Comparing the main oscillation characteristics in the solar chromosphere and magnetosphere based on studies made in ISTP SB RAS

open access: yesSolar-Terrestrial Physics, 2018
The aim of this paper is to structure and extend the knowledge of solar chromospheric sources of oscillations in the solar wind and their relationships with pulsations registered in the magnetosphere.

Where are Sunspots? The Practical Method of Galileo as an example of Mental Model

open access: yesZagadnienia Filozoficzne w Nauce, 2019
After the publication of Sidereus Nuncius, in the controversy with Ch. Scheiner, Galileo developed several arguments on behalf of the hypothesis that sunspots are contiguous to the surface of the Sun, and presented them in his Istoria e dimostrazioni ...

Deciphering Solar Magnetic Activity: Spotting Solar Cycle 25

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2017
We present observational signatures of solar cycle 25 onset. Those signatures are visibly following a migratory path from high to low latitudes. They had starting points that are asymmetrically offset in each hemisphere at times that are 21–22 years ...

Exploring spatial and temporal patterns across solar cycles: Focusing on active longitudes

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Active longitudes (ALs) are proposed behavioural patterns on the Sun, whereby certain solar phenomena tend to appear at preferred longitudes, with these longitudes shifting over time on a scale of a few Carrington rotations (CRs).

Modelling solar radial velocities and photometric variability with SOAP

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Stellar activity remains one of the main limitations in the detection of Earth-like planets using radial velocity (RV) measurements. The Sun, as the only star for which surface features can be spatially resolved, offers a unique testbed for ...

Magnetic structure of coronal dark halos

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. At low coronal temperatures around or below 1 MK distinct areas in the surroundings of active regions (ARs) show emission at a level significantly below the emission coming from the quiet Sun (QS). These areas are referred to as dark halos, dark

In-flight calibration of RADEM, the JUICE mission radiation monitor

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The RADiation-hard Electron Monitor (RADEM) aboard the JUpiter ICy moons Explorer (JUICE) mission, launched on April 14, 2023, measures high-energy protons and electrons during the cruise phase and will continue to do so during the nominal ...

The magneto-convective nature of dark striations and moving bright grains at the edge of pores

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. High-resolution observations of the Sun reveal a multitude of small-scale striations throughout the photosphere. While these features are well observed in broad-band intensity images, spectropolarimetric observations remain rare. Aims.

The Hearth of the World: The Sun before Astrophysics

open access: yesUniverse
This paper presents a historical overview of conceptions about the Sun in Western astronomical and cosmological traditions before the advent of spectroscopy and astrophysics. Rather than studying general cultural ideas, we focus on the concepts developed
