Anomalous electron density events in the quiet summer ionosphere at solar minimum over Millstone Hill
This study compares the observed behavior of the F region ionosphere over Millstone Hill with calculations from the IZMIRAN model for solar minimum for the geomagnetically quiet period 23±25 June 1986, when anomalously low values of hmF 2 <200 km) were observed. We found that these low values of hmF 2 (seen as a G condition on ionograms) exist in the ionosphere due to a decrease of production r...
متن کاملIf the Sun is so quiet, why is the Earth ringing? A comparison of two solar minimum intervals
[1] Observations from the recent Whole Heliosphere Interval (WHI) solar minimum campaign are compared to last cycle’s Whole Sun Month (WSM) to demonstrate that sunspot numbers, while providing a good measure of solar activity, do not provide sufficient information togaugesolar andheliosphericmagneticcomplexity and its effect at the Earth. Thepresent solarminimum is exceptionally quiet,with suns...
متن کاملThree newly-discovered M-dwarf companions of Solar Neighbourhood stars
We present low-resolution spectroscopy of newly-discovered candidate companions to three stars in the Solar Neighbourhood. All three companions are M dwarfs, with spectral types ranging from M4 to M9.5. In two cases, G85-55‘B’ (M6) and G87-9‘B’ (M4), we have circumstantial evidence from spectroscopy, photometry and limited astrometry Portions of the data presented here were obtained at the W.M....
متن کاملThe sun and heliosphere at solar maximum.
Recent Ulysses observations from the Sun's equator to the poles reveal fundamental properties of the three-dimensional heliosphere at the maximum in solar activity. The heliospheric magnetic field originates from a magnetic dipole oriented nearly perpendicular to, instead of nearly parallel to, the Sun's rotation axis. Magnetic fields, solar wind, and energetic charged particles from low-latitu...
متن کاملEUV brightness variations in the quiet Sun
The Coronal Diagnostic Spectrometer (CDS) onboard the SOHO satellite has been used to obtain movies of quiet Sun regions at disc centre. These movies were used to study brightness variations of solar features at three different temperatures sampled simultaneously in the chromospheric He I 584.3 Å (2·104 K), the transition region O V 629.7 Å (2.5·105 K) and coronal Mg IX 368.1 Å (106 K) lines. I...
