Diagnostic Potential

<div>The Sun frequently accelerates near-relativistic electron beams that travel out through the solar corona and interplanetary space. Interacting with their plasma environment, these beams produce type III radio bursts, the brightest astrophysical radio sources detected by humans. The formation and motion of type III fine frequency structures is a puzzle but is commonly believed to be related to plasma turbulence in the solar corona and solar wind. Combining a theoretical framework with kinetic simulations and high-resolution radio type III observations, we quantitatively show that the fine structures are caused by the moving intense clumps of Langmuir waves in a turbulent medium. Our results show how type III fine structure can be used to remotely analyse the intensity and spectrum of compressive density fluctuations, and can infer ambient temperatures in astrophysical plasma, both significantly expanding the current diagnostic potential of solar radio emission.</div><div> </div>

The Sun

Radio astronomy has been expanding into outer space so fast in recent years that it is pleasant to find our own solar system at last receiving the attention it deserves. In this session we are concerned with everything within the system except the sun and our own planet. I start with a question, to which I shall return later: Where does the sun end? In another session you will hear of the experiments on the far-out parts of the solar corona; here we are concerned with interplanetary space as well as with the planets themselves, and what lies within this region may or may not be considered part of the solar corona.

Interplanetary Mission

The mission of HELIOS had been started in order to investigate in situ the innermost regions of the interplanetary space. The two spacecraft achieved a perihelion of about 0.3 AU solar distance. Fig. 1 is a sketch of the two orbits. The orbital periods are 190 resp. 186 d.
