Three classes of type III fine structures observed in interplanetary space.

Type of fine structure Date Time Bandwidth (kHz) Duration (seconds) Comment
IP Type IIIb bursts (Figs. 2 and 3) 19/09/2011 06:45, 11:10 60–90 240–600 Most commonly observed type III fine structures in IP space.

21/11/2011 13:30, 15:00, 16:00 70–100 300–600 Morphological characteristics are somewhat similar to decameter type IIIb.

22/11/2011 18:10, 19:00, 20:00 70–100 240–600 Exhibit clear structuring and are well separated.

23/11/2011 10:00, 11:00 120–200 180–660

11/12/2011 20:00 60–90 150–450

27/09/2012 23:25, 23:25 70–90 240–600

Triangular striae burst (Fig. 8) 12/11/2010 07:55 90–120 30–300 Rarest type III fine structures. Can also be observed in the higher hectometer wavelengths.

Irregular type IIIb burst (Fig. 11) 12/11/2010 13:45 90–120 60–300 Observed mostly in higher

31/07/2011 19:00 50–90 120–160 hectometer wavelengths.

11/08/2011 10:35 30–80 30–120 Have no clear structuring and

22/11/2011 01:20 60–100 120–300 can occur in irregular

30/11/2011 07:50 80–110 60–150 intervals.

Notes. The figures showing examples of the studied classes of bursts are also given in the table.
