卡林顿磁暴期间东亚低纬极光观测
East Asian Observations of Low Latitude Aurora during the Carrington Magnetic Storm
摘要:
1859年9月2日左右的磁暴,由所谓的卡林顿耀斑引起,是现代科学观测史上最强烈的磁暴,因此被认为是空间天气的基准事件。这次磁暴引起了全球范围内的极光观测,即使在夏威夷、巴拿马或圣地亚哥等极低纬度地区,印度孟买的磁场测量也显示出两个峰值:主要的是在东亚白天发生的卡林顿事件,以及卡林顿事件之后在东亚夜间发生的第二场风暴。本文介绍了东亚地区极光观测记录的结果,为这一重大事件的极光活动提供了新的信息。我们发现了一些新的东亚低纬极光观测记录,这些记录是由卡林顿事件后的风暴引起的。卡林顿磁暴第二峰的极光带比通常的低纬度极光事件还要宽。
英文摘要:
The magnetic storm around 1859 September 2, caused by so-called Carrington flare, was the most intense in the history of modern scientific observations, and hence is considered to be the benchmark event for space weather. The magnetic storm caused worldwide observations of auroras even at very low latitudes such as Hawaii, Panama, or Santiago, and the available magnetic field measurement at Bombay, India, showed two peaks: the main was the Carrington event which occurred in day time in East Asia, and a second storm after the Carrington event which occurred at night in East Asia. In this paper, we present a result from surveys of aurora records in East Asia, which provides new information of the aurora activity of this important event. We found some new East Asian records of low latitude aurora observations caused by the storm which occurred after the Carrington event. The size of the aurora belt of the second peak of the Carrington magnetic storm was even wider than usual low-latitude aurora events.
