Numerical determination of the cutoff frequency in solar models
Context. In stratified atmospheres, acoustic waves can only propagate if their frequency is higher than the cutoff value. The determination of the cutoff...
Numerical Modeling of Magnetohydrodynamic Wave Propagation and Refraction in Sunspots
We present numerical simulations of magnetoacoustic wave propagation from the photosphere to the low chromosphere in a magnetic sunspot-like structure. A thick...
Numerical simulation of propagation of the MHD waves in sunspots
We present results of numerical 3D simulation of propagation of MHD waves in sunspots. We used two self consistent magnetohydrostatic background models of...
Numerical Simulations of Conversion to Alfvén Waves in Sunspots
We study the conversion of fast magnetoacoustic waves to Alfvén waves by means of 2.5D numerical simulations in a sunspot-like magnetic configuration. A fast...
Observan el calentamiento producido por ondas magnéticas en el Sol
Un equipo internacional en el que participan investigadores del Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) y la Universidad de La Laguna (ULL), observa cómo las...
Observation and interpretation of the asymmetric Stokes Q, U, and V line profiles in sunspots
We present a first approach to systematic characterization and interpretation of observed asymmetries of Stokes profiles as a function of spatial position...
Observation and Modeling of Anomalous CN Polarization Profiles Produced by the Molecular Paschen-Back Effect in Sunspots
We report novel spectropolarimetric observations of sunspots carried out with the Tenerife Infrared Polarimeter in a near-IR spectral region around 15410 Å...
Observations of the birth and fine structure of sunspot penumbrae
High resolution white-light pictures of sunspot penumbrae are presented. These include pictures showing details of their filamentary structure and some...
