Power spectrum analysis of limb and disk spicule using Hinode Ca H-line broadband filter

Tavabi, E.

We present observations of a solar quiet region obtained using the Hinode Solar Optical telescope (SOT) in the Ca II H-line with broadband filter taken on November 2006. We study off-limb and on-disk spicules to find a counterpart of the limb spicule on the disk. This investigation shows a strong correspondence between the limb and near limb spicu…

Observation of kink waves and their reconnection-like origin in solar spicules

Ebadi, H.; Ghiassi, M.

We analyze the time series of Ca II H-line obtained from Hinode/SOT on the solar limb. We follow three cases of upwardly propagating kink waves along a spicule and inverted Y-shaped structures at the cusp of it. The time-distance analysis shows that the axis of spicule undergos quasi-periodic transverse displacement at different heights from the p…

Oscillations in solar jets observed with the SOT of Hinode: viscous effects during reconnection

Koutchmy, S.; Tavabi, E.

Transverse oscillatory motions and recurrence behavior in the chromospheric jets observed by Hinode/SOT are studied. A comparison is considered with the behavior that was noticed in coronal X-ray jets observed by Hinode/XRT. A jet like bundle observed at the limb in Ca II H line appears to show a magnetic topology that is similar to X-ray jets (i.…

On vortex motion in chromospheric network boundaries

Tavabi, E.

A large percent of spicules shows a surge-like behavior on the solar limb, supporting a multi-component model with twisted threads. The counterpart of limb spicules foot-points is investigated on the disk, and this re-examination indicates that the interpretation of transverse motion of off-limb spicules could directly be related to rotational mot…
