Extreme-Ultraviolet Sunspot Plumes Observed with SOHO
1998
Bright EUV sunspot plumes have been observed in five out of nine sunspot regions with the Coronal Diagnostic Spectrometer on the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory. In the other four regions, the brightest line emissions may appear inside the sunspot but are mainly concentrated in small regions outside the sunspot areas. These results are in contrast to those obtained during the Solar Maximum Mission but are compatible with the Skylab mission results. The present observations show that sunspot plumes are formed in the upper part of the transition region, occur in both magnetic unipolar and bipolar regions, and may extend from the umbra into the penumbra.
