Flare differentially rotates sunspot on Sun's surface
Sunspots are concentrations of magnetic field visible on the solar surface (photosphere). It was considered implausible that solar flares, as resulted from magnetic reconnection in the tenuous corona, would cause a direct perturbation of the dense photosphere involving bulk motion. Here we report the sudden flare-induced rotation of a sunspot using the unprecedented spatiotemporal resolution of...
متن کاملFlare and CME Properties and Rates at Sunspot Minimum
The corona at solar minimum generally differs greatly from that during active times. We discuss the current Cycle 23/24 minimum from the point of view of the occurrence of flares and CMEs (Coronal Mass Ejections). By comparison with the previous minimum, the flare/CME ratio diminished by almost an order of magnitude. This suggests that the environmental effect in flare/CME association differed ...
متن کاملOn the size distribution of sunspot groups in the Greenwich sunspot record 1874 - 1976
We investigate the size distribution of the maximum areas and the instantaneous distribution of areas of sunspot groups using the Greenwich sunspot group record spanning the interval 1874-1976. Both distributions are found to be well described by log-normal functions. Using a simple model we can transform the maximum area distribution into the instantaneous area distribution if the sunspot area...
متن کاملThe Differences in the Relationship between Ionospheric Critical Frequencies and Sunspot Number for Different Sunspot Cycles
Analysis of data for Washington and Watheroo indicates differences in the relationship between føF2 and sunspot number for the current and preceding sunspot cycles. The sunspot number is therefore not entirely satisfactory as an index for ionospheric variations. Consequently, ionospheric data for the current cycle only should be used in preparing ionospheric radio propagation predictions whenev...
متن کاملAutomated McIntosh-Based Classification of Sunspot Groups Using MDI Images
A hybrid system for the automated detection and McIntosh-based classification of sunspot groups on SOHO/MDI white-light images using active-region data extracted from SOHO/MDI magnetogram images is presented in this paper. After sunspots are detected from MDI white-light images they are grouped/clustered using MDI magnetogram images. By integrating image-processing and Neural Networks technique...
