N.; Loboda, V. I. Bibcode: 2001KFNT...17..478K Altcode: The case of the non-Gaussian Doppler profiles of spactral lines (at a small optical thickness of the investigation object) is considered. It is shown that such a sitiation may exist not only at the non-Maxwellian velocity distribution, but at the Maxwellian distribution as well. The reason is that turbulent elements may have different radiation intensities, which is a realistic assumption, but this was ignored in the analyses of solar flares and other astrophysical objects. Title: CCD observations of the Sun at the Balmer and Paschen continua. Authors: Kurochka, L. N.; Belkina, I. L.; Beletskij, S. A.; Korokhin, V. V.; Marchenko, G. P. Bibcode: 1999A&AT...18..265K Altcode: Preliminary results of solar CCD observations of the Balmer and Paschen continua and of the Balmer precontinuum are presented. The Balmer precontinuum intensity distribution for the emission features of AR 7890 NOAA/USAF are obtained. The limits of electronic concentration in the plasma volume along the line of sight are evaluated for an emission feature from this AR. Solar monitoring at the hydrogen series continua and precontinua appears to have considerable promise. Title: Subtelescopic structure of the solar corona at observation in Thomson and Balmer continuum. Authors: Kurochka, L. N.; Matsuura, O. T.; Picazzio, E.; Tellefsen, V.; Stegmann, S.; Bedaque, I. P.

N.; Belkina, I. L.; Beletskij, S. A.; Korokhin, V. V.; Marchenko, G. P. Bibcode: 1997AZh....74..460K Altcode: The first results of CCD observations of the sun in the Balmer and Paschen continua and in the Balmer precontinuum are presented. The intensity distribution in the Balmer precontinuum in a knot in the active region NOAA/USAF 7890 provides information about inhomogeneities in the electron density of the plasma along the line of sight. The value of conducting monitoring observations of this kind is demonstrated. Title: Observations and analysis of emission from solar active regions at the edge of the Balmer continuum Authors: Kurochka, L. N.; Belkina, I. L.; Beletskii, S. A.; Korokhin, V. V.; Marchenko, G.

Bibcode: 1997SoPh..170..227K Altcode: The brightness of the solar corona due to Thomson scattering depends linearly on the electron density, while the brightness due to the Balmer continuum is proportional to its square. As a consequence, information on the distribution of the electron density in the corona can be obtained by comparing the radial profiles of the surface brightness in both continua. This idea was explored for the first time in the solar eclipse of November 03, 1994, in Foz do Iguaçu, PR, Brazil. Pictures of the corona were obtained with interference filters, one centered at 477 nm (Thomson continuum) and another one at 347 nm (Balmer continuum). The second filter also transmits the Thomson continuum through its spectral window, so that the Balmer images contain Thomson contamination. This paper reports on the observational results and presents their preliminary analysis. It was found that in certain radial directions, the normalized profiles of both continua (Thomson and contaminated Balmer) coincide, but in other directions they differ significantly. The non-coincident profiles may only occur if Balmer emission becomes important in relation to the Thomson scattering. A simple calculation shows that in such cases the electron density in the inner corona must exceed the values of standard models by up to ≃ 6.1 × 104 times, maintaining however the total number of electrons along the line of sight in agreement with the prediction of standard models. It is concluded that the corona contains high electron concentration in cloudlets of subtelescopic sizes down to ≃ 106 cm. The varied behavior of the radial profiles of both continua in different radial directions, suggests that the subtelescopic structures might be related to the spatially variable topology of coronal magnetic flux tubes. Title: Objectives of a Ukrainian solar-oriented satellite. Authors: Kryachko, I. P.; Kurochka, L. N.; Tel'Nyuk-Adamchuk, V. V. Bibcode: 1997ASIC..494..233K Altcode: 1997topr.conf..233K The project is focused on the ultilization of the Ukrainian space technology and industrial potential, within the framework of the National Space Agency of Ukraine activity. The initial stages of the project are: concept formulation, compilation of preliminary proposals, outlining of the set of appropriate scientific experiments to be made in space, matching both the demands of scientific experiments and the technical possibilities for their accomplishment, in light of the desirable orbit parameters, satellite orientation accuracy, and so on. Title: A possibility for studying subtelescopic structures in the solar corona. Authors: Kryachko, I. P.; Kurochka, L. N.; Tel'Nyuk-Adamchuk, V. V. Bibcode: 1997ASIC..494..177K Altcode: 1997topr.conf..177K It is shown that information on the existence of subtelescopic (unresolved) inhomogeneities having increased density in the coronal structures may be obtained by comparing two filtergrams one either side of the Balmer jump, one at λ < 365 nm and the other at, for example λ = 580 nm or λ = 477 nm. Title: Reobservation of Subtelescopic Coronal Condensation in the Solar Eclipse of February 26, 1998 Authors: Picazzio, E.; Matsuura, O. T.; Kurochka, L. N.; Fogliano, F. I.

