Abstract
A spectral-spatial analysis is made in the region of temperature minimum of the Sun's atmosphere. Filtergrams in the Baii 4554 + 0.05 Å line have been used. The wavelengths corresponding to the sequence of peaks on the spectrum are in close agreement with those theoretically calculated by Ulrich and Rhodes (1977) for five-minute oscillations. We thus have good cause to surmize that the observed oscillations in the region of temperature minimum pertain to the p-mode class of general oscillations of the Sun, the main fraction of their energy falling on the period of 300 s.
