Solar Flux Atlases: The new HARPS-N Quiet Sun Benchmark and Ca II H & K Lines Continuum Normalisation
F. Hanassi-Savari, A. G. M. Pietrow, M. K. Druett +2
Context. Solar flux atlases observe the spatially integrated light from the Sun, treating it as a star. They are fundamental tools for gaining insight into the composition of the S…
Observing the integrated and spatially resolved Sun with ultra-high spectral resolution
S. Schäfer, K. Royen, A. Huster Zapke +2
The Institute for Astrophysics Göttingen operates a solar observatory that combines a 50\,cm siderostat with (1) a vacuum vertical telescope, (2) a very high resolution Fourier Tr…
Convective characteristics of Fe I lines across the solar disc
M. Ellwarth, B. Ehmann, S. Schäfer +1
Solar convection is visible as a net blueshift of absorption lines, which becomes apparent when observing quiet Sun granulation. This blueshift exhibits variations from the disc ce…
The IAG spectral atlas of the spatially resolved Sun: Centre-to-limb observations
M. Ellwarth, S. Schäfer, A. Reiners +1
Solar surface magneto-convection appears as granulation pattern that impacts spectral lines in terms of both shape and wavelength. Such induced effects also tend to vary over the o…
Newly formed downflow lanes in exploding granules in the solar photosphere
M. Ellwarth, C. E. Fischer, N. Vitas +2
Exploding granules have drawn renewed interest because of their interaction with the magnetic field. Especially the newly forming downflow lanes developing in their centre seem to…
