High-resolution white light and H-alpha observations are used to study the development of 15 large active solar regions. The behavior of the magnetic fragments...
Frequency shift of solar p-modes as seen by cross correlation analysis
Data obtained at the Observatorio del Teide (Tenerife) during the years 1978 to 1988 using a resonant scattering spectrophotometer, is analyzed to look for...
Instability and eruption of magnetic flux tubes in the solar convection zone
We present a consistent model of storage, instability and dynamical eruption of magnetic flux tubes in the solar convection zone and underlying overshoot region...
Long-term Spatial and Temporal Variations of Aurora Borealis Events in the Period 1700 - 1905
Catalogues and other records of aurora-borealis events were used to study the long-term spatial and temporal variation of these phenomena in the period from...
Long-Term Trends and Gleissberg Cycles in Aurora Borealis Records (1600 - 2015)
The long-term spatial and temporal variation of aurora borealis events from 1600 to the present were studied using catalogues and other records of these...
Long-term Variation of Solar Activity by a Dynamo Based on Magnetic Flux Tubes
We show that cyclic activity and Maunder-type grand minima can be explained by a dynamo driven by the instability of magnetic flux tubes in the overshoot layer...
We present a visual determination of the number of bright points (BPs) existing in the quiet Sun, which are structures though to trace intense kG magnetic...
Modeling of integrated sunlight velocity measurements: The effect of surface darkening by magnetic fields
It has been known since the work by Claverie et al. (1982) that integrated-sunlight velocities measured with the resonance scattering technique show variations...
The Sun presents us with many unsolved mysteries. In this talk I discuss three of them that have intrigued me for the last 50 years. Solar flares are the most...
