About the paper

Abstract

Results are given for observations of three active areas NOAA 11140, 11141 and 11142, executed during the partial solar eclipse in January 4, 2011 from geographically spaced points on "Svetloe" near to St. Petersburg and "Zelenchuksky", in the North Caucasus. Methodically advantages of such observations consist in expected increase in accuracy of coordinate measurements (for case of a favorable arrangement of active area on the solar disk). Use completely steerable paraboloids of radio telescopes RT-32 of a network "Quasar-KVO" with a field of view, limiting the contribution of the quiet Sun, has led to increase of sensitivity and the effective discrimination of eclipsing observations. The eclipsing curves are presented in R and L channels on waves 3.5, 6.2 and 13 cm for the moments of I and IV contacts of occultation and the moments of a covering and opening of active areas (in all 14 curve pairs). The results of a primary treatment are presented also. The thin structure of radio images is revealed and the identification of separate details is made.
