| 内容記述 | The close temporal correlation between the ultraviolet line emission from OV (lambda 1371A) and hard X-rays above 30 keV has been previously established from a comparison of data sets from the Ultraviolet Spectrometer and Polarimeter (UVSP) and Hard X-Ray Burst Spectrometer (HXRBS) instruments on Solar Maximum Mission (SMM). Corresponding features were found to be coincident to within 1 s. Following the SMM repair, similar measurements were made for a flare occurring on May 20, 1984, at 0259 UT, this time with UVSP observing in the continuum near 1600A with much higher time resolution (75ms). The simultaneity of several features in this flare were established to better than 0.1 s, thus reinforcing the close relationship between hard X-ray and UV emission. Following the repair of the UVSP wavelength drive, similar measurements were repeated for a flare occurring at 0148 UT on April 24, 1985. This event was observed simultaneously in the OV line, the UV continuum and in hard X-rays by the same SMM instruments. Temporal comparisons of the three data sets show that, for a few selected features, simultaneity of the hard X-ray and UV emissions does exist. However, cross-correlation analyses of the entire data sets indicate that there is a trend for the fastest OV emission features to be delayed with respect to the hard X-rays by approx. 260 ms. On the other hand the fast OV and UV continuum features are simultaneous to within the instrumental uncertainty. The combined results have established the close relationship of the impulsive phase hard X-ray and UV continuum and OV line emissions. They lend support to the argument that both the hard X-ray and UV radiations originate low in the solar atmosphere. |
