Scientific paper

Results are discussed for high-resolution spectrographic observations which detected a unique microstructure in the continuum of meter-wavelength type IV bursts. The continuous emission was found to be modulated by pulsations with a duration of seconds consisting of emission and absorption bands and dots which produced complex chaotic forms in the spectrum. A comparison is made with various emission microstructures observed in other phenomena, and the main requirements for a production mechanism are determined. A model of the emission source is proposed which consists of a magnetic force tube in which high-frequency radiation may be modulated by whistler wave packets. It is concluded that the presence of microstructure in the solar radio continuum may indicate a significant level of plasma turbulence in the source.
