Interferometric Observations of the Active Regions in Radio Domain Before and After the Total Solar Eclipse on 21 August 2017
Abstract
We hereby present the interferometric LOFAR observations made before and after the total solar eclipse on 21 August 2017, during which the type III radio bursts have been detected.The LOw-Frequency ARray (LOFAR) is a large radio interferometer operating in the frequency range of 10-240 MHz, designed and constructed by ASTRON (the Netherlands Institute for Radio Astronomy). The LOFAR telescope is an array of stations distributed throughout the Netherlands and other parts of Europe. Currently the system consist of 52 LOFAR stations located in Europe. Apart from the high time and frequency resolution of the dynamic spectra, LOFAR allows also a 2D imaging of the radio sources and tracking of their positions through the solar corona.In this work we present a preliminary analysis of the dynamic spectra of type III radio bursts with radio images.
