abstract = "Associated with magnetic fields between the chromosphere and the
corona, specifically in active regions, gyroresonance emission
plays an important role in revealing the magnetic dynamics in such
layers. This category of radio emission originates in the
acceleration of thermally distributed electrons that spiral
magnetic field lines. Then, given the magnetic association of this
radiation, this work hypothesized the possible relationship of the
gyroresonance mechanism with brightness bumps at radio
frequencies. Such hypothesis was based on the control played by
the magnetic field on the radio emission when such field reaches
conditions conducive to gyroresonant radiation at given frequency
and harmonic. To test such a hypothesis, we selected and observed
8 active regions from the ascending phase of the 24th solar cycle.
In this analysis, the data for these regions were HMI magnetograms
from the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) and images at 17 GHz
from the Nobeyama Radioheliograph (NoRH). Although these
magnetograms map only photospheric magnetic fields, they are
useful for indicating where the intensity of these fields
approaches values associated with the gyroresonant mechanism for a
given frequency and harmonic of the radio emission. For each
active region, then, we compiled both the SDO and NoRH maps of the
same time and analyzed its magnetic field and brightness
temperature. We then observed that the magnetic field conducive to
the gyroresonance mechanism was partially or completely enveloped
by the brightness bumps at 17 GHz. Furthermore, we also observed
that most of these bumps had circular polarization modulus (jrCj)
above 30% and that the brightness temperature of the selected
active regions was strongly correlated with jrCj 30% while it was
weakly or moderately correlated with jrCj < 30%. The results of
this work therefore support the proposed hypothesis, which makes
brightness bumps at 17 GHz useful means of identifying
gyroresonance sources.",
