Dear users, the current 24th solar cycle (SC), the first cycle of the 2nd epoch of the lowered of solar activity (SA), has been going on for a full 11 years, which exceeds the duration of all high cycles of the era of increased SA and slightly exceeds the average period of the duration of cycles (10.9 years) of the epoch of the lowered SA. I.e. we got one more proof of the existence of two epochs of SA - 2 modes of solar dynamo.It follows from here that active regions on the Sun and, in particular, sunspots form under three completely different physical conditions: when the background magnetic field of the Sun is lowered, when its level is elevated, and in transitional SCs (23, 17, 11), when alternating background of the general magnetic field, when the total magnetic field of the Sun is rebuilt to the level corresponding to the upcoming epoch of SA. Now begins an interesting period of waiting for records: 1. The current cycle has already reached the lowest Wolf number for reliable SCs and continues to fall. Before that, the record holder was SC 15 (W * = 1.5), 2. Will it become shorter than SC12 - the 1st cycle of the past epoch of low SA (11.3) and what surprises is the current cycle still preparing for us. The intrigue takes place ... We’re waiting ... ------------------------------------------------------------------- THE RELATIVE MONTHLY MEAN SUNSPOT NUMBER ON MARCH 2020 HAS MADE Wmar. = 3.5 5.8(n) THAT GIVES FOR 129 MONTH (2019, OCTOBER) OF DEVELOPMENT CURRENT 24 SOLAR CYCLE THE SMOOTHED MONTHLY MEAN SUNSPOT NUMBER W*dec. = 1.14 1.9 - new system W*nov. = 1.3 2.1 - new system On July 1, 2015 Centre in Brussels moved to a new system of calcu- lation the relative number of sunspots and practically all of the values were replaced throughout the numbered series of Wolf numbers (see link). While there is addictive, I recalculated (0.6) to the old system, but only W*, and present below the new values for the minimum and maximum of 24 cycles SA. THE BEGINNING OF 24 SOLAR CYCLE - I 2009 with W*=1.8; (2.2) THE TIME OF THE CURRENT CYCLE MAXIMUM - IV 2014, - Wmax =82; (116.4) THE END OF 24 SOLAR CYCLE (THE POINT OF MINIMUM) - I - VI 2020; OTHER SC FORECAST: SM : SIDC classical method : based on an interpolation of Waldmeier's standard curves; the estimated error ranges from 7% (first month) to 35% (last month) - February 2020; NOAA - December 2019. The last two, in my opinion, are inadequate, since such short, low SCs were not observed. The observed magnetic structures corresponding SC 25 (>43 on October 2019) can be seen http://www.solen.info/solar/cycle25_spots.html Provisional daily International Sunspot Numbers for June 2020 (70 obser- vatories): 1.. 5 6.. 16 11.. 11 16.. 0 21.. 0 26.. 6 2.. 0 7.. 16 12.. 11 17.. 0 22.. 0 27.. 4 3.. 9 8.. 17M 13.. 11 18.. 0 23.. 0 28.. 0 4.. 11 9.. 14 14.. 11 19.. 0 24.. 0 29.. 0 5.. 13 10.. 11 15.. 8 20.. 0 25.. 0 30.. 0 Minimum : 0 on 2, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 28, 29, 30 [The daily value W in old system close to true (in a minimum phase) can be received, multiplying by k = 0.6].
