  • Installation of solar chromospheric telescope at the Indian Astronomical Observatory, Merak 
    Ravindra, B; Prabhu, K; Thulasidharen, K. C; Rajalingam, M; Sagayanathan, K; Kamath, P. U; Dorjey, N; Angchuk, D; Kemkar, P. M. M; Dorjai, T; Banyal, R. K (Indian Academy of Sciences, 2018-10)
    We report the observations of the solar chromosphere from a newly commissioned solar telescope at the incursion site near Pangong Tso lake in Merak (Leh/Ladakh). This new Hα telescope at the Merak site is identical to the ...
  • Measurement of astronomical seeing using long exposure solar images 
    Sridharan, R; Ravindra, B; Prabhu, K (Springer, 2019-01)
    We extend our modified parameter search method (Sridharan, Dashora, and Venkatakrishnan, Solar Phys.222, 35, 2004) of estimating the Fried parameter (r0) from long exposure images to the images obtained from the Hα-telescope ...
  • New evidence for spatio-temporal fragmentation in the solar flare energy release 
    Ramesh, R; Mugundhan, V; Prabhu, K (IOP Publishing, 2020-01-20)
    We analyzed a group of type III radio bursts and a Hα flare from the Sun that were observed simultaneously on 2015 January 14. The radio observations were in the spectral mode over the frequency range 85–35 MHz, and ...
  • Recurring coronal holes and their rotation rates during the solar cycles 22-24 
    Prabhu, K; Ravindra, B; Hegde, M; Doddamani, V. H (Springer, 2018-05)
    Coronal holes (CHs) play a significant role in making the Earth geo-magnetically active during the declining and minimum phases of the solar cycle. In this study, we analysed the evolutionary characteristics of the Recurring ...
  • Seeing measurements with the Merak Hα Telescope 
    Vishnu, Unni. C; Sridharan, R; Ravindra, B; Prabhu, K (Springer, 2021-04)
    The parameter-search method (PSM) established by Rengaswamy, Ravindra, and Prabhu (Solar Phys.294, 5, 2019) for measuring the terrestrial atmospheric seeing from long-exposure solar Hα images is further validated - through ...
  • Solar G-band observations at Merak, Leh/Ladakh 
    Vasantharaju, N; Dorjey, N; Ravindra, B; Prabhu, K; Rangarajan, K. E; Prabhu Ramkumar, B; Sankarasubramanian, K (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, 2012)
    G-band observations are important for the study of dynamics of magnetic features in the solar photosphere and they are carried out using large telescopes, larger than 30 cm. We installed a 40 cm DFM telescope at one of ...
  • Transit of Venus on 2012 June 06: stray light estimation and restoration of Ca-K images of Twin Telescope from Kodaikanal Observatory 
    Prabhu, K; Rangarajan, K. E; Ravindra, B; Sankarasubramanian, K; Selvendran, R; Kumaravel, P (Astronomical Society of India, 2013-09)
    Observations of the transit of Venus were made from the Kodaikanal Observatory on 2012 June 06 in Ca-K wavelengths. Only half of the event was visible from India. We utilized this unique opportunity to compute the contribution ...
