    Notes: [Auszug] There are two possible explanations for why sunspots are dark: the partial suppression by the sunspot magnetic fields of convective energy transport from the underlying layers, or the removal of energy from the sunspot by enhanced hydromagnetic wave radiation. Both processes would reduce the ...

    Notes: Abstract New center-to-limb measurements in FeI lines show changes in both the line profiles and the limb darkening curves that appear to be characteristic of many other solar lines. Here we seek the constraints placed on the atmospheric model by these effects. We find that in addition to a depth varying source function we must also allow the ratio of the continuous absorption coefficient to the total absorption coefficient to pass through a minimum in the mid-photosphere. Such an effect is consistent with inward increases of the Doppler width and damping constant in the upper photosphere and an inward increase of the ionization for both iron and hydrogen in the low photosphere.

    Notes: Abstract Bright emission arches in the spectra of Hα and the Ca II (H and K lines) are identified as the spectroscopic picture of the chromospheric network as it appears near the solar limb. Analysis of the geometrical properties of these spectroscopic arches indicates that the average network is a diverging sheet with a divergence angle of ∼ 50°. This sheet extends to 2600 km and 2000 km as an opaque emission feature in Hα and the Ca II (H and K) lines, respectively.

    Notes: Abstract We obtained simultaneous spectra with a spatial resolution of 1/2″ and a temporal resolution of 15 s in Hα, Ca ii-K, Caii 8542 Å, and three Fei lines of the sunspot group responsible for the large flares of August, 1972 (McMath No. 11976). A time series taken 1972, August 3 in the Fei 6173 Å Zeeman sensitive line was analyzed for oscillations of field strength and the angle between the field and the line of sight, and for changes of the field associated with the Ca ii-K umbral flashes discovered by Beckers and Tallant (1969). The power spectra show no significant peaks, conflicting with the results of Mogilevskii et al. (1972) who reported oscillations in the longitudinal component of the field strength with periods of 56, 90, and 150 s. Changes in the field were not observed to be correlated with the occurrence of umbral flashes. These results place restrictions on magnetic modes of energy transport between the photospheric layers and the chromospheric layers where the umbral flashes are observed.

    Notes: Abstract The discussion of the Hα double limb had reached the point where the question of its existence as a real solar phenomenon could not be resolved without new observations made with the Lockheed filter and the Mount Wilson spectroheliograph. A study of the instrumental profiles had indicated that there was sufficient off-band light to produce the observed inner limb step in the Mount Wilson instrument, but this analysis was not completely satisfactory because of limitations inherent in the measurement of instrument functions with a Hg-198 source. The instrumental profile work did indicate, however, that the spectral purity of the instruments in question could be substantially improved by the use of narrow-band interference filters. An experimental program was thus launched to determine the effect of such a blocking filter on the appearance of the Hα limb. The results of these observations with three Halle filter systems and the Mount Wilson spectroheliograph are that the inner limb completely disappears at the center of Hα when a blocking filter is used to reduce unwanted light, which originates at wavelengths beyond ±0.8 Å. In addition, the contrast and visibility of the chromospheric fine structure is increased by eliminating the off-band light. Thus the experiment conclusively demonstrates that the apparent inner limb is not a solar feature but is due entirely to instrumental parasitic light.

    Notes: Abstract Four Mt. Wilson measurements (T〉4 h) of the photospheric motion at one point on the Sun are shown to have the characteristics of a narrow-band random process. The motion is shown to have a characteristic correlation time of 23 min and a mean power spectrum that is a smooth, single-peaked function centered at 3.4 mHz. In order to make this classification we use the analytic signal to estimate the amplitude, phase, and frequency as functions of time. The power spectrum analysis differs from the common approaches in that it uses the theoretical expression for the mean spectrum for a sequence of random pulses. Because of the random nature of the motion, we doubt the existence of more than one eigenfrequency characteristic of the photosphere as a whole. Likewise, any description of the observed motion in terms of simple deterministic functions will be inadequate for the data used here.

    Notes: Abstract A more objective statistical technique is applied directly to the four time series used in Paper I. The empirical probability density functions indicate that the measurements are realizations of a narrow-band random process with Gaussian statistics. This result allows quantitative statistical use of the mean autocorrelation function. For example, a characteristic correlation time is 23 min, and the motion becomes statistically uncorrelated over intervals greater than 40 min. The mean autocorrelation function is found to be free of secondary maxima that have been so troublesome in other analyses. The question raised in this paper is whether our statistical model of the motion as a Gaussian random process is also applicable to smaller regions on the order of 1″ to 2″ in size.

    Notes: Abstract We report high resolution measurements of the center-to-limb variation of the Mgi line at 4571.1 Å. This forbidden line is of interest because it should be formed in LTE. Comparison of our measurements with the Harvard-Smithsonian Reference Atmosphere show that the line center radiation originates in the temperature minimum region from 330 to 550 km above the point where τ continuum = 1. Observations near the limb confirm that the temperature minimum is ∼4200K.

    Notes: Abstract A new series of photometric observations of the H and K lines were obtained at Sacramento Peak Observatory in 1964 and 1965. In both the observations and the data reduction special attention was given to obtaining a suitable average over the solar fine structure and to defining a proper reference continuum. The results are that the central intensities of H and K are the same and equal to 4.2% of the continuum. The limb-darkening curves at the line centres are also the same for both lines.

    Notes: Abstract We describe a tangential limb spectrum at 5870 Å which geometrically probes the high photosphere through the low chromosphere. Velocity and brightness structures with sizes ranging from 500 to 1500 km are present in the stronger emission lines. Such structure is consistent between the Fe i and Ba ii lines, and emission knots in these lines coincide with continuum bright streaks. But no correlation is evident between structure in the He i D3 line, emission in the Na i D2 line, and emission in the Fe i and Ba ii lines as a group. Two classes of near-horizontal velocity structure are seen in the height range from 0 to 500 km above the limb: υ ⪝ 1 km s−1 for the weaker metals and υ ∼ 7–10 km s−1 for the Na i line. Differences in line opacity are suggested as the cause of the low correlation between the fine structure in the various lines.
