Relationship between the coronal green line brightness and magnetic field strength
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 March 2005
Abstract
The quantitative relation between the brightness of the coronal green line 530.5 nm Fe XIV and the magnetic field strength is considered over the 1977-2001 period. It is found that the correlation coefficients between these two parameters calculated separately inside and outside the sunspot formation zone $\pm 30^{\circ}$ have cyclic variation and occur in anti-phase. This suggests different mechanisms of formation of the corona in the fields of small, medium, and large scales. These results can be used for quantitative verification of the corona heating models.To search for other articles by the author(s) go to: http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html
