Estimation of the Apparent Source Size of Solar Radio Emissions Using SVD: An Application to Type III Radio Bursts at Long Wavelengths Observed by STEREO and Wind
Krupař, Vratislav ; Santolík, Ondřej ; Cecconi, B. ; Maksimovic, M.
Type III radio bursts are intense solar radio emissions. They are frequently observed by the S/Waves instruments on-board the STEREO spacecraft. We describe a wave propagation analysis using the Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) which can be directly applied to spectral matrices measured by the High Frequency Receiver (HFR; a part of the S/Waves experiment). We have found an empirical relation between the decomposed spectral matrices and apparent source sizes for waves with a low degree of polarization. We present a joint observation of a type III radio burst by the STEREO and Wind spacecraft during small separation distances. We obtain consistent results for the apparent source size and k-vector direction using different analysis method for the measurements of the STEREO and Wind spacecraft. We demonstrate that SVD can be an effective tool for the wave analysis of radio emissions with very extended sources.
