The longitudinal distribution of the green corona activity

Two solar cycle observational material (1947–1968) from several corona stations brought to one intensity scale have been used to study the longitudinal distribution of the green corona activity. The active longitudes rotating with a period of 28 days are visualized. There is only very small dependence of the rotational period on the heliographic latitude. This fact recalls the known theory of the underphotospheric rigid body rotation.     

Differential rotation of the solar atmosphere as determined from millimeter data

Radiospectroheliograms obtained at millimeter wavelengths were used to determine the rotation of the solar atmosphere. Regions observed in both emission as well as absorption (associated with H dark filaments) were followed across the disk. The average sidereal rotation rate deduced from emissive regions is given by (deg day^-1)=14.152(±0.270)-4.194(±3.017)sin² B, where B is the heliographic latitude and the quoted errors are the standard deviations of a least squares fit to the data. The rate deduced from absorption regions is given by =14.729(±0.286)-1.050(±1.611)sin² B. This rate is larger than that of emissive regions at all latitudes and shows smaller differential rotation. This apparent difference in the rotation rates is probably due to the difference in the height of formation of the emissive and absorption regions. This difference could be used to estimate the difference in height between an emissive region and an absorption feature in millimeter radiation.     

Solar polar spin-down

An explanation for the solar differential rotation is proposed that makes use of angular momentum transfer in the solar wind and corona. Evidence suggests that for most of the solar cycle, the solar wind is connected by magnetic field lines to high heliographic latitudes on the Sun.Thus the angular momentum lost to the solar wind would present a preferential drag to the photospheric material at high heliographic latitudes. It is shown that this drag is sufficient to offset the restoring forces of the Sun's subsurface magnetic field. In fact, the subsurface magnetic field and differential rotation are thought to grow until the stresses are sufficient to balance the torque induced by the solar wind. The present level of differential rotation and solar activity may be maintained by an intricate feedback mechanism involving the whole solar activity cycle.A power calculation based upon this model suggests the Sun's core rotates with a period of between 0.5 and 5 days. Furthermore, this view requires a major change in present theory of solar magnetic field generation.     

CCD-Doppler measurements of solar differential rotation

Using the AT1 CCD camera at the Echelle spectrograph of the GCT at Tenerife, solar Doppler rotation measurements in the photospheric lines Fe I 6301.5 Å and 6302.5 Å and in the chromospheric line Na-D₂ 5890.0 Å have been made. The line shifts measured at different heliographic latitudes around the limb were corrected for observer motion and converted into sidereal rotation rates. At the equator the observed chromospheric rotation rate is about 8 % larger than the photospheric rate, and the average observed Doppler rotation rate is not very much different from the mean rotation rates deduced from all published tracer works and all published Doppler works. Near the poles (where tracer methods rely on extrapolation) both the chromospheric and the photospheric rotation rate are slightly smaller than the all Doppler rate and are considerably smaller than the extrapolated all tracer rate. If all previous measurements of solar rotation are taken into account, a surface rotation law with lower error bounds than previously possible can be derived.     

Multiperiodic irradiance changes caused by r-modes and g-modes

More than 20 real periodicities ranging from 20 days to 2 years modulate the solar irradiance data accumulated since November 1978 by Nimbus 7. Many are quite strong during the first three years (solar maximum) and weak after that. There is a high correspondence between periods in irradiance and 28 periods predicted from the rotation and beating of global solar oscillations (r-modes and g-modes). Angular states = 1, 2, and 3 are detected as well as some unresolved r-mode power at higher . The prominence of beat periods implies a nonlinear system whose effective nonlinear power was measured to be about 2. This analysis constitutes a detection of r-modes in the Sun and determines from them a mean sidereal rotation rate for the convective envelope of 459 ± 4 nHz which converts to a period of 25.2 days (27.l^d, synodic).     

On the dependence of the linear velocity of solar rotation on latitude and optical depth

The law of solar axial rotation is investigated by the spectroscopic method. Fayes formula: () = 2.03 – 1.6 sin followed from a great number of observations (800 different values of velocity derived from an investigation of 800 spectral lines of different intensity and of different elements). The dependence of the solar rotation on the depth in the atmosphere was investigated. For this purpose the optical depths of the formation of the core of 800 spectral lines were determined. The dependence of the rotational velocity on the heliographic latitude and the depth in the atmosphere is well described by the empirical formula (Equation (5) in the text).The main conclusion of this investigation is the existence of an anomaly in the rotational velocity of the Sun at heliographic latitude 25°. Moreover the amplitude of the deflexion of the rotational velocity at the above-mentioned latitude varies with the optical depth.     

High-Latitude Solar Rotation Traced by Magnetic Elements

Sequential observations at Huairou Solar Observation Station, China, and Kitt Peak, U.S.A., show that polar magnetic elements can live from several to more than 58 hours. This enables measurement of the solar rotation rate near the polar region by tracing magnetic element motions. With observations carried out on 8–15 July 1997, we identify and trace more than 1300 elements at north heliographic latitudes between 55°–85° using two methods, and fit the mean sidereal rotation rate as =14.0±0.54–(2.24±1.22)sin²–(1.78±0.79)sin⁴ deg per day.     

