Radio interferometer signal at raying of the solar wind plasma by cosmic source radio emission

This work is devoted to investigations of solar corona and solar wind irregularities by the method of radio probing with using of radio interferometer. The analysis of the radio interferometric signal allows to get information about physical characteristics of propagation medium at reception of the noise emission from a natural radio source. We represent the theoretical calculation of power spectrum of interferometric response to radio source emission, past through the turbulent medium.

CONCLUSION In this work the theoretical calculation of spectral response of the interferometer to cosmic radio source emission passed through turbulent plasma of solar wind was performed. The analysis showed that at the weak phase disturbances the output interferometer signal carries information about spatial spectrum of fluctuations electron-density and solar wind velocity. Mathematical simulation of experiments on turbulent media sounding shows good agreement between real observations and theoretical calculations.
