โœฆ Synopsis


On June 9, 1973, a flare associated burst was observed with the NRAO 3-element interferometer at 3.7 and 11.1 cm wavelength. The burst was of 'gradual rise and fall' type. Comparing the fringe amplitudes at 3.7 cm to the visibility computed for model flare regions we found that the precursor data are best fitted by a region of 3" in size while at the time of the peak, the flare appears to have a size of 2". During the post-maximum phase a size of 5" is the best estimate. Similar computations have been done for 11.1 cm data. The peak brightness temperatures are 1.2 โ€ข 109 K and 1.65 โ€ข l0 s K at 3.7 and 11.1 cm respectively. Such high temperatures would imply that a significant fraction of the burst radiation has a non-thermal origin.

The three-element interferometer of the National Radio Astronomy Observatory was used to observe the Sun at 3.7 and 11.1 cm wavelengths during the period June 5-9, 1973. The baselines of the interferometer were 900, 1800 and 2700 meters, with maximum angular resolution of 3" at 3.7 and 9" at 11.1 cm

Several solar active regions were observed during the 1976 vernal equinox with the 3-element interferometer of the National Radio Astronomy Observatory. The element spacings for these observations were 600, 2100, and 2700 m, resulting in maximum angular resolutions of about 3 arc sec at 3.7 cm and 8
