Measure of Solar oscillations and supergranulation with Magnetic-Optical Filter

Astrophysics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Helioseismology is the branch of the Solar Physics which studies the solar global oscillations, a phenomenon very important in order to understand the inside of the Sun. We explain here a method for measuring the solar velocity fields along the line of sight by the VAMOS instrument developed at the Astronomical Observatory of Capodimonte in Naples, in particular we present the measures of the so called five-minutes oscillations and of the Supergranulation.
