17 Umbra: T 4000 K Penumbra: T 5500 K Photosphere: T 6000 K

18 Sunspots: strong magnetic Fields – Umbra: vertical Penumbra: horizontal

19 The surface intensity shows the sunspot with the dark central umbra surrounded by the somewhat brighter, filamentary penumbra. The second plane cuts from the surface to 24000 km deep showing areas of faster sound speed as reddish colors and slower sound speed as bluish colors. The third plane (bottom) is a horizontal cut at a depth of 22000 km showing the horizontal variation of sound speed.

38  A variety of effects from the particles:  Total dose  Lattice displacement damage  Single events upsets (SEE)  Noise in sensor  Spacecraft charging

39  Cosmic radiation: (protons, highly ion. Heavier nuclei); production of atmospheric secondaries (effects in aircraft systems and sea level electronics); SEEs, background noise  Solar particle events : increase of SEEs; significant enhancements in the radiation at supersonic aircraft altitudes.  Inner Radiation Belt: dose damage, noise and SEE  Outer Radiation Belt : energetic electrons; cummulative dose and dammage effects; deep dielecrtic charging (responsible for anomalies and losses); surface charging anomalies.

40  Temperature, composition and horizontal winds in the Earth‘s atmosphere at orbital altitudes above 120 km are all influenced by variations of solar and geomagnetic activity.  Atmospheric drag: F=C ½  v^2A  Solar radiation force: F=C I/cS, S cross sectional area perpendicular to the direction of solar rays.
