X-RAY RADIANCE AND MAGNETIC FLUX
Soft X-ray and magnetic field observations of the Sun (quiet Sun, X-ray bright points, active regions, and integrated solar disk) and active stars (dwarf and pre–main-sequence) that were used in Figure 1 in Pevtsov et al (2003) in their study of X-ray ...

The Faraday Effect Tracker of Coronal and Heliospheric Structures (FETCH) instrument
There continue to be open questions regarding the solar wind and coronal mass ejections (CMEs). For example: how do magnetic fields within CMEs and corotating/stream interaction regions (CIRs/SIRs) evolve in the inner heliosphere?

Abstract Ejections of magnetized plasma from the Sun, known as coronal mass ejections, can drive major geomagnetic activity if Earth‐directed, and are therefore monitored by space weather forecasters. The current focus being the forecast of the arrival time of a coronal mass ejection at Earth and the level of geomagnetic impact.

Solar Sources of Interplanetary Magnetic Clouds Leading to Helicity Prediction
Abstract This study identifies the solar origins of magnetic clouds that are observed at 1 AU and predicts the helical handedness of these clouds from the solar surface magnetic fields. We started with the magnetic clouds listed by the Magnetic Field Investigation (MFI) team supporting NASA's Wind spacecraft in what is known as the MFI table and worked

Reconstructing Historical Solar Indices for Predicting Past Space Weather Events
Abstract Modeling and forecasting the near‐Earth space environment, specifically the thermosphere, is particularly important because it affects the motion of low‐Earth orbit objects through atmospheric drag. Solar indices such as F10.7, S10.7, M10.7, and Y10.7 are commonly used as inputs to ionospheric and thermospheric density models.

Sun-as-a-star variability of Hα and Ca II 854.2 nm lines
Studies of stellar magnetic fields mostly rely on proxies derived from chromospheric lines, typically forming in the UV and shorter wavelengths and therefore accessible only from space based observatories.

Abstract Forecasting coronal mass ejections (CMEs) remains a challenge, and no reliable, accurate forecasting method has yet been developed. Knowing that CMEs can occur in association with flares, we compare two approaches: (a) forecasting CMEs by coupling to flare forecasting, and (b) forecasting CMEs independently of flare occurrence.

The Solar Activity Monitor Network – SAMNet
The Solar Activity Magnetic Monitor (SAMM) Network (SAMNet) is a future UK-led international network of ground-based solar telescope stations. SAMNet, at its full capacity, will continuously monitor the Sun’s intensity, magnetic, and Doppler velocity ...

First Observations of a Geomagnetic Superstorm With a Sub‐L1 Monitor
Abstract Forecasting the geomagnetic effects of solar coronal mass ejections (CMEs) is currently an unsolved problem. CMEs, responsible for the largest values of the north‐south component of the interplanetary magnetic field, are the key driver of intense and extreme geomagnetic activity.

Preliminary Results on Irradiance Measurements from Lyra and Swap
The first and preliminary results of the photometry of Large Yield Radiometer (LYRA) and Sun Watcher using Active Pixel system detector and Image Processing (SWAP) onboard PROBA2 are presented in this paper. To study the day‐to‐day variations of LYRA irradiance, we have compared the LYRA irradiance values (observed Sun as a star) measured in Aluminum ...
