KANZ (VSO notation)

This instrument produces H-alpha solar imagery from
Kanzelhoehe Solar Observatory (KSO), Austria. Its main purpose is a
high precision full disk imaging of the photosphere in order to derive
sunspot and faculae areas and positions as well. Other scientific
objectives are studies of the underlying photosphere before, during and
after chromospheric flares, hunting for the mystery white light flares
at the begin of a new solar cycle and providing a data set for
developing an automatic determination of sunspot relative numbers by
image segmentation techniques. The obtained time series will also
continue the support of the Debrecen Photoheliographic Data by daily
synoptic images. The Kanzelhoehe Photosphere Telescope (KPT) is based
on the Kanzelhöhe Photoheliograph (PhoKa) which went into operation in
1989 and was described in detail in Pettauer, T.: 1990, in L. Deszö (ed.),
The Dynamic Sun, Publ. Debrecen Heliophysical Observatory, Debrecen,
p. 62(1990). See http://www.kso.ac.at/instrumente/kpt/kpt_en.php

本设备由奥地利卡兹尔霍赫太阳观测站（KSO）提供，可生成 H-alpha 太阳影像。其核心功能在于对光球层进行高精度全盘成像，进而推算出太阳黑子和光斑的面积及其位置。此外，其科学目标还包括对色球爆发前、爆发期间及爆发后的光球层进行深入研究，寻找新太阳周期开始时的神秘白光爆发，并为利用图像分割技术自动确定太阳黑子相对数量的数据集开发提供支持。所获得的时间序列数据还将持续为德布勒森光球摄影数据提供每日的天气图支持。卡兹尔霍赫光球望远镜（KPT）基于1989年投入使用的卡兹尔霍赫光球仪（PhoKa），该仪器在Pettauer, T.（1990）的著作《动态太阳》中有详细描述，收录于L. Deszö（编），德布勒森天文台出版的《动态太阳》一书中，第62页。欲获取更多详细信息，请访问http://www.kso.ac.at/instrumente/kpt/kpt_en.php。
