Spectral cleaving in solar type II radio bursts: Observations and interpretation by A. Koval et al.
Solar eruptive events, such as flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs), can generate shock waves that propagate through the solar corona. These shock waves accelerate electrons, leading to Langmuir waves that are then converted into radio emission of type II solar bursts, which are radio signatures of these shocks. On solar spectrograms, type II bursts are typically characterized by fundamental and harmonic lanes drifting from high to low frequencies within […]
