SGK Dissertation

I have decided to make the tables in Appendices A, B and C of my dissertation available on the Web, including an expanded version of Appendix C.

These Appendices list frequency splittings and mode frequencies, FWHM and total power, determined from 20 days of full disk dopplergrams acquired during the summer of 1988, at the Mount Wilson 60-Foot Solar Tower.

Mt Wilson 60' Solar Tower, 1st - 20th July 1988 results

Appendix A: Frequency Splittings

(see also chapter 4 of SGK's dissertation)

A.1 Tesseral Values from the High-Resolution Spectra

This table lists the Legendre polynomials fitting coefficients resulting from the frequency splitting analysis of the high resolution tesseral spectra. The coefficients are listed in nHz, sideral, with the respective 3-sigma uncertainties estimated from the scatter to the fit.

A.2 Sectoral Results from the Low-Resolution Spectra

This table lists the scaled frequency splittings $\Delta\nu/2\ell$, binned in 10-$\ell$ wide bins, estimated from the sectoral high-resolution spectra. The uncertainties were estimated from the scatter in the bins. The values are listed in nHz, sideral.

Appendix B: Modal Frequencies, Widths and Amplitudes Estimated from the High-Resolution Spectra

The following table lists the modal frequency, width and total power estimated from the high-resolution collapsed spectra. The modal widths have been corrected for the finite window function resolution using the Gaussian appoximation. No width is listed for modes sensitive to the spatio-temporal sidelobe contamination, and note also that in these cases, the total power is most likely contaminated by an overestimate of the mode's width. The frequencies ($\nu$), FWHM, and their 1-sigma uncertainties are listed in \uHz. The modal total power ($P_{tot}$) corresponds to the square of the average surface velocity, in (m/s)$^2$.
(see also section 5.1 of SGK's dissertation)

Appendix C: Frequencies, Widths and Amplitudes Estimated from the Low-Resolution Spectra

This table lists the modal frequency, width and total power estimated from the low-resolution collapsed spectra, for a selection of modes, namely for $\ell= 35, 600$. Note that no averaging, binning or fitting was performed on the data, these are individual modal values. Only ``valid'' widths are listed, see discussion in Chapter 5. The frequencies ($\nu)$, FWHM, and their 1-sigma uncertainties are listed in \uHz. The modal total power ($P_{tot}$) corresponds to the square of the average surface velocity, in (m/s)$^2$.
The expanded table lists the values for every $\ell$ value, rather than every 10th $\ell$.
