Space Environment September 30,2003 H. Kirkici Istanbul Technical University Lecture-4 Solar Physics it is a star has a radius of about 696,000 km composed of H and He emits large amount of mass and energy (about 4 x 10E33 erg/sec) “quite” sun radiates IR radiation (thermal) Surface temperature (approximately 4,600 K) is about 93 miles away from the Earth Also emits steady stream of protons and electrons Sun

Space Environment September 30,2003 H. Kirkici Istanbul Technical University Lecture-4 Solar Physics Space environment and environmental effects in Earth orbit are due to the solar activities Sun releases “energy” in several forms Explosions causes “shock” waves Magnetic field causes disturbances Relative motion of the Earth, sun, and other bodies causes local changes (i.e. thermal)
