Theories of solar flares based on the storage of energy (usually as magnetic energy) in the solar atmosphere are shown to be incompatible with observational data. The sunspot energy deficit and the photospheric faculae both involve energy fluxes comparable with the flare requirement ( ~ 3 โข 1029 er
Two independent methods of predicting the magnitude of the peak of a forthcoming sunspot cycle are summarized. One is based on considerations of the development of spots relative to the area of the faculae within which they form during the early stages of the cycle in question, and gives a lead-time
We study the influence of faculae on sunspot heat blockage using a thermal model based on eddy heat diffusion through the convection zone. The facula is represented as a localized area of excess emission surrounding the sunspot, which is represented as a thermal plug. Our computations using a range