Bibcode: 1995SoPh..156...65K Altcode: It is shown that, according to accepted theoretical concepts, there should be no intensity jump at the edge of the Balmer continuum, nor at that of other hydrogen series. We point out three reasons for a fairly smooth increase of the intensity to occur at the continuum edge. As a result, `the jump' sometimes spreads over hundreds of ångstroms, due mainly to the electron density inhomogeneity of solar plasma. Furthermore, the Doppler and Stark effects also give rise to a considerable spread of the series edge. We point out that excess continuum emission over a relatively narrow spectral interval before the continuum edge can result from overlapping of line wings. Title: On the Recording of Regions with Increased Plasma Density on the Sun Authors: Kurochka, L. N.; Kriachko, I. P.; Markova, E. Bibcode: 1992SoPh..139..275K Altcode: For the purpose of studying the statistics, dynamics, and morphology of parts of the solar surface with enhanced emission measure and considerable inhomogeneities of electron concentration, it is suggested that a new type of solar observation be introduced: taking filtergrams by means of interference filters, calculated for the Balmer continuum limit and the region of the blue continuum. To determine accurately the inhomogeneity of the electron concentration in an object, it is suggested to scan the surface of the object and record the spectrum of the blue continuum by means of a spectrochronograph. Title: Structural changes in the solar corona during the July 1991 eclipse Authors: Zirker, J. B.; Koutchmy, S.; Nitschelm, C.; Stellmacher, G.; Zimmermann, J. P.; Martinez, P.; Kim, I.; Dzyubenko, N.; Kurochka, L.; Makarov, V. Bibcode: 1992A&A...258L...1Z Altcode: Preliminary results of the analysis of radially filtered pictures obtained at several hours interval during the July 11, 1991 total solar eclipse are given. Instrumental parameters and method are outlined. Structural changes are discussed. Title: The solar corona of July 11, 1991. Observations in Brazil (MICE). Authors: Dzyubenko, N. I.; Kurochka, L.

