During the past decade a number of instruments designed for studying solar oscillations have been developed at the Sayan Observatory. A double solar telescope using two Jensch-coelostats and two objective lenses provides the capability to filter lower-order modes. This instrument is also used (in the single-telescope mode) for making observations of the mean magnetic field of the sun. Spatially-differential methods based on polarization separation of images are best suited for investigations of local oscillations and higher-order modes. These methods makes it possible to carry out narrow-band spatial filtering of large wave numbers. They are useful when investigating contrast oscillations as well as the oscillations and rotation of sunspots and other solar features.
