U.S.- Korea Cooperative Research in Solar Physics

9816267good本奖项提供资金，允许博士。Philip R. Goode, Haimin Wang, Dale E. Gary，和Jeong Woo Lee，新泽西理工学院物理系，追求博士。首尔大学天文系教授尹洪植（音译）和釜山通明信息技术大学教授崔光善（音译）进行了为期36个月的太阳物理合作研究。本研究的科学目标是了解(1)太阳的磁场结构及其演变与日珥的形成、激活和喷发的关系；(2)日珥与耀斑之间的物理联系；(3)与太阳耀斑相关的磁场变化；(4)太阳耀斑中的高能电子。这些调查将有助于理解磁场在太阳两大谜团中的作用：日珥和耀斑。美国新泽西理工学院的太阳能小组运营着两个主要的太阳天文台：大熊太阳天文台（BBSO）和欧文斯谷射电天文台（OVRO）的太阳能阵列。BBSO通过光度法和偏振法的组合工具提供光球层和色球层的高分辨率观测，这将补充正在进行的美国太空任务，对日冕和过渡区域进行成像。OVRO太阳能阵列提供微波波段的成像光谱，提供太阳耀斑和活动区的关键参数。韩国的太阳天文学家将利用他们在应用于太阳光谱线的辐射转移和太阳细丝建模方面的专门知识，参与这些天文台收集的大型数据库的数据整理和分析工作。该项目将加强备受尊敬的美国和韩国研究团队之间的合作。该项目与美韩合作科学项目的目标相关，该项目旨在通过科学信息、思想、技能和技术的交流以及在互利问题上的合作，提高美韩科学家和工程师之间的合作水平。韩国的参与得到了韩国科学与工程基金会（KOSEF）的支持

9816267GoodeThis award provides funds to permit Drs. Philip R. Goode, Haimin Wang, Dale E. Gary, and Jeong Woo Lee, Department of Physics, New Jersey Institute of Technology, to pursue with Drs. Hong Sik Yun, Astronomy Department, Seoul National University, and Gwang-Son Choe, Tongmyong University of Information Technology, Pusan, for 36 months, a program of cooperative research in solar physics. The scientific objectives of this research are to understand (1) the magnetic field configuration of the sun and how its evolution is associated with the formation, activation, and eruption of prominences, (2) the physical connection between prominences and flares, (3) the magnetic field changes associated with solar flares and (4) the energetic electrons in solar flares. These investigations will contribute to understanding the role of magnetic fields in two big solar mysteries: prominences and flares.The U.S. solar group at New Jersey Institute of Technology operates two major solar observatories: Big Bear Solar Observatory (BBSO) and the solar array at Owens Valley Radio Observatory (OVRO). BBSO provides high-resolution observations of the photosphere and the chromosphere through the combined tools of photometry and polarimetry which will complement ongoing US Space missions which image the corona and the transition region. The solar array at OVRO offers imaging spectroscopy at microwave wavelengths which provide key parameters of solar flares and active regions. The Korean solar astronomers will participate in aspects of data reduction and analysis of the large database gathered at these observatories using their expertise in radiative transfer applied to solar spectral lines, and modeling of solar filaments. This project will strengthen collaboration between highly respected U.S. and Korean research teams. This project is relevant to the objectives of the U.S.-Korea Cooperative Science Program which seeks to increase the level of cooperation between U.S. and Korean scientists and engineers through the exchange of scientific information, ideas, skills, and techniques and through collaboration on problems of mutual benefit. Korean participation is supported by the Korea Science and Engineering Foundation (KOSEF).***
