Height Measurements of S-Components
Abstract
The direct measurement of the height of the radio source above a solar active region was done by the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope when the source crossed the west limb. The height of the brightest part was 12000 km above the limb. The result of the disk observation is also presented and the emission mechanisms of the observed sources are discussed.
