Description: |
In the solar decimetric type IV radio event observed on 2001
June 13, we have found wavelet tadpole patterns for the first
time. They were detected simultaneously at all radio frequencies
in the 1.1-4.5 GHz frequency range. The characteristic period of
the wavelet tadpole patterns was found to be 70.9 s. The parameters
of the tadpoles on different frequencies are very similar and the
correlations between individual radio fluxes are high. These
tadpoles are interpreted as a signature of the magnetoacoustic
wave train moving along the flare loop through the radio source
and modulating its gyrosynchrotron emission. |
