exhibit varying morphology and magnetic properties throughout their lifetime, and studying …

A model of a tidally synchronized solar dynamo

F Stefani, A Giesecke, T Weier - Solar Physics, 2019 - Springer
We discuss a solar dynamo model of Tayler–Spruit type whose Ω Ω-effect is conventionally
produced by a solar-like differential rotation but whose α α-effect is assumed to be …

Solar cycle variability induced by tilt angle scatter in a Babcock–Leighton solar dynamo model

BB Karak, M Miesch - The Astrophysical Journal, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
We present results from a three-dimensional Babcock–Leighton (BL) dynamo model that is
sustained by the emergence and dispersal of bipolar magnetic regions (BMRs). On average …

Extreme space-weather events and the solar cycle

MJ Owens, M Lockwood, LA Barnard, CJ Scott… - Solar Physics, 2021 - Springer
Abstract Space weather has long been known to approximately follow the solar cycle, with
geomagnetic storms occurring more frequently at solar maximum than solar minimum. There …

The origin of the “seasons” in space weather

M Dikpati, PS Cally, SW McIntosh, E Heifetz - Scientific reports, 2017 - nature.com
Powerful 'space weather'events caused by solar activity pose serious risks to human health,
safety, economic activity and national security. Spikes in deaths due to heart attacks, strokes …

The detection of Rossby-like waves on the Sun

SW McIntosh, WJ Cramer, M Pichardo Marcano… - Nature …, 2017 - nature.com
Rossby waves are a type of global-scale wave that develops in planetary atmospheres,
driven by the planet's rotation. They propagate westward owing to the Coriolis force, and …

Analysis of solar hemispheric chromosphere properties using the kodaikanal observatory Ca–K index

P Chowdhury, R Belur, L Bertello… - The Astrophysical …, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
Abstract The Kodaikanal Observatory has provided long-term synoptic observations of
chromospheric activities in the Ca ii K line (393.34 nm) since 1907. This article investigates …

Space weather challenge and forecasting implications of Rossby waves

M Dikpati, SW McIntosh - Space Weather, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Rossby waves arise in thin layers within fluid regions of stars and planets. These global
wave‐like patterns occur due to the variation in Coriolis forces with latitude. In the past …
