测量太阳的经向环流

Measuring Meridional Circulation in the Sun

Thomas L. Duvall,, Shravan M. Hanasoge

摘要:

测量日冕流的深度变化对于理解太阳活动周期是很重要的,至少根据一些发电机模型是这样。在试图扩展\citet{giles_thesis}对流量时间-距离测量的早期观察时,我们偶然发现了一些可能影响这些测量的系统误差:1)来自远离盘中心的点的辐射所传播的额外距离导致了明显的“收缩”太阳,即朝向盘中心的明显流动,以及2)在远离中心经度的测量中,旋转信号可能泄漏到双相流信号中。试图理解和克服这些系统性的问题将被提出。基于射线理论的正演模型已被应用,以测试旅行时间对各种模型的敏感性。

英文摘要:

Measuring the depth variation of the meridional flows is important for understanding the solar cycle, at least according to a number of dynamo models. While attempting to extend the early observations of \citet{giles_thesis} of time-distance measurements of flow, we have stumbled upon some systematic errors that can affect these measurements: 1) the additional distance traveled by radiation coming from points away from disk center causes an apparent `shrinking' Sun, that is an apparent flow towards the disk center and 2) in measurements away from the central longitude, the rotation signal can leak into meridional flow signals. Attempts to understand and overcome these systematic problems will be presented. Forward models based on ray theory have been applied in order to test the sensitivity of travel times to various models.
