RUI: A Study of the Effects of Magnetic Activity on the Variation of Solar Luminosity

磁活动对太阳光度变化影响的研究这一建议涉及与太阳圆盘上的对比特征有关的观测。这些都很重要，因为我们已经发现太阳辐照度的变化与太阳表面的这些对比特征是一致的。PI的研究旨在将这些变化与太阳活动的各种组成部分联系起来。这将有助于了解太阳中的能量传输，从而了解太阳活动对地球的影响。过去的研究表明，光斑是增强辐照度的重要来源。作者将继续在不同波长下获得准确的、每日的、全圆盘的太阳光度观测。这些可以模拟太阳黑子、斑、斑和网络区域和强度方面的辐照度变化。这些数据将探测太阳磁场与对流能量外流相互作用的物理学。他们的工作将主要由学生承担，从国家科学基金会的角度来看，这个项目对未来的社会是理想的。

RUI: A Study of the Effects of Magnetic Activity on the Variation of Solar Luminosity This proposal deals with observations related to contrast features on the disk of the Sun. These are important since we have found that the solar irradiance varies in accordance with these contrast features on the solar disk. The PI's research aims to associate these changes with the various components of solar activity. This should help to understand energy transport in the sun and thus the effects of solar activity on the Earth. Past work has shown that faculae are an important source for irradiance enhancement. The authors will continue to obtain accurate, daily, full-disk, photometric observations of the sun at various wavelengths. These allow modelling of irradiance variations in terms of sunspot, facular, plage, and network areas and intensities. These data will probe the physics of the interaction of solar magnetic fields with convective energy outflow. Their work will mostly be undertaken by students, making this project ideal from NSF's point of view for the future of society.