N.; Tel'Nyuk-Adamchuk, V. V. Bibcode: 1992VisKi...6..100D Altcode: Information is given about the Kiev University expedition for the total solar eclipse on 11 July 1991 observation in Brazil (dynamics and structure of the solar corona) and in Mexico (investigation of solar diameter variations). The expedition was successful, photographs of the solar corona and photometric records of the solar flux near the total eclipse phase were obtained. Title: Registration of macro- and micro-inhomogeneities of plasma density in astrophysical objects. Authors: Kurochka, L. N. Bibcode: 1991KFNT....7...31K Altcode: 1991KFNT....7d..31K; 1991KNFT....7...31K Expedience of observations of extended astrophysical objects (like solar formations) using a broad-band filter behind the Balmer limit is indicated. These filtergrams may give information on macroscopic inhomogeneities of plasma density. It is shown that rather good knowledge about micro-inhomogeneities of plasma density (on the subtelescopic level) and extension of the volumes with different electron density can be received from intensity distribution in the Balmer or other hydrogen series precontinuum. Title: Registration of macro- and micro-inhomogeneities of plasma density in astrophysical objects. Authors: Kurochka, L. N. Bibcode: 1991KPCB....7d..25K Altcode: 1991KPCB....7...25K The advantages of setting up observations of extended astrophysical objects (such as solar formations) using a broadband filter beyond the limit of the Balmer continuum are indicated. The filtergrams would give information on macroscopic plasma-density inhomogeneities. It is shown that a rather complete picture of plasma-density micro-inhomogeneities (at the subtelescopic level) and extended regions with contrasting electron densities can be obtained from data on the intensity distribution in the region of the Balmer precontinuum or the precontinuum of another series. Title: Microinhomogeneities and Macroinhomogeneities of Density in a Quiescent Prominence Authors: Kurochka, L. N.; Kiryukhina, A. I. Bibcode: 1990LNP...363..238K Altcode: 1990IAUCo.117..238K; 1990doqp.coll..238K The analysis of a bright prominence of August 13, 1972 was carried out. Continuous spectrum due to Thomson scattering of solar radiation on free electrons and the Balmer precontinuum stipulated by free bounded transitions in the volumes with different electron concentration ne (Kurochka, Kiryukhina, 1989) were observed in the spectrum of this prominence. Heir intensities can be explained only by assuming that there are volumes with different values of electron concentration ( 1010 ne 1012 cm-3) and extension in the prominence ( 105 109 ). In addition, there are extended volumes ( with ℓ of the order of the active region size and even larger) with relatively low temperature( Te < 104 K) and electron concentration intermediate between the concentration in the prominence and that of the corona( 109 ⩽ ne ⩽ 1010 cm -3 ). Title: Radiation from solar flares in the X-ray and optical ranges of the spectrum. Authors: Kurt, V. G.; Kurochka, L. N.; Zenchenko, V. M. Bibcode: 1989CosRe..27..358K Altcode: Measurements of hard X-ray radiation, Xh, from 180 solar flares, carried out on board the spacecraft Venera-13, -14, were compared with measurements of optical and thermal X-ray radiation, XT. The total quantity of energy release during the burst in these bands was calculated, and a correlation analysis was conducted. The resulting correlation relationships give evidence that the total energy of the fast electrons responsible for the Xh-burst in the impulsive phase of the flare is related to the thermal energy at the end of the impulsive phase in a practically functional way. The quantitative relationship was determined between the importances of the flares in the Hα line and the most probable values of the energy content in the various bands of radiation, by means of computations grounded within the generally accepted models. It is evident that the total energy of the optical (cool) part of the flare, the energy of the radiation in the X-ray band, and the energy introduced into the flaring volume by energetic particles are comparable with one another. Title: Investigations of solar flares in the X-ray and optical spectral regions. Authors: Kurt, Viktoriia; Kurochka, L. N.; Zenchenko, V. M. Bibcode: 1989KosIs..27..425K Altcode: 1989CosRe..27..425K Measurements of hard X-ray emission from 180 solar flares, as obtained on the Venera 13 and 14 probes, are compared with measurements of optical and thermal X-ray emissions. Values of the total energy release during a flare are calculated in these ranges, and a correlation analysis is carried out. The correlations found indicate that the total energy of fast electrons causing hard X-ray bursts in the impulsive flare phase and the thermal energy at the end of the impulsive phase have practically a functional relationship. Title: Flare processes in a quiet prominence Authors: Kurochka, L. N.; Kiryukhina, A. I. Bibcode: 1989PAZh...15...82K Altcode: A novel method is proposed for determining the limits of electron concentration variations in a plasma along the line of sight from the precontinuum of the Balmer series. The characteristic value of n(e) for volumes responsible for hydrogen line emission is about 5 x 10 to the 10th/cu cm. It is concluded that, at small volumes of a quiet prominence, a powerful flarelike energy release takes place which manifests itself in a Balmer precontinuum.

G.; Palus, P. Bibcode: 1987KFNT....3...46K Altcode: Radiation energies of 5508 flares observed in 1978 are estimated. The radiation in all lines and in continua of hydrogen series (beginning with Lyman) with typical parameters of the flares of different intensities is taken into consideration. Mean energy values are obtained for flares of every importance which increase with importance, whereas the number of the flares observed decreases. With the flare energy decrease their number increases at first up to 5×1020J and then fastly decreases. This suggests that the flares on the Sun are independent events among other non-stationary processes. Title: Energy Distribution of 15000 Solar Flares Authors: Kurochka, L. N. Bibcode: 1987SvA....31..231K Altcode: No abstract at ADS Title: Energy distribution of 15, 000 solar flares Authors: Kurochka, L. N. Bibcode: 1987AZh....64..443K Altcode: An estimation of the radiation energy of 15 thousand flares observed during the period of 1978 - 1979 is made and an analysis is performed of their energy distribution. An equation is suggested for the energetic flare index which is characteristic of the flare energy release. Arguments are presented in favour of the idea that solar flares are an independent class of events on the sun. It is shown that the distributions of flares over energy both on the sun and on the UV Cet-type stars can be expressed by power dependences and have the same exponent.

