Polar Filaments Capture High Latitude Solar Poloidal Field Interactions and can Foretell the Future Sunspot Cycle Amplitude before Polar Field Precursors

Srinjana Routh, Shaonwita Pal, Dibyendu Nandy +3

Polar fields at the minimum of a sunspot cycle -- which are a manifestation of the radial component of the Sun's poloidal field -- are deemed to be the best indicator of the streng…

Extreme Fluctuations in the Sun's Activity over the Modern Maximum: Understanding the Enigmatic Solar Cycles 19-20

Shaonwita Pal, Dibyendu Nandy

Over the past century, the Sun's activity -- which exhibits significant variations -- went through a phase known as the Modern Maximum. Notably, the strongest sunspot cycle on reco…

Algebraic Quantification of the Contribution of Active Regions to the Sun's Dipole Moment: Applications to Century-scale Polar Field Estimates and Solar Cycle Forecasting

Shaonwita Pal, Dibyendu Nandy

The solar cycle is generated by a magnetohydrodynamic dynamo mechanism which involves the induction and recycling of the toroidal and poloidal components of the Sun's magnetic fiel…

Impact of Anomalous Active Regions on the Large-scale Magnetic Field of the Sun

Shaonwita Pal, Prantika Bhowmik, Sushant S. Mahajan +1

One of the major sources of perturbation in the solar cycle amplitude is believed to be the emergence of anomalous active regions which do not obey Hale's polarity law and Joy's la…

Exploring the Solar Poles: The Last Great Frontier of the Sun

Dibyendu Nandy, Dipankar Banerjee, Prantika Bhowmik +19

Despite investments in multiple space and ground-based solar observatories by the global community, the Sun's polar regions remain unchartered territory - the last great frontier f…
