The large-scale photospheric magnetic field, measured by the Mr. Wilson magnetograph, has been analyzed in terms of surface harmonics (Pn"~(0)cosmq~ and P~m(O) sinm(o) for the years 1959 through 1972. Our results are as follows. The single harmonic which most often characterized the general solar ma
Does the large-scale solar magnetic field distribution really reflect the convective velocity fields?

Observations demonstrate a nearly 22-year periodic zonal flow superimposed on general solar differential rotation (LaBonte and Howard, 1982) and some meridional motions (e.g., Tuominen, Tuominen, and Kyrol~inen, 1983). Such flows can be excited by the magnetic wave generated by the dynamo in the sol
A clearly evident large-scalc pattern in the interplanetary magnetic field during 1964 is used to search for a similar large-scale pattern in thc selar magnetic field. It is found that such a pattern did exist in the photospheric ticld observations on both sides of the equator over a range of at lea
A study is made of the rotation of large-scale magnetic fields using the synoptic maps from the Kitt Peak National Observatory for the time interval 1976-1985. The auto-correlation method and the mass-centers method of magnetic structures was applied to infer mean differential rotation profiles and
