Description
The Taiwan Oscillation Network (TON) is a ground-based network to
measure solar intensity oscillations to study the internal structure of
the Sun. K-line full-disk images of 1000 pixels diameter are taken at a
rate of one image per minute. Such data would provide information
onp-modes withl as high as 1000. The TON will consist of six identical
telescope systems at proper longitudes around the world. Three telescope
systems have been installed at Teide Observatory (Tenerife), Huairou
Solar Observing Station (near Beijing), and Big Bear Solar Observatory
(California). The telescopes at these three sites have been taking data
simultaneously since October of 1994. Anl v diagram derived from 512
images is included to show the quality of the data.
