Extract

Type II solar bursts characteristically drift slowly from high to low frequencies at a rate of about 0.1 MHz/s, appear only at frequencies lower than 250 MHz, and frequently have harmonic structure, i.e. there are identifiable spectral features within the fundamental which are duplicated at twice the frequency. Thus it is clear that at least in some cases, true harmonic radiation is involved; the source region emits frequencies f and 2f simultaneously.
