CMP_NAMEEIT Shutterless Mode Observations
OBJECTIVE Monitoring long-term changes in the small-scale dynamics of all kinds of solar structures in TR (304 Angstrom) with EIT running for 2 hours on shutterless, at a cadence and exposure time of 68s, and with a large field of view: quarter disk: one corner is near disk center and the outer edges are just beyond the limb at pole and equator.

Description of field of view


efr20010711.153735

NE corner of disk

  • Near E limb large AR complex AR no.'s 9534 and 9533.
  • Around the N-pole a corner of Polar CH (NW side showed more Polar CH, but much less QS)
  • West of AR no. 9533 possibly a small N-S oriented Equatorial CH
  • Between ARs and CH a zone of QS
  • Large quiescent prominence crossing from NE limb roughly horizontally up to EQ CH, then orientated N-S, running to W of EQ CH. Part of the prominence is visible in emission over NE limb.

    Events

    A C2.4 flare occured in time-span 17h03-17h11 (in FOV on limb in AR no. 9503 ?)

    In first batch of images (16h01m24s -> 16h46m00s)

  • downflows are observed over E-limb, over AR complex.
  • south of downflow region, a cool loop is slowly expanding an brightening
  • prominence over limb is slowly evolving
  • 3 macro-spicules vsisible near N-pole: two simultaneous at start sequence and one in middle of sequence.
  • spicule-brightening near center FOV.

    In second batch of images (16h52m25s -> 17h37m28s)

  • downflows in same region as before
  • off-limb up & downflow observed S of downflow region
  • between the two previous regions, a loop structure on limb brightens and expands, just after a small downflow touched down at one end.
  • up and down flow on disk in AR triggers an up & downflow in another loop near down loop footpoint, close to limb. A material connection between loop and nearby prominence is possible, as it shows slow flow patterns towards that region.
  • several medium spicules near N-pole.

    In third batch of images (17h43m40s -> 18h28m12s)

  • Large downflow surge to region just north of brightening region
  • Brightening region expands and brightens more just after downflow touches down, as if the material fills up a new low-lying bright loop.
  • Downflows in off-limb loops just S of brightening region
  • In all three batches of images, bright little dots feature in the off-limb corona above the AR, maybe shutterless artifacts, but from where some downflows seem to originate.
  • Up & downflows visible on-disk in AR.
  • A new prominence seem to have formed where previously flows in loops with conenction to the quiescent prominence were seen
  • Again several medium spicules near N-pole.