Spectroscopic Studies of the Solar Corona – V. Physical Properties of Coronal Structures

Spectra around the 6374 Å [Fex] and 7892 Å [Fexi] emission lines were obtained simultaneously with the 25-cm coronagraph at Norikura Observatory covering an area of 200 ×500 of the solar corona. The line width, peak intensity and line-of-sight velocity for both the lines were computed using Gaussian fits to the observed line profiles at each location (4 ×4 ) of the observed coronal region. The line-width measurements show that in steady coronal structures the FWHM of the 6374 Å emission line increases with height above the limb with an average value of 1.02 mÅ arc sec^–1. The FWHM of the 7892 Å line also increases with height but at a smaller average value of 0.55 mÅ arc sec^–1. These observations agree well with our earlier results obtained from observations of the red, green, and infrared emission lines that variation of the FWHM of the coronal emission lines with height in steady coronal structures depends on plasma temperatures they represent. The FWHM gradient is negative for high-temperature emission lines, positive for relatively low-temperature lines and smaller for emission lines in the intermediate temperature range. Such a behaviour in the variation of the FWHM of coronal emission lines with height above the limb suggests that it may not always be possible to interpret an increase in the FWHM of emission line with height as an increase in the nonthermal velocity, and hence rules out the existence of waves in steady coronal structures.

Transformation of the absolute solar radiation data into the ‘International Practical Temperature Scale of 1968’

Corrections are given which transform the Tables of the solar radiation data (Labs and Neckel, 1968) into the International Practical Temperature Scale of 1968. Additionally, for the adjustment of the data of the true continuum and the corresponding line blanketing as well, the veiled line effect mentioned first by Carbon et al. (1968), but studied in more detail by Holweger (1970a), has been considered also.The corresponding corrections of the solar irradiance result in an improved value of the spectrophotometric solar constant: S = 1.947 cal cm^-2 min^-1 or 0.1358 W cm^-2. Two Tables presenting the highest (window-) intensities and the corrected irradiance data have been added.

Recurrence of solar activity: Evidence for active longitudes

The autocorrelation coefficients of the daily Wolf sunspot numbers over a period of 128 years reveal a number of interesting features of the variability of solar activity. In addition to establishing periodicities for the solar rotation, the solar activity cycle, and perhaps the Gleissberg Cycle, they suggest that active longitudes do exist, but with much greater strength and persistence in some solar cycles than in others. There is evidence for a variation in the solar rotation period, as measured by sunspot number, of as much as two days between different solar cycles.The National Center for Atmospheric Research is sponsored by the National Science Foundation.

Drift Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities in space plasmas

We implement a complex-plane strategy and a multiple partition technique to the computation of polytropic models distorted by very strong and very rapid differential rotation. We also verify with our numerical results a heuristic relation between stability and virial theorem.     

Numerical implementation of a perturbation theory up to the third order for rotating polytropic stars: Application to a solar model

Numerical treatment of a pertubation theory up to the third order yields quantitative estimates for an interesting polytropic solar model possessing differential rotation of Clement's type. A suitably defined reduction factor, otherwise referred to as strength, moderates the effects of the differential rotation and the so resulting limiting state represents efficiently uniform rotation of the model. The numerical results obtained are compared to respective ones derived from an original numerical implementation of a second-order perturbation theory.     

The loss-cone driven instability for Langmuir waves in an unmagnetized plasma

Analytic and numerical results are presented for the growth rate of Langmuir waves due to a loss-cone distribution of energetic electrons. The effect of the magnetic field on the wave-particle interaction is ignored, and the resonance condition is described in terms of a resonance hyperboloid in momentum space. The collisional evolution of a distribution of magnetically trapped electrons is followed numerically to show how a gap distribution develops. The growth is most favorable for an intermediate sized loss cone ( 45 °) and a gap distribution in which the mean energy of the suprathermal electrons is much larger than the thermal energy of the background electrons. It is plausible that loss-cone gap distributions do develop in the solar corona, and that they should lead to second harmonic plasma emission weakly polarized in the x-mode.     

Search for the matter clumps in scalesZ ~ 1

The diagramV - log(1 +z _e ) as function of (, ) is considered for the quasars. HereV is the apparent visual magnitude,z _e is the emission line redshift, and are the equatorial coordinates. Two opposite extreme spots NE and SE are observed on the sky, where the inclination of the straight line fitting the dependenceV - log(1 +z _e ) is maximum and minimum. The coordinates of the centres of these extreme spots are ( _NE, _NE) = (282°, +42°) and ( _SE, _SE) = (70°, -38°) with errors 5°. A hypothesis of the Superattractor (SA) is proposed to explain such an effect. Two independent tests of this hypothesis are realized. First, the dependence or the frequency a of the absorbers in QSO spectra on (, ) is investigated. A region of the larger a is found. The coordinates of its centre are (, ) = (82°, - 10°) with error 5°. Second, the cases ofz _a >z _e are plotted in the Mercatorial projection (, ). The most of the casesz -z _e > 0.02 are concentrated within the circle with radiusR = 34° and centre (, ) = (50°, - 15°). The both anomalous regions overlap the Southern extreme spot around SE. The SA direction is (, ) = (67°, -21°) with errors about 12°. The redshift of SA isz _SA = 1.7 ± 0.3 that corresponds to the distancer _SA = (3100 ± 300)h ^–1 Mpc for the Hubble constantH ₀ = 75h kms^–1 Mpc^–1. The SA mass isM _SA ~ 10¹⁸-10²⁰ M . The orientation of the normal to the quasiperiodical large-scale sheet structure on the sky occurs near SA.
