SOLAR SPECTROPOLARIMETER FOR SPACE WEATHER FORECAST
Journal Title: Solar-Terrestrial Physics - Year 2019, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
We propose a project of the meter wavelength range solar spectropolarimeter designed for a ground-based network developing for space weather forecast. The Software-Defined Radio (SDR) solution is chosen to meet such instrument network requirements as specification identity, low cost, possibility of controlling and transmitting data remotely via the Internet. Along with these requirements, the proposed SDR solution allows us to measure Stokes I and V easily, which contrasts the proposed instrument with e-CALLISTO network spectropolarimeters, most of which can record only one linear polarization. Deployment of such instruments at various longitudes will allow continuous observation of type II bursts, often related to coronal mass ejections (CMEs) — the most geoeffective solar activity events that affect the space weather significantly.

LONG-TERM TREND OF THE IONOSPHERIC E-LAYER RESPONSE TO SOLAR FLARES
Using data from ground-based vertical sounding of the ionosphere (VS) at the station Moscow and five Japanese stations for the period from 1969 to 2015, we have examined the long-term response of the E layer to solar X-r...
GENERATION OF ALFVÉN WAVES IN MAGNETIZED PLASMA BY LASER PLASMA BUNCHES AT MACH NUMBERS MUCH LESS THAN UNITY
In this paper, we examine a torsional Alfvén wave produced by periodic plasma bunches in a magnetized plasma flux tube. A new effect has been revealed: the wave is generated not only during the action of bunches, but als...
EARLY DIAGNOSTICS OF GEOMAGNETIC STORMS BASED ON OBSERVATIONS OF SPACE MONITORING SYSTEMS
We address the problem of early diagnostics of geomagnetic storms based on the use of models of coordinates of movements of centers of solar coronal mass ejections (CME) and observations of their angular positions obtain...
PECULIARITIES OF ULF WAVE CHARACTERISTICS IN A MULTICOMPONENT IONOSPHERIC PLASMA
We have examined the properties of low-frequency electromagnetic waves in multicomponent ionospheric plasma in the 1–30 Hz band, using the magnetoionic theory. Complex permittivity tensor components and refractive indice...
On possible relation of earthquakes with the sign change of the interplanetary magnetic field radial component
This work is devoted to an experimental study of the possible relationship between earthquakes and interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) variations. For the analysis, we use world and regional catalogs of earthquakes and a...
