Observations of F- and P-Mode Oscillations of High Degree (500 Is Less Than L Is Less Than 2500) in Quiet and Active Sun

Spectra (l - v diagrams) from high resolution observations taken at the Vacuum Tower Telescope (NSO/Sunspot) are presented. The raw data are CCD images taken through the SOUP narrowband filter in Fe I 5576 A. Four filtergrams spaced through the spectral line are combined to form velocity movies. Spectra for 80 min of data with 0.5 to 1.5 arcsec resolution are presented for the entire field-of-view and for quiet and magnetic (plage) subregions. Ridges f and p1 to p5 are evident in velocity spectra, extending to l = 2500 (f), l = 1800 (p1), and l = 1200 (p2). Much less power is seen in the magnetic region than in the quiet Sun. Three-dimensional Fourier filtering shows that oscillation velocity amplitude drops sharply at the boundary of the active region for each family of modes considered.
