Abstract

Monitoring observations of solar microwave fluxes and their polarization began in Japan during the 1950s at Toyokawa and Mitaka. At present (April 2022), monitoring observations continues with the Nobeyama Radio Polarimeters (NoRP) at the Nobeyama campus of the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (NAOJ). In this paper, we present a brief history of the solar microwave monitoring observations preceding those now carried out by NoRP. We then review the solar microwave flux and polarization measurements obtained at Toyokawa and Nobeyama, and their metadata. The datasets are publicly provided by the Solar Data Archive System (SDAS) operated by the Astronomy Data Center of the NAOJ, via http (https://solar.nro.nao.ac.jp/norp/) and FTP (ftp://solar -pub.nao.ac.jp/pub/nsro/norp/) protocols.
