Figure 1:
A TRACE 1600 Å image of the sunspot and surrounding region
(taken at 21:14 UT on 18 March 1999) with the position of the SUMER slit
and TRACE white light contours over-plotted (left panel) out-lining the
umbra and penumbra. The central panel
and the right panel are the intensity variations along the SUMER slit as
seen in N IV 765 Å (at 21:01 UT) and Si IV 1402.77 Å (at 20:13 UT) respectively. The

Figure 2: The SUMER sunspot plume spectrum SS1 (solid line) obtained on 18 March 1999 with the quiet sun QS2 (dotted line) spectrum over-plotted showing the six lines from within the O V 760 Å multiplet. Note that for presentation purposes the QS2 spectrum was multiplied by a factor of three, also note the line-shift to the red in the sunspot data. |
