Magnetically Preferred Solar Longitudes: Reality?
The observed persistence of specific periodicities detected in time series associated with solar surface magnetic activity over several solar cycles has led to numerous papers supporting the existence of preferred longitudes. Recent analysis of the past 120 years of sunspot number data showed that no observed periodicity remained coherent for durations greater than two 11-year solar cycles. Her...
متن کاملThe solar magnetic field and the solar wind: Existence of preferred longitudes
Direct measurements of the solar wind speed and the radial component of the interplanetary magnetic field acquired over more than three solar cycles are used to search for signatures of a persistent dependence of solar wind properties on olar longitude. Two methods of analysis are used. One finds the rotation period that maximizes theamplitude of longitudinal variations of both interplanetary a...
متن کاملMoments of energetic particle distributions in the solar atmosphere
This paper describes a theory that provides a direct link between observable properties of energetic particle distributions and the unobservable properties of the initial distributions. A general approach is first outlined and then applied to the specific situation of collisional electron transport in the solar atmosphere. By building on previous results, this treatment does not require explici...
متن کاملOnset Study of Impulsive Solar Energetic Particle Events
Impulsive solar energetic particle (SEP) events are associated with impulsive X-ray flares, energetic electrons, and enhanced heavy ion abundances. Using instruments on ACE, we have examined the composition and origin of twelve impulsive SEP events from November 1997 to June 2000. have enhanced ‘HerHe ratios compared with the solar wind values. All selected impulsive SEP events The range of ‘He...
متن کاملInitial Time Dependence of Abundances in Solar Energetic Particle Events.
We compare the initial behavior of Fe/O and He/H abundance ratios and their relationship to the evolution of the proton energy spectra in "small" and "large" gradual solar energetic particle (SEP) events. The results are qualitatively consistent with the behavior predicted by the theory of Ng et al. published in 1999. He/H ratios that initially rise with time are a signature of scattering by no...
