Abstract

The parameters of type III solar radio sources have been observed to vary approximately as powers of the heliocentric distance. Recent theoretical studies of fundamental and harmonic emission are used to express the power-law exponents in terms of five basic ones. The results are then used to obtain a best fit to these five exponents, consistent with observed values of a set of 13 exponents.
