内容記述 | Properties of the lower solar transition region as determined from UV spectral lines recorded by the Naval Research Laboratory HRTS are investigated. The spectra were obtained from a rocket flight in July 1975. Variations of intensity ratios of strong lines of C IV, Si IV, C II, Si III, and O IV over the entire field of view of the HRTS instrument, which extends from disk center to the solar limb are discussed. The largest apparent abundance variations appear to be in the active regions surrounding a sunspot. The C/Si ratio is lower in the active regions than anywhere else in the instrument field of view, implying a lower C/Si abundance ratio in the active regions. There is a possible correlation of line intensity variation in the active region with Doppler shift of the lines; the explanation for this is unclear. The magnitude and reality of intensity ratio variations of all observed solar features are discussed, and monotonic center-to-limb intensity ratio variations due to the opacity of some of the spectral lines are measured. |
