Full textConvection is the chief mode of heat transport in the outer envelopes of cool stars such as the Sun. Convective effects are recognizable in large-scale features, such as the global differential rotation and meridional circulation flows, as well as smaller scale phenomena such as granulation, mesogranulation, and supergranulation. Moreover, convective flows widely determine the evolution and organization of tiny magnetic elements observed in the solar surface responsible for small scale irradiance solar variations. Our understanding of the solar convection derives from numerical simulations of compressible convection (MHD approach) and from spectral observations of the solar surface (velocity and center line maps, helioseismological data, etc.). In this work we face the problem of connection between solar magnetic fields and photospheric dynamics through an experimental approach. In particular we worked on acquisitions systems for solar imaging spectroscopy, on a pipeline for the spectroscopic data reduction and on the data analysis. One of the basic tools of observational solar physics is spectroscopy, which allows us to derive information on several physical parameters of solar atmosphere such as velocity, temperature, magnetic field strength etc. Spectroscopic analysis allows us to determine the vertical velocity of solar surface structures. Moreover, as wavelength can be somehow associated to depth in the solar atmosphere, it is possible to transform a bidimensional image in a 3-D field. In order to study solar atmosphere dynamics, observations of adequate spectral purity, together with high spatial resolution to resolve small-scale structures are necessary. Moreover, the rapid evolution of observed solar features requires monochromators with high transparency to acquire multiple-line spectra in a comparatively short time. In order to meet all these requirements, suitable instruments and techniques have to be used. An instrument which satisfies all these constraints is IBIS, an Interferometric Bidimensional Spectrometer, installed at the Dunn Solar Telescope/NSO (Sac Peak, USA). IBIS produces data with high spectral (Dl/l~200000), spatial (0.2’’ at DST telescope) and temporal resolution (exposure time 10 ms; acquisition rate 5 frames s-1). Images acquired with IBIS are currently recorded by a CCD camera. Chapter 1 introduces the reader to the solar spectroscopy and to the use of spectroscopic imaging to retrieve information on solar photospheric layers dynamics. The basic concept and the layout of the IBIS spectrograph, used in this thesis to acquire spectroscopic images, is described. Chapter 2 reports laboratory measurements and calibrations, derived through the application of the Photon Transfer Technique, of two sensors: the SI-1920 HD CMOS sensor and the Andor DV885 EMCCD sensor. Our interest in these sensors is related to the necessity to replace the CCD camera, now installed on the IBIS spectral channel. Improvements in the IBIS camera system concern an increased sensitivity/quantum efficiency, a decreased detector readout time, a larger array size and an increased full well/programmable detector gain. Chapter 3 describes the various steps of the pipeline developed for the IBIS data reduction. The pipeline includes both the standard image processing and a high performance IDL software package written specifically for high resolution solar images. In Chapter 4 we report some results related to the study of the emergence and the organization of the magnetic field on the solar surface both as isolated structures and as clusters. More in detail, typical isolated magnetic features are pores or sunspots. We investigated the small scale dynamics of a strong magnetic field region (pore) with a light bridge inside it, observed with the IBIS spectrometer. An analysis of the intensity and velocity maps revealed the presence, inside the light bridge, of elongated structures showing a kind of reversal in intensity and velocity. More in detail, in the intensity images we observed a narrow central dark lane running along the axis of the light bridge, that we explain proposing an analytical model. Regarding the velocity structure, its topology resembles a convective roll and may indicate a modification of the photospheric convective flows. By adopting the IBIS dataset, we studied the oscillatory properties of the solar atmosphere, in the photosphere and the chromosphere, with particular regard to the influence of the magnetic topology. In particular, we analyzed the propagation of waves in the atmosphere in correspondence of a pore, of a magnetic network area and of a quiet Sun region. Studying the generation and propagation of waves in the solar atmosphere provides information about the atmospheric structure and dynamics and it helps to identify the key mechanism of chromospheric and coronal heating. Finally, by using large FoV MDI magnetograms we analyzed the spatial distribution of reticular clusters of magnetic features, such as the magnetic network. For this purpose, we developed a numerical algorithm able to detect voids between magnetic fragments. We computed Void Probability Functions which describe, in a uniform and objective way, the assessment of the void structure of different magnetic elements distributions.

Full textA brief summary of the important new findings is given below: • The data adaptive filtering technique singular spectrum analysis identifies and extracts trend and period modes of around 27-day, 13-day and 9-day in various solar wind and geomagnetic parameters. The response of the magnetosphere to the solar wind forcing is found to be the most prominent during the declining phases of the solar cycles. However, oscillations of these modes have considerable amplitudes during the entire sunspot cycle.Multi-frequency structures in substorm associated magnetic fluctuations are extracted by the SSA. The study throws light on several features of various modes thus detected, for example, poleward propagation of modes at high latitudes, dip equatorial enhancement. • Geomagnetic substorms, which may have considerably high magnetic disturbance (up to ∼-500 nT) at stations poleward of standard auroral oval, are occasionally missed out in the standard AE indices. However, their low latitude signatures like positive bays, Pi2 bursts are often evident. Signature and strength of such substorms have significant asymmetry in the opposite hemispheres. • This study clearly brings out 24-hour periodicity in the ring current asymmetry during magnetic storms. The asymmetry is observed maximum near dusk hours, whereas it is minimum near dawn hours. This periodicity is attributed to changing local time due to rotation of the Earth. For the first time, we also report clear westward and eastward propagating modes around the globe using ground-based magnetic data. These propagation characteristics are associated with the westward and eastward drifts of energetic ions and electrons, respectively in the ring current region. • This thesis reports various new aspects of substorm associated auroral and low latitude indices. (1) The AU index (supposedly positive), which is expected to represent the maximum intensity of the eastward electrojet during a substorm, turns negative under the conditions when entire auroral oval is dominated by westward electrojet. Such negative AU values result in underestimation of strength of substorm in the AE index (AE = AU − AL). Our study supports the finding of Kamide and Ros toker [2004] that use of AE index should be avoided for identification of a substorm.Rather AL index gives better representation of substorms. (2) Intense and prolonged solar flares generate asymmetric magnetic field at low latitudes. This asymmetry significantly alters non-substorm and substorm time ASY indices. (3) Low latitude ASY indices, often used in relation to substorm activities, are affected by prompt penetration of interplanetary electric field to lower latitudes.

The first magnetic fields in the solar system were embedded in the ionized gas of the protoplanetary disk itself. Soon after, newly formed protoplanets may have harbored magnetic core dynamos. Paleomagnetic analysis of ancient samples permits direct constraints on these early solar system magnetic fields. Here I present paleomagnetic studies of several classes of meteorites. Experiments on inclusions of chondritic meteorites have led to some of the first constraints on the intensities of protoplanetary disk magnetic fields. Meanwhile, measurements of eucrites, a class of achondrites believed to originate from the asteroid Vesta, suggest that Vesta once hosted a magnetic core dynamo. New techniques developed during the course of these measurements permit ongoing and future investigations of the remanent magnetizations of new meteorites and terrestrial rocks. In support of the paleomagnetic results, I present analytical and numerical modeling of magnetic dust grain dynamics in the solar nebula and of the interior dynamics of differentiated asteroids capable of hosting magnetic dynamos.
