Moreton waves observed at Hida Observatory

Moreton waves are flare-associated waves observed to propagate across the solar disk in Halpha, especially in the wing of Halpha. The Flare Monitoring Telescope at Hida Observatory of Kyoto University observed 12 events associated with flare waves (i.e., Moreton waves and/or filament oscillations) in Halpha from 1997 to 2002. We review our studies of Moreton waves based on these observations; relation between EIT wave and Moreton wave (Eto et al. 2002),simultaneous observation with X-ray wave (Narukage et al. 2002),three dimensional structure of flare-associated wave (Narukage et al. 2004),relation between Moreton waves and filament eruptions.
