Plasma Ejections from a Light Bridge in a Sunspot Umbra
Abstract
We present conspicuous activities of plasma ejections along a light bridge of a stable and mature sunspot in NOAA 8971 on 2000 May 02. We found the ejections both in the H-alpha (104 K) images obtained with the Domeless Solar Telescope (DST) at Hida Observatory, and in the 171 A (Fe IX/X, ~106 K) images obtained with the Transition Region and Coronal Explorer (TRACE). Main characteristics of the ejections are as follows: (1)Ejections occur intermittently and recurrently, (2)The velocities and the timings of the 171 A-ejections are the same as those of H-alpha ejections, (3)The appearance of ejections are different from one another, i.e. the H-alpha ejections have jet-like appearance, while that of 171 A-ejections is like a loop.
