Sunspot AR 2546

sunspots are regions on the sun's surface with a lower temperature than the local average, and therefore, in comparison with the surface of our star appear to be darker.

Sunspots have high concentrations of magnetic field. This concentrate the magnetic field traps matter in the form of plasma, ie very hot and ionized and electrically charged gas. Notice in the picture above we can see the lines of the magnetic field induction in the sunspot. It is something like the lines that we see when we play iron filings near a magnet. But the sunspot is the plasma that makes the turn of swarf.

If the magnetic field lines break, matter can be launched into space in events called coronal mass ejection. In this case, numerous particles are hurled into space and many of them can reach the Earth. The boreal and southern auroras result of the arrival of these particles interact with the Earth's atmosphere.

Along with the ejected particles from the Sun, also have broad spectrum of radiation that typically range from radio waves to gamma rays, through the light (visible) and the X-rays

The amount of observable sunspots gives us an idea of solar activity.

The attached pictures were all made using an achromatic refractor Sky-Watcher

f / 8.3 with Solar Baader sheet and Solar Continuum filter with a filter UV-IR Cut. The camera used was a 224 ASI colorful.

The original output is green and the right pictures were colorized to become more like the color you got used to consider the sun. The left photos were simply converted to black and white.

In each group of photos was used a different increase in both top only camera in the center of the camera with a 2X Powermate and low with a Tele Vue 3X Barlow.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
