The Polarization of Metre-Wave Solar Emission
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 April 2016
Extract
Sources of the Type I storms are thought to lie on closed magnetic loop systems above bipolar sunspots. Usually one sunspot is stronger than the other in the bipolar magnetic structure, and accordingly only one radio source associated with the stronger sunspot is usually observed. Occasionally however a double radio source is observed in conjunction with the bipolar sunspots. In such a case the double radio source should be intrinsically bipolar, viz. the two components should emit opposite senses of circular polarization (in this paper we use the word polarity for simplicity).
