Geomagnetic storms driven by ICME- and CIR-dominated solar wind. [PDF]
, 2006 The interaction of the solar wind and the Earth's magnetosphere is complex and the phenomenology of the interaction is very different for solar wind dominated by interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) compared to solar wind dominated by corotating

Solar Sailing: applications and technology advancement [PDF]
, 2011 Harnessing the power of the Sun to propel a spacecraft may appear somewhat ambitious and the observation that light exerts a force contradicts everyday experiences.

Deciphering solar magnetic activity: on grand minima in solar activity [PDF]
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2015 The Sun provides the energy necessary to sustain our existence. While the Sun provides for us, it is also capable of taking away. The weather and climatic scales of solar evolution and the Sun-Earth connection are not well understood. There has been tremendous progress in the century since the discovery of solar magnetism - magnetism that ultimately ...

NANOFLARE ACTIVITY IN THE SOLAR CHROMOSPHERE [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2014 We use ground-based images of high spatial and temporal resolution to search for evidence of nanoflare activity in the solar chromosphere. Through close examination of more than 10^9 pixels in the immediate vicinity of an active region, we show that the distributions of observed intensity fluctuations have subtle asymmetries.

The magnetic fields, activity and hidden companions of solar-type stars [PDF]
, 2023 The magnetic fields of the Sun and other solar-type stars manifest in a range of observable surface phenomena that provide insight into the magnetic dynamos operating within, but also hamper the detection of exoplanets.

Heartbeat of the sun from principal component analysis and prediction of solar activity on a millenium timescale [PDF]
, 2015 We derive two principal components (PCs) of temporal magnetic field variations over the solar cycles 21-24 from full disk magnetograms covering about 39% of data variance, with σ = 0.67. These PCs are attributed to two main magnetic waves travelling from

The effect of colour on the thermal performance of building integrated solar collectors [PDF]
, 2010 The use of solar collectors with coloured absorbers for water heating is an area of particular interest when considering their integration with buildings.

Commission 10: Solar Activity [PDF]
, 2007 Commission 10 aims at the study of various forms of solar activity, including networks, plages, pores, spots, fibrils, surges, jets, filaments/prominences, coronal loops, flares, coronal mass ejections (CMEs), solar cycle, microflares, nanoflares ...

Transactions of the International Astronomical Union, 1982 This report summarizes research on solar activity over an almost three-year period from January 1, 1979, till the end of June 1981. In preparing this report we respected the advice of the I.A.U. Executive Committee to cover the highlights of work carried out in the field of solar physics relevant to our Commission, and avoiding double work.

Solar Activity and Solar Oscillations [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1997 Helioseismology provides us with the tools to probe solar activity. So that we can consider how the solar oscillations are influenced by that activity, we first consider the phenomena that we associate with the active Sun. The surface of the Sun is not quiet but shows evidence of convection on a wide range of scales from a few hundred kilometres ...
