Magnetic Fields at Mt. Wilson and MDI
2
The 150-foot Tower Spectrograph Measures 12 line pairs simultaneously The long-term program uses 5250. The full coverage of 6768 allows modeling of MDI. The Na D2 line permits interesting studies of height dependence.
3
The Fluxtube Magnetic Structure Complicates Interpretation This diagram shows the relationship between the magnetic structure and our points of observation.
4
Comparison between MWO and MDI We interpolate and bin the MDI magnetogram to match the temporal/spatial location of MWO pixels. This is MWO as seen by MDI. We reconstruct the 6768 line profile and apply model MDI filters to it to find a MWO-modeled field. This is MDI as seen by MWO.
5
Temporal trends near disk center Approximately 1200 MWO/MDI intercomparisons have been constructed to yield a scale factor between MDI and MWO. These two are for near disk center areas.
6
Temporal trends near the limb. The outer sections of the solar image have been divided into quadrants. The scatter is much larger here and there are fewer points per image.
7
Magnetic geometries are not all vertical. The potential field solutions used in the Wang-Sheeley model assume the field geometry is vertical at the photosphere. This is demonstrably an inaccurate assumption.
8
