Characteristics of the solar loops based on the seismology method

Solar loops are hot and magnetic structures that often have transverse displacements. In this research, we study the characteristics of three solar loops using the images observed in the radiation region with the Hinode/XRT telescope on 11 September 2017. Fluctuations of solar loops can be traced using two methods: image and spectral processing. In the first method, displacements and disturbances are measured in images, while in the second method, periodic patterns are searched in Doppler shifts by spectrometers. Our analysis method is based on image processing and solar loop seismology. In this method, the time slices can be prepared from the images and then analyzed using the wavelet method. The measurement results of time series for three loops with lengths of 113040, 79128, and 62800 km were obtained in the range of 3–18, 3–6, and 3–16 min, respectively. The phase velocity of these oscillations was calculated in the range of 209–1256, 438–879.2, and 130–697.7 km s⁻¹ for three loops, respectively. Also, Alfven speeds were determined as 150–1012, 316–708.8, and 94–562.5 km s⁻¹. The magnetic field related to these fluctuations was calculated by the seismological method with the approximation of the thin cylindrical model for the loops measuring 2.47–16.52, 3.6–11.56, and 1.1–9.18 Gauss. Our findings suggest that oscillating movements in the loops can be interpreted as Kink transverse oscillations.
