The observed disk behavior seems consistent with off-limb observations of EUV waves showing two fronts which split at some point (e.g., Figure 12 and Section 11).

From a polar off-limb map of the event a p of ≈ 0.12 R(cid:12) was deduced from the intensity distribution of the wave at a height of 0.17 R(cid:12) ,which is similar to the emission (formation) heights of EUV waves discussed in Section 5.

If propagated in the unperturbed system with potential V0 (z ) (i.e. internal waves are turned off, V1 = 0), each propagated mode Ψn (z , r; k) accumulates only a phase, i.e. Ψn (z , r; k) = e−ikrEn ψn (z ; k), and the unitary matrix is diagonal.

Are like the fading depths beneath a sea,
While over waves of misty shadows we
Drift onward, hand in hand.
"Write to me what thy waves struggle to say."
The sea writes in foam again and again
and wipes off the lines in a boisterous despair.
A mile or so of sunlit waves off shore --
In a breezeless bay,
We listless lay --
Our boat a "dream of rest" on the still sea --
And -- we were four.
Good News may peal the glory of the state--
Good News may cause the courts of heaven to ring.
She sees a hand waved at a garden gate.
Like all I see—
Waves in the sun—the white-winged gleam—
Of sea-birds in the slanting beam—
And far-off sails which flit before the south-wind free.
The roofs repaired that stood beside the waves,
Some time had passed since all the dead were buried
And pinewood crosses placed upon their graves
