Tremendous progress has been made in the field of observational coronal magnetometry in the first decade of the Twenty-First century. With the successful construction of the Coronal Multichannel Magnetometer (CoMP) instrument, observations of the linear polarization of the coronal emission lines (CELs), which carry information about the azimuthal direction of the coronal magnetic fields, are no...

Bald patches are magnetic topologies in which the magnetic field is concave up over part of a photospheric polarity inversion line. A bald patch topology is believed to be the essential ingredient for filament channels and is often found in extrapolations of the observed photospheric field. Using an analytic source-surface model to calculate the magnetic topology of a small bipolar region embed...

We present an analysis of 26 far-ultraviolet emission lines belonging to 19 atoms and ions observed on both sides of the boundary of polar coronal holes as well as other quiet Sun areas along the limb. The observations were made with the SUMER instrument (Solar Ultraviolet Measurements of Emitted Radiation) onboard the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO). We compare line intensities, shif...

Two Self Organising Map neural networks have been trained to classify structures in the solar wind, one using Bz, n, and V, and the other using p and E. The classification has been done for values of the Dst index at -50, -100, -150, -200, and -250 nT, for events where the gradient of n and V exceeded a certain threshold (shocks as a result of coronal mass ejections) and for events where the gr...

BACKGROUND To determine the most important preoperative factors that affect postoperative coronal parameters of scoliotic curves. METHODS All Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) patients included in the study were classified according to Lenke and King Classification. The fusion levels were selected according to the rigidity of the existing curves (correction less than 50%), tilt of T1 and ...

conclusions the influences of various facilities and barriers were different in the physical activity of elderly in kashan. the promotion of active life style should be a part of health care planning in elderly. background the supplements and decreasing the limitations are important for suitable physical activity. these factors are different in various environments. objectives the current study...

STUDY DESIGN A retrospective radiographic study. PURPOSE To evaluate the axial plane lumbar responses after anterior selective thoracic fusion (STF) in patients with main thoracic adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (MT-AIS). OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE Anterior scoliosis surgery induces more MT derotation through disc preparation than posterior surgery. METHODS Twenty-eight MT-AIS patients treate...
