背景扣除在TRACE冠状环分析中的重要性

On the importance of background subtraction in the analysis of coronal loops observed with TRACE

S. Terzo, F. Reale

摘要:

在TRACE日冕观测的框架下,我们比较了两种不同的和独立的方法减去背景后的环的分析和诊断。该数据集包括TRACE的171 A、195 A滤波带中的图像序列。一种背景减除方法包括将从围绕所分析的环的同心条带之间的插值获得的那些作为背景值。另一种方法是当循环完全淡出时,对最终图像进行逐像素相减,这已经被Reale & Ciaravella 2006使用。我们比较了这两种方法得到的沿环的发射分布,发现它们有很大的不同。我们发现差异,以及在相关的衍生过滤器的比率和温度分布。特别地,像素到像素的减法导致冷却回路的相干诊断。在另一个减法中,诊断就不那么清楚了。背景减除是循环分析中的一个微妙问题。像素到像素的减法似乎更可靠,但其应用并不总是可行的。由于TRACE观测中的交叉结构和大量减去的发射,从周围区域之间的插值中减去可能产生更高的系统误差。

英文摘要:

In the framework of TRACE coronal observations, we compare the analysis and diagnostics of a loop after subtracting the background with two different and independent methods. The dataset includes sequences of images in the 171 A, 195 A filter bands of TRACE. One background subtraction method consists in taking as background values those obtained from interpolation between concentric strips around the analyzed loop. The other method is a pixel-to-pixel subtraction of the final image when the loop had completely faded out, already used by Reale & Ciaravella 2006. We compare the emission distributions along the loop obtained with the two methods and find that they are considerably different. We find differences as well in the related derive filter ratio and temperature profiles. In particular, the pixel-to-pixel subtraction leads to coherent diagnostics of a cooling loop. With the other subtraction the diagnostics are much less clear. The background subtraction is a delicate issue in the analysis of a loop. The pixel-to-pixel subtraction appears to be more reliable, but its application is not always possible. Subtraction from interpolation between surrounding regions can produce higher systematic errors, because of intersecting structures and of the large amount of subtracted emission in TRACE observations.
