โฆ Synopsis
A strong correlation was found between the dips in the total solar irradiance and the peaks in the active sunspot areas as well as in the 260 MHz coronal radio flux. This connection might indicate that Alfv6n-waves, generated during the interaction of the magnetic fields of the active sunspot groups with the convection, are able to transport away part of the missing energy in the solar constant decreases. These waves can heat the solar corona above the sunspot groups. Another part of the missing energy could be re-radiated later, for example during the decay of the active regions.

Coronal mass ejection transients observed with the white light coronagraph on Skylab are found to be associated with several other forms of solar activity. There is a strong correlation between such mass ejection transients and chromospheric Ha activity, with three-quarters of the transients apparen
The cosmic ray modulation in the period 1965-70 is investigated by the comparison of the intensity data of groundbased stations with different response to primaries. The socalled step-like modulation, already observed by other authors, is found to be produced by the overlapping between the quasi-sta