Bibcode: 1987BSolD1987...48Z Altcode: An instrument is briefly described which measures hard X-ray radiation with an energy Ex > 50 keV from solar flares. The measurements were made on board the Venera 13, 14 spacecraft. These flares were used as a basis for a catalog where the total energy flux in the optical Eopt and hard X-ray EHx ranges of solar flares is compared. The procedure of EHx and Eopt calculations is described. Title: Magnetic field inhomogeneity in the solar flare of 25. VII. 1981. Authors: Lozitskij, V. G.; Lozitskaya, N. I.; Kurochka, L. N.

G.; Kurochka, L. N.; Lozitskaia, N. I. Bibcode: 1986AZh....63..814L Altcode: It is found that the magnetic field gradient in the flare of July 25, 1981 changed its sign with depth not less than 2-3 times. This result was obtained during the investigation of the flare's Zeeman spectrogram which involved the use of magnetosensitive lines located in the far wings of the H-beta line. It is suggested that the oscillating tail left behind by an MHD-soliton propagating in the flare is responsible for this marked sign change.

The expression is derived for the case of line broadening by the Stark effect (ions + electrons) and the Doppler effect when the observations are made in the presence of background radiation that reduces the line contrast.

Bibcode: 1977AAfz...33...41K Altcode: A formula is obtained for calculating the line profiles of inhomogeneous solar structures with their porous structure taken into account. The formula is valid for chaotic macroscopic motions in inhomogeneous emission objects. It is assumed that the emission centers are homogeneous and the macroscopic motion of the objects is precisely the motion of individual emission elements of fine structure. The formula takes into account the mutual screening of elements. Simplifications of the formula are available when macroscopic motions are absent and mutual screening is small. Tabulated values of a particular function are provided, needed for the case of Maxwellian distribution of macroscopic velocities of emission elements and constant source function along the line of sight within each element.

Bibcode: 1976SvA....19..590K Altcode: It is shown that upper-level populations of hydrogen atoms in solar flares are distributed according to the statistical weights of the levels and that optical thickness in the high Balmer lines is significantly less than unity. Calculations indicate that due to these two conditions, the intensities of the high Balmer lines should fall rapidly with number, which also leads to the small number of observed lines in flares on the disk. The second-level population of hydrogen atoms is estimated together with the extent of emission in flares. Title: Contours of Emission Lines of Inhomogeneous Solar Formations Authors: Kurochka, L.

Bibcode: 1976BAICz..27..346K Altcode: It is shown that chromospheric flares and prominences are essentially inhomogeneous and that the theoretical line profiles of these phenomena have to be calculated taking this inhomogeneity into account. In this case, the observed line profiles are in accordance with the theoretical ones. Theoretical half-width curves of the line profiles of inhomogeneous emission formations have been calculated for different relative values of turbulent velocities in order to determine the optical thicknesses.

Bibcode: 1975BAICz..26...23K Altcode: The energy radiated by flares of various classes in the Lyman, Balmer, Paschen, and Brackett series are calculated for different optical thicknesses of the flares. It is shown that the amount of energy radiated in all the hydrogen lines is 4 to 5 times greater than that radiated only in H-alpha. Statistical reduction of the observational data yields the characteristic areas for flares of various classes, the relative H-alpha line widths, the derived Doppler widths at the maximum, lifetimes, and the relative number of flares of each class on the sun. The characteristic time variations of the basic flare parameters are determined, and an estimate is made of the total energy radiated by flares of various classes. The total energy radiated by flares of a particular class is shown to be approximately the same. Title: Estimate of inhomogeneities of objects in calculating the emission line profiles.

Bibcode: 1970SoPh...11...33K Altcode: The paper shows that the dependence of the number of the extreme resolved line on the electron density obtained for the Balmer series (Kurochka, 1967) considering the broadening action of the electrons, remains true for the Lyman and Paschen series as well. For these series a formula which gives the dependence of the number of the extreme resolved line on the velocity of hydrogen atoms when the lines are broadened by the Doppler effect, has been derived.
