Objective
The project is aimed to the study of the physical processes in the solar corona using observations with unique radiotelescopes RATAN-600 (Russia) Metsähovi (Finland) at mm-cm wavelengths. Therewith the coronae of late- type stars are also considered with taking into account solar-stellar analogy. Particular objectives of the project are as follows:
Origin of coronal mm-wave sources (CMMS) observed occasionally at heights up to 0.4 solar radii.
Origin of 'peculiar' sources on the Sun which are located above magnetic neutral line and have a very unusual frequency spectrum.
Diagnostics of solar and stellar coronal plasmas using the observation data on radio, optical and X-ray radiation.
The project will carry out simultaneous observations of the selected solar active regions at RATAN-600 and Metsähovi radiotelescope covering 3 mm - 30 cm waveband. The results of observations should be 3D-picture of the sources with spatial resolution of about several arcsec, and time profiles at more then 35 wavelengths both in intensity and polarization with millisecond time resolution. This data contains unique information on the coronal plasma parameters as well as on the particle acceleration and dynamics, plasma heating, energy transfer and energy release in the coronae. The goal of the project is also the theory of radioemission from CMMS with taking into account both thermal and nonthermal emission mechanisms and source inhomogeneity. Method of coronal plasma diagnostics using mm-wave and X-ray emission from the Sun as well as from the red dwarfs and RS CVn systems will be applied. The project participants (joint Russian- Finnish- German team) have an experience of more than a decade long cooperation which has been productive and fruitful. The project doesn't require any individual grants for Russian participants, only funds for the equipment and travel.
The results will be published in main journals and will be presented at the international conferences.
