Stereoscopic Observations of Solar Radio Emissions by the S/WavesInstrument onboard the STEREO Spacecraft
 Krupař, Vratislav ; Santolík, Ondřej (advisor) ; Krucker, Samuel (referee) ; Wimmer-Schweingruber, Robert F. (referee)
This PhD thesis is primarily dedicated to a study of type III radio bursts observed by the S/Waves instrument onboard Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory (STEREO). These emissions are produced by beams of suprathermal electrons escaping the corona along open magnetic field lines during increased solar activity. As fast electrons propagate in the interplanetary (IP) medium, Langmuir waves are generated at the local electron plasma frequency fpe by a bump-on-tail instability and can be afterwards converted by a non-linear process into radio emissions at fpe and/or 2fpe: type III radio bursts. We have developed a goniopolarimetric (GP, also referred to as direction-finding) inversion using the Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) technique for electric measurements on three non-orthogonal antennas. It allows us to retrieve both wave vector directions and polarization properties of incident waves. We have also investigated the influence of extended sources (as a typical feature of type III radio bursts) on measured spectral matrices. We have found an empirical relation between apparent source sizes and spectral matrices decomposed by SVD. Abovementioned techniques have been extensively tested on data obtained by the High Frequency Receiver (HFR, a part of S/Waves). We have performed statistical analysis of a...
