The Cross-Field Resistance of the Solar Photosphere
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 April 2016
Abstract
The height-integrated Pedersen and Hall conductivities are calculated for the weakly ionized region of the solar atmosphere in the vicinity of a sunspot. The values obtained are much larger than previous authors have estimated. Dynamo theories for solar flares which rely on the photospheric region having a large resistance are untenable.
