- Slide 33
- Goals A. Increase Knowledge/Content in the area of astronomy Brown Bag Lunch Sessions: David Kaplan Neutron Stars Dawn Erb- Dark Energy and Accelerating Universe Dr. Creighton: discussions, planetarium shows Personal research of websites, watching videos, reading articles, etc B. Create a unit of inquiry-study dealing with astronomy

- Slide 42
- Outline Sun is a star: Review Rotation/Revolution/Seasons Parts: chromosphere, photosphere, etc ** Phenomena: solar flares, sun spots, ** Media: on solar flares and Earth ** Inquiry/Journal the Sun: Real-Time Observations ** Satellite Images: false-color images ** Using NASA data to create pics of actual sunspots ** Sunspot cycle and correlation to GCC ** Sunspots: auroras, electrical grid malfunctions

- Slide 45
- Satellite Imagery X-RAY Solar Images and the use False Color Imagery When looking at how active the Sun is with respect to radiation (energy), X-RAY imagery is used to show the active areas of the Sun. The active area of the Sun in these images is shown in a different color and is situated along the equatorial region.
- Slide 46
- Satellite Images: Visible Light Imagesof the Sun These are Visible light or white-light images (gray) as we would see the Sun if you were to walk outside and look at it. (CAUTION- NEVER look directly at the Sun) These images show dark sunspots on the Suns outer surface. Sunspots show cooler areas on the Suns outer photosphere.
- Slide 47
- Can you MATCH the White Light image to the correct XRAY image? Do they correlate in someway?
- Slide 48
- Answer: There is an actual physical connection between sunspots and X-ray active regions Sunspots are locations where intense magnetic fields pass through the photosphere. The bright active regions in the corona are also regions of concentrated magnetic field; the loop-like structures sometimes seen in active regions actually trace out the direction of magnetic field lines. The fact that an X-ray active region is found in the corona directly above a photospheric sunspot suggests that the same magnetic field links them both: the magnetic field threads through the sunspot up into the corona, where it loops back down again to the photosphere below.

- Slide 51
- Creating Images from Sun Spots Computers often record and transfer information using a series of ones (1) and zeros (0). This is called a "binary system. Pixels Create images of sun spots from the binary system http://ds9.ssl.berkeley.edu/solarweek/TUESDAY/ACTIVITY/pixelprt.html
