This placement near the innermost corona, together with the nearby Baily's beads, enabled the detection of emission lines from the photosphere, lower chromosphere, and corona in the same spectral frame. The higher field-of-view made the coronal line Fe XIV 5303Åmore visible, while the reduced intensity of photospheric and lower chromospheric light, caused by terrestrial scattering, also influenced the observed spectrum. Meanwhile, we selected 18 flash emission lines to measure the ratio of the relative line height of the flash emission line to the relative line depth of the corresponding solar absorption line. This ratio serves as a diagnostic of the source function, minimizing opacity effects. Comparison of disk and flash spectra shows that this ratio increases for spectral lines at greater formation heights, being strongest for chromospheric lines(particularly Fe II), moderate for photospheric low-FIP lines, and weakest for photospheric neutral lines. This trend suggests a rising source function with formation height, potentially linked to increasing electron temperatures or influenced by factors observed in flash spectra near active regions as reported in earlier studies.展开更多

文摘In this paper,new light curves(LCs) of contact eclipsing binary(CEB) systems LX Lyn and V0853 Aur are presented and analyzed by using the 2015 version of the Wilson-Devinney(W-D) code.In order to explain their asymmetric LCs,cool starspots on the components were employed.It is suggested that their fill-out degrees are f=12.0%(LX Lyn) and f=26.3%(V0853 Aur).At the same time,we found that LX Lyn is a W-type eclipsing binary(EB) with an orbital inclination of i=84°.88 and a mass ratio of q=2.31.V0853 Aur is also a W-type CEB with a mass ratio of q=2.77 and an orbital inclination of i= 79°.26.Based on all available times of light minimum,their orbital period changes are studied by using the O-C method.The O-C diagram of LX Lyn reveals a cyclic oscillation with a period of about 14.84 yr and an amplitude of 0.0019 days,which can be explained by the light-travel time effect(LTTE) due to the presence of a third body with a minimum mass of0.06M_⊙.For V0853 Aur,it is discovered that the O-C diagram of the system also shows a cyclic oscillation with a period of 9.64 yr and an amplitude of 0.03365 days.The cyclic oscillation of V0853 Aur can be attributed to the LTTE by means of a third body with a mass no less than 3.77M_⊙.The third body may play an important role in the formation and evolution of these systems.
