  • 摘要:Aims.We perform a detailed observational analysis of network jets to understand their kinematics, rotational motion, and underlying triggering mechanism(s). We analyzed the quiet-Sun (QS) data.Methods.IRIS high-resolution imaging and spectral observations (slit-jaw images: Si IV1400.0 Å; raster: Si IV1393.75 Å) were used to analyze the omnipresent rotating network jets in the transition region (TR). In addition, we also used observations from the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on board the Solar Dynamic Observation (SDO).Results.The statistical analysis of 51 network jets is performed to understand their various mean properties, e.g., apparent speed (140.16 ± 39.41 km s−1), length (3.16 ± 1.18 Mm), and lifetimes (105.49 ± 51.75 s). The Si IV1393.75 Å line has a secondary component along with its main Gaussian, which is formed due to the high-speed plasma flows (i.e., network jets). The variation in Doppler velocity across these jets (i.e., blueshift on one edge and redshift on the other) signify the presence of inherited rotational motion. The statistical analysis predicts that the mean rotational velocity (i.e., ΔV) is 49.56 km s−1. The network jets have high-angular velocity in comparison to the other class of solar jets.Conclusions.The signature of network jets is inherited in TR spectral lines in terms of the secondary component of the Si IV1393.75 Å line. The rotational motion of network jets is omnipresent, which is reported first for this class of jet-like features. The magnetic reconnection seems to be the most favorable mechanism for the formation of these network jets.
