Spectroheliographic Observations in Madrid (1912 – 1917) The Physics of Chromospheric Plasmas ASP Conference Series, Vol. 368, 2007 Petr Heinzel, Ivan Dorotoviˇc and Robert J. Rutten, eds. Spectroheliographic Observations in Madrid (1912 – 1917) J. M. Vaquero, M. C. Gallego, F. J. Acero and J. A. Garc´ıa Departamento de F´ısica, Universidad de Extremadura, Spain Abstract. We have compiled information and data on solar spectrohelio- graphic observations in Madrid during 1912–1917. We have created a database with information on 829 flocculi specifying heliographic position, dates of obser- vation, angular velocity, and typology. We analyze the reliability of the data by reconstructing the butterfly diagram, active longitudes, and flocculi typology. 1. Introduction The Madrid Astronomical Observatory was founded in the 18th century. Dur- ing the first years of the 20th century, this observatory made an active program of solar observations (sunspots, prominences, solar corona during eclipses, solar spectroscopy, etc.). In 1911, the observatory bought a spectroheliograph (As- carza 1912). The installation of this spectroheliograph was completed during the first months of 1912 (Ascarza & Tinoco 1915). In this work we provide some information about the spectroheliograph of the Observatory of Madrid, and aim to show the reliability of the data obtained from 1912 until 1917. Wwe have constructed a database of the flocculi observed in Madrid described in Section 2. In Section 3 some final comments are given. The spectrohelioscope of the Observatory of Madrid consisted of three fun- damental parts (Fig. 1). The first is a polar heliostate with two flat mirrors of 0.2 m diameter. The second is a lens of 0.25 m diameter and 6.8 m focal length. The third part is the spectrohelioscope, with two slits of 75 mm length, twin collimator and camera lenses of 0.1 m diameter and 2.18 m focal length, and a flint prism of 90 degrees and 20 cm height. The solar image has a diameter of 64 mm. A detailed description is given in Iniguez˜ & Ascarza (1911). At the end of 1910, the work on the installation of the spectroheliograph started. The pillars and the base to support and shelter the device were con- structed. At the beginning of 1911 the installation of the instrument was started. The first photographs were obtained in June 1911. Nevertheless, until Decem- ber 1911 the observations were not begun regularly. The largest problems of the installation were related to the convective currents that formed near the spectroheliograph mount and its surroundings. The observing program consisted of photography of the Sun in the calcium K line and of analyzing the flocculi appearing on the photographs by calculating their heliographic positions and analyzing their aspect. 17 18 Vaquero et al. Figure 1. The Madrid spectroheliograph installed in 1911. 2. Database We have created a database with information on 829 flocculi (heliographic po- sition, dates of observation, angular velocity, and typology) from the spectrohe- liographic observations in Madrid during the years 1912-1917. This database is available by request to the authors. 3. Results Figure 2 shows the butterfly diagram for the observed flocculi. During the years 1912 and 1913 one sees flocculi in very low latitudes, corresponding to solar cycle 15. In Fig. 2 flocculi appear also at high latitudes, getting down in latitude during the advance of solar cycle 16. Figure 3 shows a histogram of the number of flocculi with respect to their solar longitude. During 1912–1917 the maximum number of focculi occurred around longitude 180◦, the minimum around longitude 0◦. The observers in Madrid classified the flocculi according to condensation and intensity. For condensation they judged whether the flocculus was observed as a single, continuous, and compact surface or, on the contrary, whether the flocculus appeared fragmented, in several grouped areas, etc. With respect to condensation, they established the following categories: (cc) very condensed, (c) Spectroheliographic Observations in Madrid 19 Figure 2.

With regard to the inten- sity of the flocculi, the observers established the following categories: (f) strong intensity, (ff) very strong intensity, (d) weak, and (dd) very weak.

Flocculi with strong intensity and condensed are the most numerous. 4. Final Comments In this work, we have tried to recover the observations carried out with the spectrohelioscope of the Observatory of Madrid during the beginning of the 20th century. So far we have processed the information from March, 1912 up to March, 1917. However, we have original observations until the year 1920. These observations can be useful to compare with observations of other spec- troheliographs of this epoch and to fill gaps in the available time sequences of spectroheliographic observations during this decade.

