    Enhancement of solar heavy nuclei at high energies in the 4 July 1974 event (1977)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: Relative abundances of energetic nuclei in the July 4, 1974, solar event are presented. The results show a marked enhancement of abundances that systematically increase with nuclear charge numbers in the range of the observation (Z between 6 and 26) for energies above 15 MeV/nucl. While such enhancements are commonly seen below 10 MeV/nucl, most observations at higher energies are found to be consistent with solar-system abundances. The energy spectrum of oxygen is observed to be significantly steeper than most other solar events studied in this energy region. It is proposed that these observations are characteristic of particle populations at energies of the order of 1 MeV/nucl and that the anomalous features observed may be the result of the high-energy extension of such a population that is commonly masked by other processes or populations that might occur in larger solar events.

    Atmospheric turbulence and the apparent instantaneous diameter of the sun (1977)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: Astrometric data are perturbed by turbulent density fluctuations in the atmosphere over the frequency range from 0.0001 to 10 Hz by amounts that would limit the accuracy of solar-diameter measures significantly. Power spectra of the perturbations are compared with meteorological data to argue that thermal turbulence is dominant above 0.001 Hz and that mechanical turbulence (weather) is important below that frequency. Noise power in astrometry should be comparable under night or day conditions, but site location may be important for the strength of slowly passing waves.

    Do surges heat the corona (1977)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: A comparison of X-ray filtergrams obtained during the Skylab mission 8 hr before and within 4 hr following 54 active region surges on the disk revealed only 6 cases of long-enduring, large-scale (exceeding 10,000 km) coronal enhancements that might have been associated with surge activity. It is concluded that there is no evidence for any substantial increase in the temperature or amount of coronal material during reported surges.

    Measurements of H-beta, He D3, and Ca/+/ 8542-A line emission in quiescent prominences (1977)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Measurements of H-beta, He D3, and Ca(+) 8542-A line emission in 18 quiescent prominences are presented which were performed with a 25-cm coronagraph/coude spectrograph system and an optical multichannel analyzer utilizing a Si-vidicon detector assembly mounted at the single-pass spectrograph port. The data obtained show that the line profiles deviate in the wings from those calculated on the basis of an isothermal atmosphere and a Gaussian absorption coefficient. Both a non-Gaussian microturbulence component and a temperature gradient from prominence-core to coronal values can successfully account for this phenomenon. The line widths from a given line of sight of prominence material are reduced on the basis of a common core emitting region with a temperature of 7500 to 11,600 K and a microturbulent velocity of 4.5 to 7.1 km/s for the isothermal model (these values are 5% to 10% less for the two-temperature model). It is noted that long-period low-amplitude oscillations in the D3 line width and intensity were observed when a specific line of sight in a quiescent prominence was followed. These oscillations are found to remain coherent for as many as 3 or 4 cycles and to be associated with prominence structural activation.

    August 1972 solar-terrestrial events - Observations of interplanetary shocks at 2.2 AU (1977)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Simultaneous magnetic field and plasma observations on Pioneer 10 were used to identify three shocks and a plasma driver (possible flare ejecta) at 2.2 AU caused by the four large solar flares of August 2-7, 1972. Two shocks, the first and third, were forward shocks, while the second was a reverse shock. The local inertial velocities of all three shocks were estimated under the assumption of quasi-perpendicularity, i.e., the shocks were assumed to be propagating principally across, rather than along, the interplanetary magnetic field.

    Do changes in coronal emission structure imply magnetic reconnection (1977)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Several physical processes that can affect the emission from structures in the corona are investigated on the basis of images of coronal X-ray and XUV emission structures. Changes in emission accompanied by little or no change in large-scale magnetic structure are examined, and three theoretically distinct processes by which magnetic structure can change are discussed: reconfiguration of potential (current-free) fields, reconfiguration of frozen-in fields, and reconfiguration by magnetic-field-line reconnection. The possibility is considered of determining by observation whether a change in emission results from a magnetic change and, if so, what kind of magnetic change has occurred. It is concluded that changes in coronal emission structure do not necessarily imply magnetic reconnection.

    Soft X-ray observations of large-scale coronal active region brightenings (1977)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: One hundred fifty-six large-scale enhancements of X-ray emission from solar active regions were studied on full-disk filterheliograms to determine characteristic morphology and expansion rates for heated coronal plasma. The X-ray photographs were compared with H-alpha observations of flares, sudden filament disappearances, sprays, and loop prominence systems (LPS). Eighty-one percent of the X-ray events were correlated with H-alpha filament activity, but only 44% were correlated with reported H-alpha flares. The X-ray enhancements took the form of loops or arcades of loops ranging in length from 60,000 km to 520,000 km and averaging 15,000 km in width. Lifetimes ranged from at least 3 hr to more than 24 hr. The event frequency was approximately 1.4 per day. X-ray loop arcades evolved from sharp-edged clouds in cavities vacated by rising H-alpha filaments. Expansion velocities of the loops were about 50 km/s immediately after excitation and 1-10 km/s several hours later. These long-lived loop arcades are identified with LPS, and it is suggested that the loops outlined magnetic fields which were reconnecting after filament eruptions. Another class of X-ray-enhanced loops stretched outside active regions and accompanied sprays or lateral filament ejections. It is suggested that these loops outlined closed magnetic fields guiding slow-mode shocks from flares and filament eruptions.

    Isotopic anomalies and proton irradiation in the early solar system (1977)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Nuclear cross sections relevant to the various isotopic-abundance anomalies found in solar-system objects are evaluated in an attempt to set constraints on the hypothesized mechanism of irradiation of forming planetesimals by energetic protons from the young sun. A power-law proton spectrum is adopted, attention is restricted to proton energies less than about 20 MeV, and average cross sections are calculated for several reactions that might be expected to lead to the observed anomalies. The following specific anomalies are examined in detail: Al-26, Na-22, Xe-126, I-129, Kr-80, V-50, Nb-92, La-138, Ta-180, Hg-196, K-40, Ar-36, O-17, O-18, N-15, C-13, Li, Be, and B. It is suggested that the picture of presolar-grain carriers accounts for the facts more naturally than do irradiation models.

    Computer solutions for studying correlations between solar magnetic fields and Skylab X-ray observations (1977)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: A method is described which correlates the NASA-Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) Image Data Processing System (IDAPS) and MSFC magnetograph data to X-ray and H-alpha observations from the Skylab mission. Solutions of Laplace's equation in three dimensions, based on the magnetograph data, are convolved with observed X-ray and H-alpha regions. Matched filtering (template matching) provides a best fit of the observed X-ray regions to the computed total magnetic vector magnitude between 10,000 and 15,000 km above the photosphere.
