- Abstract:
H-alpha spectroheliograms are generally taken with telescopes equipped
with a half-angstrom bandwidth Halle filter. These H-alpha
observations consist of solar patrols (routine monitoring) of the
whole disk or selected regions of the sun. Faculae, prominences and
filaments and other bright and dark areas are features visible in this
wavelength. Flares, disappearing filaments, surges on the disk, and
eruptive prominences are some of the phenomena studied with these
data. The data center archives mostly photographs 35-mm film data
from 18 stations are sending their H-alpha patrol film to the data
center.
H-alpha solar flares are available in cooperation with the Department
d'Astronomie Solaire et Planetaire, Observatoire de Paris. These are
published as part of the Solar-Geophysical Data Reports (SGD) and are
available since 1980 from:
http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/stp/SOLAR/ftpsolarflares.html
Solar H-alpha flare index data is available from the University
Kandilli Observatory, Istanbul, Turkey since 1976. These are also
available from:
http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/stp/SOLAR/ftpsolarflares.html
Non-flare H-alpha observations are published in the Solar_Geophysical
Data (SGD) Reports going back to 1955. See:
http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/stp/SOLAR/sgdintro.html.
Solar data can also be obtained through the Space Physics Interactive
Data Resource (SPIDR): http://spidr.ngdc.noaa.gov/spidr/index.html
