MAGNETISM OF THE SUN

CHANDRAKANT L. TUMBADE

Published By : Laxmi Book Publication

Abstract :

The Sun is a magnetically active star. It supports a strong, changing magnetic field that varies year-to-year and reverses direction about every eleven years around solar maximum. The Sun's magnetic field leads to many effects that are collectively called solar activity, including sunspots on the surface of the Sun, solar flares, and variations in solar wind that carry material through the Solar System. For study of magnetism of the Sun i.e. Solar Magnetism. Magnetic fields are present almost everywhere on the Sun. Without these fields the Sun would have been a rather dull object.
