: s / r =1.7 whenM bol=–5.5 mag and s / r =2.4 whenM bol=–5.84 mag. The frequency of oscillations near the photosphere is found to be in close agreement with the critical frequency for running waves. Mass loss from these stars is caused by shocks. It has been shown that agreement between FG Sge's period change observed during the last decade and the period-luminosity relation for double shell stars takes place when FG Sge's luminosity isM bol=–5.96 mag.  相似文献
