Solar prominences are cool and dense plasma suspended in the million-degree solar corona. Recent observations reveal that prominences are composed of fine and highly dynamic threads aligned with the local magnetic field. We have constructed a 3D time-dependent model of a prominence combining a magnetic field structure with 1D independent

Changes in the galactic cosmic ray (GCR) flux due to variations in solar activity may provide an indirect connection between the Sun's and the Earth's climates. Epoch superpositional (composite) analyses of high-magnitude GCR fluctuations, known as Forbush decrease (FD) events, have been widely used to test this hypothesis, with varied results

There is argument as to the extent to which there has been an increase over the past few decades in the frequency of the extremes of climatic parameters, such as temperature, storminess, precipitation, etc, an obvious point being that Global Warming might be responsible. Here we report results on those parameters of which we have had experience

The solar dynamo is thought to be generated at the tachocline and the deepest layers of the convection zone. Yet much about these layers or how this mechanism works remains unknown. In this work we present the first of a series of steps in order to apply helioseismic holography to the study of the tachocline. Traditionally a plane-parallel
