1
holography of solar dynamics Doug Braun CoRA/NWRA
2
Braun LoHCo Feb 20042 long term goals nature & depth of supergranulation meridional circulation and its variation with time other large-scale flows and correlation with activity flows, travel-time perturbations in tachocline acoustic properties of solar poles
3
Braun LoHCo Feb 20043 progress report developing software for routine “full- disk” Doppler-sensitive holography analysis of CR 1988 for LoHCo –MDI and GONG comparisons comparisons with ring-diagram results systematic effects, artifacts
4
Braun LoHCo Feb 20044 lateral-vantage holography egression, ingression: correlation:
5
Braun LoHCo Feb 20045 Doppler diagnostics 4 egressions and 4 ingressions: 4 correlations: WE N S
6
Braun LoHCo Feb 20046 should invert correlation differences for flows are proportional to “flows” (really some weighted depth-average) For now, assume correlation phases differences
7
Braun LoHCo Feb 20047 full-disk phase-difference signatures

9 analysis to date MDI –CR1988; 8 “days” (2002 Mar 30-Apr 7) –CR1948; 1 “day” (1999 Apr 20) GONG –CR1988; 2 “days” (2002 Mar 30-31)

18
Braun LoHCo Feb 200418 intermediate scale flows MDI & GONG – focus depth=3-30Mm(MDI), 7-30 (GONG) – 5° spatial averaging limb artifacts, MDI/GONG comparisons horizontal divergence vertical vorticity
