Solar cycle evolution of dipolar and pseudostreamer belts and their relation to the slow solar wind
Dipolar streamers are coronal structures formed by open solar flux converging from coronal holes of opposite polarity. Thus, the dipolar streamer belt traces the coronal foot point of the heliospheric current sheet, and it is strongly associated with the origin of slow solar wind. Pseudostreamers, on the other hand, separate converging regions of open solar flux from coronal holes of the same p...
متن کاملThe Solar–Stellar Connection
The discovery that radio emission from stars is quite common and readily detectable was one of the unexpected advances produced by the Very Large Array [35,11]. This discovery could not be predicted based on what we know of the Sun’s radio emission, even though similar physical mechanisms are operating in stellar radio sources and so knowledge of the Sun’s emission is essential for understandin...
متن کاملVariation of Magnetic Fields and Flows during the Solar Cycle
We have studied dynamo models with realistic assumptions for the induction effects and compare the resulting magnetic fields with observations. We make use of recent results of helioseismology to infer the differential rotation and adopt mixing length approach to get the form of the ct-effect, which is in general anisotropic. Dynamo models are computed numerically using an eigenva.lue method. F...
متن کاملHelical coronal ejections and their role in the solar cycle
The standard theory of the solar cycle in terms of an alpha-Omega dynamo hinges on a proper understanding of the nonlinear alpha effect. Boundary conditions play a surprisingly important role in determining the magnitude of alpha. For closed boundaries, the total magnetic helicity is conserved, and since the alpha effect produces magnetic helicity of one sign in the large scale field, it must s...
متن کاملThe Solar Cycle
The solar cycle is reviewed. The 11-year cycle of solar activity is characterized by the rise and fall in the numbers and surface area of sunspots. A number of other solar activity indicators also vary in association with the sunspots including; the 10.7 cm radio flux, the total solar irradiance, the magnetic field, flares and coronal mass ejections, geomagnetic activity, galactic cosmic ray fl...
