Microwave polarization inversion observed
Abstract
Observations of an inversion of solar-active-region microwave polarization are described as they occurred during the Coronal Magnetic Structures Observing Campaign. Data regarding the microwave frequencies, soft X-ray emissions, brightness temperatures, and column emissions are obtained with the observations. The data are employed in the potential-field extrapolation procedure by Sakurai (1982) to calculate the coronal magnetic-field vector, and the microwave polarization observations yield reasonable coronal densities and evidence of an inversion.
