Psychological characteristics of the Heliomed 2 project volunteers and geomagnetic disturbance at high latitudes

Geomagnetic storm is a geomagnetic disturbance that occurs globally. Until now believed that the greatest impact of geomagnetic storms occurred in the high latitudes and decreases with decreasing latitude to the equator. However, based on the data component of the geomagnetic field H obtained CPMN other phenomena, that is H minimum of Onagawa station (31,15o LU; 212,63o BT magnetic coordinates) is smaller than the H minimum at Biak station (9,73o latitude; 207,39o BT magnetic coordinates) during geomagnetic storms on July 15, 2000. This reality is different from what was believed to be on top. To ensure this, then done the analysis of the geomagnetic field H component response based on the latitude using the geomagnetic field data from Biak station and stations around 210o MM for the whole event a strong geomagnetic storms (Dst <-100 nT) during 1995-2001. Results of the analysis showed that the response time of geomagnetic field geomagnetic storm in Biak is greater than at the magnetic equator (YAP) with an difference average of H is 59,27 nT. EEJ and CEJ pattern in the EEJ region (10o S to 10o N magnetic coordinate) shown could effected to the response of geomagnetic geomagnetic. The most important to note that if the geomagnetic response in Indonesia higher than in the geomagnetic equator (YAP) then the occurrence probability of GIC in Indonesia is higher. AbstrakBadai geomagnet merupakan gangguan geomagnet yang terjadi secara global. Sampai saat ini dipercaya bahwa dampak terbesar badai geomagnet terjadi di lintang tinggi dan semakin menurun dengan menurunnya lintang sampai di ekuator. Namun, berdasarkan olah data komponen H medan geomagnet dari CPMN diperoleh fenomena lain yaitu H minimum dari stasiun Onagawa (31,15⁰ LU; 212,63⁰ BT koordinat magnet) lebih kecil dari H minimum Balai Penjejakan dan Kendali Wahana Antariksa (BPKWA) Biak (9,73⁰ LS; 207,39⁰ BT koordinat magnet) saat badai geomagnet 15 Juli 2000. Kenyataan ini berbeda dari apa yang telah dipercayai di atas. Untuk memastikan hal ini maka dilakukan analisis respon komponen H medan geomagnet berdasarkan lintang menggunakan data komponen H medan geomagnet dari BPKWA Biak dan stasiun di sekitar 210⁰ MM untuk seluruh kejadian badai geomagnet kuat (Dst < -100 nT) selama 1995-2001. Hasil analisis diperoleh bahwa respon medan geomagnet saat badai geomagnet di Biak lebih besar dari pada di ekuator magnet (YAP) dengan rata-rata selisih ∆H-nya 59,27 nT. EEJ dan CEJ di daerah EEJ (10⁰ LU sampai 10⁰ LS magnet) terbukti mempengaruhi respon geomagnet. Hal terpenting yang perlu diperhatikan dari hasil ini adalah bahwa jika respon geomagnet di Indonesia lebih tinggi dibandingkan di daerah ekuator geomagnet (YAP) maka potensi kemunculan GIC juga lebih besar terjadi di Indonesia.

Abstract. Lower-thermospheric winds at high latitudes during moderately-disturbed geomagnetic conditions were studied using data obtained with the European Incoherent Scatter (EISCAT) Kiruna-Sodankylä-Tromsø (KST) ultrahigh frequency (UHF) radar system on 9–10 September 2004. The antenna-beam configuration was newly designed to minimize the estimated measurement error of the vertical neutral-wind speed in the lower thermosphere. This method was also available to estimate the meridional and zonal components. The vertical neutral-wind speed at 109 km, 114 km, and 120 km heights showed large upward motions in excess of 30 m s−1 in association with an ionospheric heating event. Large downward speeds in excess of −30 m s−1 were also observed before and after the heating event. The meridional neutral-wind speed suddenly changed its direction from equatorward to poleward when the heating event began, and then returned equatorward coinciding with a decrease in the heating event. The magnetometer data from northern Scandinavia suggested that the center of the heated region was located about 80 km equatorward of Tromsø. The pressure gradient caused the lower-thermospheric wind to accelerate obliquely upward over Tromsø in the poleward direction. Acceleration of the neutral wind flowing on a vertically tilted isobar produced vertical wind speeds larger by more than two orders of magnitude than previously predicted, but still an order of magnitude smaller than observed speeds.

Low Velocity

Earlier investigations have shown that there is a preponderance of negative velocities in the hydrogen gas at high latitudes, and that in certain areas very little low-velocity gas occurs. In the region 100° <l< 250°, + 40° <b< + 85°, there appears to be a disturbance, with velocities between - 30 and - 80 km/sec. This ‘streaming’ involves about 3000 (r/100)2solar masses (rin pc). In the same region there is a low surface density at low velocities (|V| < 30 km/sec). About 40% of the gas in the disturbance is in the form of separate concentrations superimposed on a relatively smooth background. The number of these concentrations as a function of velocity remains constant from - 30 to - 60 km/sec but drops rapidly at higher negative velocities. The velocity dispersion in the concentrations varies little about 6·2 km/sec. Concentrations at positive velocities are much less abundant.

Cyclic Variations

AbstractLong-term cyclic variations in the distribution of prominences and intensities of green (530.3 nm) and red (637.4 nm) coronal emission lines over solar cycles 18–23 are presented. Polar prominence branches will reach the poles at different epochs in cycle 23: the north branch at the beginning in 2002 and the south branch a year later (2003), respectively. The local maxima of intensities in the green line show both poleward- and equatorward-migrating branches. The poleward branches will reach the poles around cycle maxima like prominences, while the equatorward branches show a duration of 18 years and will end in cycle minima (2007). The red corona shows mostly equatorward branches. The possibility that these branches begin to develop at high latitudes in the preceding cycles cannot be excluded.

Current Work

Abstract. It has been suggested that people perceive psychological characteristics of situations on eight major dimensions ( Rauthmann et al., 2014 ): The “Situational Eight” DIAMONDS (Duty, Intellect, Adversity, Mating, pOsitivity, Negativity, Deception, Sociality). These dimensions have been captured with the 32-item RSQ-8. The current work optimizes the RSQ-8 to derive more economical yet informative and precise scales, captured in the newly developed S8*. Nomological associations of the original RSQ-8 and the S8* with situation cues (extracted from written situation descriptions) were compared. Application areas of the S8* are outlined.
