Large amplitude solar 5-min intensity oscillations have recently been detected at 2.23 μm using broad band (650 Å FWHM) photometry (Leifsen and Maltby, 1990). Large intensity amplitudes in a broad range in the near infrared was unexpected, and several questions concerning the source of the high amplitudes were raised. In an attempt to study the nature of these oscillations, time series of spectra have been obtained with the Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS) of the McMath telescope at National Solar Observatory at Kitt Peak. We present preliminary results from a 10 day long run in May 1991 in support for the suggestion that the results may be useful in both helio- and asteroseismological investigations.
