    Sources of magnetic fields in recurrent interplanetary streams (1978)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: The paper examines sources of magnetic fields in recurrent streams observed by the Imp 8 and Heos spacecraft at 1 AU and by Mariner 10 en route to Mercury between October 31, 1973 and February 9, 1974, during Carrington rotations 1607-1610. Although most fields and plasmas at 1 AU were related to coronal holes and the magnetic field lines were open in those holes, some of the magnetic fields and plasmas at 1 AU were related to open field line regions on the sun which were not associated with known coronal holes, indicating that open field lines may be more basic than coronal holes as sources of the solar wind. Magnetic field intensities in five equatorial coronal holes, certain photospheric magnetic fields, and the coronal footprints of the sector boundaries on the source surface are characterized.

    Synoptic analysis of interplanetary radio scintillation spectra observed at 34 MHz (1978)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Synoptic observations of the temporal power spectrum of interplanetary scintillations were made in the summer of 1976 on the University of Iowa's Cocoa Cross radio telescope and the University of Maryland's TPT array. Most of the observations were at large (larger than 40 deg) solar elongations. It was found that the power spectrum broadens when enhanced turbulence at the front of a high-speed solar wind stream sweeps over the earth. In the case with sufficient synoptic coverage, the broadening appeared to result from the relative closeness of the enhanced scattering region rather than from an increase in velocity. A small percentage of the spectra displayed two power law components with a plateau between them. These may result from a flattening in the spatial turbulence spectrum such as has been observed by spacecraft.

    Does the emission measure decrease during the start of a soft X-ray flare (1978)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: It is suggested that the apparent emission dip found in soft X-ray flare observations, interpreted as the emission from a single temperature plasma, is an artifact. According to this hypothesis, the flare phenomenon represents a combination of flare plus a stable active region plasma. A small amount of hot flare plasma will dominate the total emission, and the calculated isothermal plasma parameters will trend towards those of the hot flare plasma, so that a decrease in emission measure will be inferred. It is claimed that observed data fit the model of a stable plasma plus a flare plasma better than it does the model of a single plasma, in accordance with a chi square statistic. The model of stable plasma plus flare plasma is also supported by the observation that the plasma parameters in the postflare condition are indistinguishable from those during preflare.

    Temperature and ionization balance dependence of O VII line ratios (1978)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: The forbidden-plus-intersystem to resonance line ratio (G) for the heliumlike ion O VII is calculated, taking into account cascades, blended satellite lines, and radiative plus dielectric recombination. It is noted that G is of particular use for investigating radiative-transfer effects and nonequilibrium ionization in the solar corona and that the calculations are applicable to a low-density optically thin Maxwellian plasma. The temperature dependence of G is considered for the case of a steady-state equilibrium plasma, and the effect of departures from ionization equilibrium on G is examined. It is found that G is quite insensitive to temperature over the range from 600,000 to 6 million K for a steady-state plasma, but that recombinations may be suppressed or dominant, depending on the relative abundance of O VIII, for a plasma in which the state of ionization is not in equilibrium with the electron temperature. This latter effect is shown to be capable of causing large variations in G that are dependent on electron temperature.

    European Space Agency studies of the solar probe (1978)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-01-16
    Description: The feasibility and scientific objectives of a solar probe were studied by a Mission Definition Group in 1975 and 1976. The orbit analysis program was developed and an extended study of the orbit analysis was done in 1977. The results of these studies are in the Report of the Mission Definition Study (1976) and an E.S.O.C. report (1978), and the reader is referred to these sources for greater details. In this report, only brief discussion on mission concept and objectives, satellite design, orbit, orbit analysis, are presented.

    A solar wind experiment for the solar probe mission (1978)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-01-16
    Description: Electron and ion plasma measurements on Solar Probe are important, especially to elucidate the role of coronal holes as sources of the solar wind and to resolve the long debated question of the importance of wave heating within 20 solar radii to the acceleration of the solar wind. Adaptable instruments are required to cover the large dynamic range of parameters between 1 AU and 4 solar radii. The baseline mission would be improved, in some respects, by the addition of a second spacecraft, following the first by a distance of several solar radii. A spinning spacecraft would be satisfactory, but not essential, for the present objectives. Attention should be paid to having the heat shield electrically conducting. An instrument for ion and electron (but no composition) measurements would have a mass of approximately 10 kg, require 8 w of power, and generate data at a maximum rate of approximately 2 kbits/sec.

    High resolution stereoscopic X-ray imaging of coronal features during a solar probe flyby (1978)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-01-16
    Description: The possible role of solar probe mission in answering fundamental questions about the structure and heating of coronal loops is examined. The experimental technique consists of imaging 1-10 keV X-rays to give accurate temperature profiles of hot active regions and post-flare loops. A limitation on the interpretation of such pictures is that steroscopic reconstruction of the three dimensional arches requires many lines of sight. This kind of information can be provided only by a rapid solar flyby. In addition, the proximity to the sun will provide useful spatial resolution with compact instrumentation. The pictures thus obtained will provide crucial tests of theoretical models of coronal arches.

    Comments on the drag-free control of a solar probe relativity mission (1978)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-01-16
    Description: A spacecraft going within 4 solar radii of the Sun experiences an acceleration up to .00005 g from solar radiation pressure, and significant (though smaller) accelerations from the solar wind. To obtain satisfactory information about relativistic effects and the Sun's quadrupole mass coefficient, these non-gravitational accelerations are either measured or compensated out by making the spacecraft drag free. A proof mass inside the spacecraft structure is shielded from the external forces, so that it follows a nearly ideal gravitational orbit, and a control system activates gas jets (or other translational forcers) to make the vehicle follow the mass. The problems are mechanizing the control laws and minimizing extraneous effects such as the self gravitational pull of the spacecraft. The extraneous forces can be averaged in one plane by having a spinning vehicle.

    The importance of determining the solar quadrupole moment (1978)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-01-16
    Description: Current theoretical modelling of the sun is in difficulty. Additional observations must be made to place constraints on the plethora of conjectures that have been advanced to explain the low neutrino flux and to guide solar model builders in their search to understand the deep interior of the sun. A determination of the magnitude of the solar quadrupole moment, is one such constraint; it places limits on the density, angular velocity and magnetic field distributions inside the sun.
