Abstract
Brightness temperature fluctuations induced by a shock wave transit through the solar transition region are computed at several decimetric wavelengths. A simplified method previously used to reproduce the observed UV line intensity fluctuations is shown to give oscillation amplitudes which are consistent with experimental results. The detectability of shock-induced radio fluctuations is briefly discussed, to check the possibility of a common origin for the observed UV and radio phenomena.
