Large ephemeral regions and their tilt angles

Rambahadur Gupta, Anu Sreedevi, Bibhuti Kumar Jha +1

The ephemeral regions (ERs), which are short-lived bipolar magnetic regions that emerge across the solar cycle but do not appear as sunspots, play a crucial role in the Sun's magne…

Variation of the sunspot area during the rising and declining phases of the solar cycle supports the toroidal flux loss due to flux emergence

Bidya Binay Karak, Soumya Mishra, Anu Sreedevi

Sunspots are obvious observable manifestations of the toroidal magnetic field generated through the dynamo in the convection zone. They appear in different sizes, having a wide dis…

Backtracking Bipolar Magnetic Regions to their emergence: Two groups and their implication in the tilt measurements

Anu Sreedevi, Bidya Binay Karak, Bibhuti Kumar Jha +2

Bipolar Magnetic Regions (BMRs) that appear on the solar photosphere are surface manifestations of the Suns internal magnetic field. With modern observations and continuous data st…

Role of sunspot latitude versus tilt in determining the polar field and amplitude of the next cycle: Cause of the weak Solar Cycle 20

Bidisha Dey, Anu Sreedevi, Bidya Binay Karak

One prominent feature of solar cycle is its irregular variation in its cycle strength, making it challenging to predict the amplitude of the next cycle. Studies show that fluctuati…

Observed Joys law of Bipolar Magnetic Region tilts at the emergence supports the thin flux tube model

Anu Sreedevi, Bidya Binay Karak, Bibhuti Kumar Jha +2

Bipolar sunspots, or more generally, Bipolar Magnetic Regions, BMRs, are the dynamic magnetic regions that appear on the solar surface and are central to solar activity. One striki…
