The solar torsional oscillation and dynamo models of the solar cycle

  • 1. Goettingen Univ. (Germany, F.R.). Sternwarte

Description

It is shown that the solar torsional osciallation and overlapping of cycles recently discovered by Howard and LaBonte (1980) can easily be produced by the Lorentz force due to migrating dynamo wave. Comparison with a special flux tube dynamo model (Schuessler, 1980) shows reasonable agreement with the observations. (orig.)