  • The Argument of the Broken Pane', Suffragette Consumerism And
    1 TITLE PAGE ‘The Argument of the Broken Pane’, Suffragette Consumerism and Newspapers by Jane Chapman, Professor of Communications, Lincoln University School of Journalism, Campus Way, Lincoln LN6 7TS, tel. 01522 886963, email: [email protected] 2 Abstract Within the cutthroat world of newspapers advertising the newspapers of Britain’s Women’s Social and Political Union (WSPU) Votes for Women and The Suffragette managed to achieve a balance that has often proved to be an impossible challenge for social movement press – namely the maintenance of a highly political stance whilst simultaneously exploiting the market system with advertising and merchandising. When the militant papers advocated window smashing of West End stores in 1912 - 13, the companies who were the target still took advertisements. Why? What was the relationship between news values, militant violence, and advertising income? ‘Do-it-yourself’ journalism operated within a context of ethical consumerism and promotionally orientated militancy. This resulted in newspaper connections between politics, commerce and a distinct market profile, evident in the customization of advertising, retailer dialogue with militants, and longer-term loyalty – symptomatic of a wider trend towards newspaper commercialism during this period. Keywords: suffragettes, Votes for Women, The Suffragette, window smashing, advertisers, ethical consumerism, WSPU. Main text Advertisers ‘judge the character of the reader by the character of the periodical’ (George French, Advertising: the Social and Economic Problem, 1915) ‘The argument of the broken window pane is the most valuable argument in modern politics’ (Emmeline Pankhurst, Votes for Women, 23 Feb.1912). Introduction and contexts One of the great achievements of the many and various activist women’s groups in Britain was their ability – despite, or more likely because of the movement’s diversity – to maintain a high, if fluctuating, public profile for a sustained period in history.

  • The Buffalo Soldiers in Vermont, 1909–1913
    The Buffalo Soldiers in Vermont, 1909–1913 The arrival of the Tenth Cavalry sent Burlington into demographic shock. Almost overnight the small city acquired a substantial black community, a situation that clearly dismayed many residents. By David Work n July 1909, the Tenth United States Cavalry Regiment, one of four regular army black regiments collectively known as the Buffalo ISoldiers, arrived in Burlington, Vermont, to begin a four-year tour of duty at Fort Ethan Allen in neighboring Colchester. Their arrival alarmed the almost exclusively white population. Many people feared the presence of sizable numbers of African American soldiers in their community and a bitter debate ensued over whether the city should adopt Jim Crow facilities. For the next four years, the Tenth Cavalry would encounter similar reactions as it traveled throughout the north- east and as far south as Winchester, Virginia. Wherever they went, the black soldiers faced fear and suspicion and had to demonstrate good behavior to win the acceptance of the white population. Created in 1866, the Tenth Cavalry achieved its greatest fame in the late nineteenth century on the western frontier and then served with distinction during the Spanish-American War. In that conflict, the regi- ment charged up San Juan Hill with Theodore Roosevelt’s Rough Riders and won public renown as the “fighting Tenth Cavalry.” In the early twentieth century, the Tenth fought in the Philippine War, served in .....................

Alfred Harmsworth, Lord Northcliffe (1865-1922), acquired The Times newspaper in 1908. In adding the most influential and reliable voice of the British establishment and of Imperially- fostered globalisation to his growing portfolio of newspapers and magazines, Northcliffe aroused some opposition among those who feared that he would rely on his seemingly infallible ear for the popular note and lower the tone and weaken the authority of The Times. Northcliffe had long hoped to prise this trophy from the control of the Walters family, convinced of his ability to make more of the paper than they had, and from the beginning applied his singular energy and intuition to improving the fortunes of ‘The Thunderer’.

The sky was overcast and gray, low-hanging clouds threatened an autumn storm. The leafless trees along the shabby village street stretched their gaunt arms against the dull sky and mournfully swayed as the wind howled thru them with a melancholy, long- drawn wail. Along Skinner Street the dust and dead leaves whirled in eddying clouds. The whirling dust did not conceal from the curious villagers, who passed by, a fluttering lavender ribbon and a green wreath, hung on the door of Esau Hawkins' little one-story cottage. For sixty year this little cottage and its occupant had been objects of curiosity in the village, and the crepe hanging on the door did not lessen their interest.
