Special variants of the Novaya Zemlya effect may arise from localized temperature inversions that follow the height profile of hills or mountains. Rather than following its natural path, the rising or setting Sun may, under such circumstances, appear to slide along a distant mountain slope.

Helioseismic techniques allow us to probe the interior of the Sun with very high precision and in the process test the physical inputs to stellar models. The picture of the Sun that has been built in this manner may be termed “The Seismic Sun”. After a brief discussion of some of the inversion techniques used in the process, our current view of the ...

The nature of our star, the Sun, is dominated by its complex and variable magnetic fields. It is the purpose of this paper to review the fundamental nature of our magnetic Sun by outlining the most basic principles behind the way the Sun works and how its fields are generated, and to examine not only the historical observations of our magnetic star ...

The Sun, Sun Myths, and Sun Worship
1976Most of us take the sun for granted. We know it to be a heavenly body subject to the same laws of physics that govern events on earth. For example, we know that the earth’s axis is not vertical to the earth’s orbit around the sun; that the resultant oblique angles at which the sun’s rays strike the earth cause seasonal variation in radiation (as Figure
