... In collaborative work with David Garc?a Alvarez (an Observatory PhD student now at Harvard) and John Butler, an extensive study of the RS CVn binary HR1099 was completed leading to two papers; the first on Doppler imaging and the second on flare activity. Spectra for the Doppler imaging were taken at two different sites, Kitt Peak National Observatory (KPNO), Arizona, and Mount Stromlo Observatory (MSO), Australia, during the 1998 MUltiSIte COntinuous Spectroscopic (MUSICOS) campaign. ...

... It is found that the correlation coefficients between these two parameters calculated separately inside and outside the sunspot formation zone ±30 have cyclic variation and occur in anti-phase. This suggests different mechanisms of formation of the corona in the fields of small, medium, and large scales. ... The relationship between the coronal green line brightness (CGLB) and the magnetic field strength (MFS) has been investigated by constructing the corresponding synoptic maps for the 1977-2001. ...

Ground based magnetometer measurements are used to derive several indices that describe magnetic activity in the Earth 's environment. aa , AE , Ak(Hel) , Kp , Dst , PC , MT . ... AE index is an auroral electrojet index obtained from a number (usually greater than 10) of stations distributed in local time in the latitude region that is typical of the northern hemisphere auroral zone (Davis and Sugiura, 1966). ...

Solar Activity at High Resolution . ... Solar Group . ... Researchers in Arcetri are involved in studies of solar activity at high temporal and spatial resolution, especially at photospheric and chromospheric levels. Our principal aim is to study the temporal correlation between the flares at coronal levels (e.g. hard X-rays emission) and the lower atmospheric signatures, mainly during the preflare and the impulsive phase. ...
