Abstract:
Presentation of holographic signatures of seismic emission from large
solar flares. We have movies of helioseismic sources of three large
flares, including those of October 28 and 29, 2003. We have concurrent
movies of photospheric radiation from the GONG with 1-min cadence for
the October flares and Na-D1 spectroheliograms with 2.5-min cadence of
the October 29 flare. Seismic emission comes from hard X-ray footpoints
observed by RHESSI. The acoustic emission is a small fraction of the
total energy released by the flare. Given a clear understanding of the
physics, seismic emission from flares could be a useful diagnostic tool
for local helioseismology.
