Summary
Abstract: ABSTRACT: The solar magnetic field is approximately a dipole at high latitudes and is highly irregular at middle and low latitudes. The field apparently gives rise to a coupling between solar differential rotation and the 11-year cycle of solar activity; the field also governs the evolution of individual active regions. Field magnitudes range from a few gauss in quiet regions to a few thousand ... View entire text
