Abstract

It is shown that for burst bandwidth B considered in the time-frequency domain, the distribution of w(B −1) is the probability density of radiation of radio emission of a given relative frequency bandwidth, while the distribution w(B) is the density of bursts, arrangement on axis B. Using this remark, we find that solar decimetric spikes and type III bursts, and metric noise storms, have a `radiation probability' approximately 10 times higher for large-bandwidth bursts than for small-bandwidth bursts.
