Nonlinear analysis of solar cycles

چکیده
In this paper, the recent improvement of the Wolf sunspot time–series by Hoyt and co-workers has been analysed with the Global Flow Reconstruction (GFR) method (Serre et al. 1996a and b). A nonlinear 4–dimensional chaotic model has been extracted from the data which captures the principal characteristic features of the sunspot group time–series. The hypothesis of interactions between magnetic modes is implicitly tested; presumably, this is the cause of the irregular variations of solar cycle amplitudes recorded since the year 1610. The present results indicate that interactions are occurring between few global magnetic modes.

Restricted charge recombination process in PbS quantum dot sensitized solar cells by different coating cycles of ZnS films
The relatively low power conversion efficiency (PCE) of quantum dot sensitized solar cells (QDSSCs) is attributed to charge recombination at the interfaces. Charge recombination process could be suppressed by coating the QD layer with a wide band gap semiconductor such as ZnS, which acts as a blocking layer between the QDs and hole transport material (HTM). In present study, to improve PCE of P...
متن کاملDetecting Oscillations Hidden in Noise: Common Cycles in Atmospheric, Geomagnetic and Solar Data
In this chapter we present a nonlinear enhancement of a linear method, the singular system analysis (SSA), which can identify potentially predictable or relatively regular processes, such as cycles and oscillations, in a background of colored noise. The first step in the distinction of a signal from noise is a linear transformation of the data provided by the SSA. In the second step, the dynami...
متن کاملThermodynamic modeling and comprehensive off-design performance analysis of a real integrated solar combined cycle power plant
In this paper thermodynamic modeling and comprehensive performance analysis of a real integrated solar combined cycle (ISCC) power plant are performed. Performance of the plant cycle is assessed in off-design condition and in two operation modes of power-boosting and fuel-saving. Such an approach has not been considered for an ISCC plant in the previous studies. Under studied ISCC which is loca...
متن کاملVariations of the solar cycle profile in a solar dynamo with fluctuating dynamo governing parameters
Context. Solar cycles vary in their amplitude and shape. There are several empirical relations between various parameters linking cycle’s shape and amplitude, in particular the Waldmeier relations. Aims. As solar cycle is believed to be a result of the solar dynamo action, these relations require explanation in the framework of this theory. Here we aim to present a possible explanation of such ...
متن کاملOn Predicting the Solar Cycle using Mean-Field Models
We discuss the difficulties of predicting the solar cycle using mean-field models. Here we argue that these difficulties arise owing to the significant modulation of the solar activity cycle, and that this modulation arises owing to either stochastic or deterministic processes. We analyse the implications for predictability in both of these situations by considering two separate solar dynamo mo...
