... It was shown in the early 1980's that spectral lines formed around 1-2.5 x 10 5 K were enhanced in radiance by factors up to 15-25 over the normal quiet Sun. From the dynamical viewpoint, this would suggest a pressure imbalance between the sunspot and the surrounding region. ... Here, the electron density was evaluated over a bright sunspot plume region using lines within the O V 760? multiplet. ... The derived densities in all four regions are indicated. ...

Large-scale activity in solar eruptive events of October-November 2003 by SOHO/EIT data . ... We analyze large-scale disturbances associated with extremely powerful flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) occurred during two passages across the solar disk of a grandiose complex of three active regions in October–November 2003 using SOHO/EIT imaging data. ... In events repeating with short time intervals, the main dimmings observed show clear homology by their form and location. ...

... As first proposed by Axford (1962) and Kellogg (1962), all planetary bodies having either a magnetosphere or a highly conducting ionosphere have also a bow shock associated with the deflection of the solar wind around them. This shock wave develops because the information needed to deflect the solar wind plasma around the obstacle travels at a velocity that is less than that of the solar wind flow. ... intermediate wave . ... Some of the waves are generated in the bow shock and propagate upstream. ...

There is often dust associated with ionized regions. Compact HII regions usually have associated dust from a molecular cloud in which the massive star is being "born". ... For such stars the dust is not produced by the star, and a variety of dust features are observed. The planetary nebulae also usually have associated dust from the previous stage of evolution where they were either carbon stars or M-type giants. ... The feature near 11.5 microns in the IC 418 spectrum may be due to SiC dust. ...

... We report on our ongoing project ``Infrared Study of HII Regions Associated with Small Clouds.' ... These IR data, combined with optical imaging (which will be obtained from the IAC-80 telescope), IRAS survey maps, and existing CO observations of the associated clouds, will allow us to undertake a detailed investigation of the gas-to-dust mass ratio, initial mass function and the star-formation efficiency in these complexes. ...

... The Sun gives us light and heat, sustaining life on Earth. ... This uneven rotation, coupled with the churning of the upper layers, might well be what produces (by a "dynamo mechanism", described in a later section) regions of intense magnetic field, seen by observers on Earth as dark sunspots. ... Near sunspots those streamers seem to be shaped by the Sun's magnetic field lines, and above the Sun's poles they suggest field lines rising from twin magnetic poles like those of the Earth. ...

... Astronomers often talk about stars being huge balls of gas, but they contain a lot of dust too. Take a look at this striking new picture of a region in space in which new stars are being born, called the Carina Nebula. ... However, massive stars that are found in the Nebula can help to push more gas and dust particles together. Such massive stars give off strong winds that can blow material together like when leaves or litter gather together in the playground on a windy day. ...
