RESUMO
The heating of the solar chromosphere and corona is a long-standing puzzle in solar physics. Hinode observations show the ubiquitous presence of chromospheric anemone jets outside sunspots in active regions. They are typically 3 to 7 arc seconds = 2000 to 5000 kilometers long and 0.2 to 0.4 arc second = 150 to 300 kilometers wide, and their velocity is 10 to 20 kilometers per second. These small jets have an inverted Y-shape, similar to the shape of x-ray anemone jets in the corona. These features imply that magnetic reconnection similar to that in the corona is occurring at a much smaller spatial scale throughout the chromosphere and suggest that the heating of the solar chromosphere and corona may be related to small-scale ubiquitous reconnection.
RESUMO
A shift-and-add (SAA) operation is conducted to reconstruct a high-spatial-resolution image from atmospherically degraded solar images. The self-deconvolving data reconstruction algorithm is used to augment high-spatial-frequency components in solar speckle images and rectify the background component that results from the SAA operation. Self-deconvolved solar speckle images are shift and added and the resulting image shows high-spatial-resolution features.
