Soonspot: Software to Determine Areas and Sunspot Positions

P. Galaviz, V. M. S. Carrasco, F. Sánchez-Bajo +2

A new software (Soonspot) for the determination of the heliographic coordinates and areas of sunspots from solar images is presented. This program is very user-friendly and the acc…

Sunspot characteristics at the onset of the Maunder Minimum based on the observations of Hevelius

V. M. S. Carrasco, J. M. Vaquero, M. C. Gallego +8

An analysis of the sunspot observations made by Hevelius during 1642-1645 is presented. These records are the only systematic sunspot observations just before the Maunder Minimum.…

Sunspot Catalogue of the Observatory of the University of Coimbra (1929-1941)

V. M. S. Carrasco, J. M. Vaquero, M. C. Gallego +3

A sunspot catalogue was published by the Coimbra Astronomical Observatory (Portugal), now named Geophysical and Astronomical Observatory of the University of Coimbra, for the perio…

The umbra-penumbra area ratio of sunspots during the Maunder Minimum

V. M. S. Carrasco, J. M. García-Romero, J. M. Vaquero +4

The Maunder Minimum (MM) was a prolonged period of low solar activity that occurred between 1645 and 1715. The true level of solar activity corresponding to this epoch is still a m…

A Curious History of Sunspot Penumbrae: An Update

V. M. S. Carrasco, J. M. Vaquero, R. M. Trigo +1

The ratio of penumbral to umbral area of sunspots is an important topic for solar and geophysical studies. Hathaway (Solar Physics, 286, 347, 2013) found a curious behaviour in thi…

Extreme value theory applied to the millennial sunspot number series

F. J. Acero, M. C. Gallego, J. A. García +2

In this work, we use two decadal sunspot number series reconstructed from cosmogenic radionuclide data (14C in tree trunks, SN-14C and 10Be in polar ice, SN-10Be) and the Extreme V…
