One purpose is to examine whether the difference is related to evanescent waves. • Motivation • Data • Method • Results I3 & I0 LC &Ic LC & LW AIA • Summary ΦAB’ - ΦB’A :
Motivation • Compute acoustic phase shifts (travel-time differences) between multiple heights in quiet regions, along the same ray path but traveling in opposite directions. One purpose is to examine whether the difference is related to evanescent waves. • Investigate the orbital-velocity dependence of measured phase shifts. • Because center-to-limb measurements are also related to different line-formation heights, the main purpose of this work is to investigate whether multi-height is one cause of center-to-limb effect. • Motivation • Data • Method • Results I3 & I0 LC &Ic LC & LW AIA • Summary

Summary • Phase shifts from I3 and I0 are dominant by orbital velocity. Phase shifts from calibrated LC & Ic, and Doppler proxies at LC & LW, both have non-ignorable dependence on the orbital velocity. • Acoustic travel time (phase) between multiple heights is asymmetric with respect to directions. • ΦAB’ - ΦB’A for low frequencies are positive from line core & continuum intensity data, and negative from line core & line wing of Doppler proxy, AIA 1600Å & 1700Å data. It is unclear why is the sign different. • Waves of 6mHz don’t cut off, but always has a negative phase shifts. • Multiple formation heights will cause a phase shifts , which may be one cause center-to-limb effect. • Motivation • Data • Method • Results I3 & I0 LC &Ic LC & LW AIA • Summary
