用简正模分解估算太阳纬向环流

Estimating the solar meridional circulation by normal mode decomposition

Lars Krieger, Markus Roth, Oskar von der Luehe

摘要:

本文的目的是使用Braun & Fan(1998)早期建议的Fourier-Hankel分解来估计作为模式穿透深度的函数的综合水平纬向流速,并找到可能改进该技术的方法。我们使用的时间序列的43200(30天)连续的全磁盘多普勒获得的MDI(迈克尔逊多普勒成像仪)仪器搭载SOHO(太阳日光层天文台)航天器在1999年4月。我们发现,平均对流模式的渗透深度在上20毫米的太阳能对流区的15米/秒的估计。这再现了早先调查的结果。此外,我们还认为,这种方法有潜力成为一种新的技术,以测量在深对流区的纬向环流,如果将应用一些改进。

英文摘要:

The objective of this article is to use Fourier-Hankel decomposition as suggested earlier by Braun & Fan (1998) to estimate the integrated horizontal meridional flow velocity as a function of mode penetration depth, and to find ways of potentially improve this technique. We use a time series of 43200 (30 days) consecutive full-disk Dopplergrams obtained by the MDI (Michelson Doppler Imager) instrument aboard the SOHO (Solar Heliospheric Observatory) spacecraft in April 1999. We find averaged meridional flow estimates of 15 m/s for modes with a penetration depth in the upper 20 Mm of the solar convection zone. This reproduces the results of the earlier investigations. Moreover we conclude that this method has the potential to become a new technique to measure the meridional circulation in the deep convection zone, if some improvements will be applied.
