Abstract

During a 60-day period in the summer of 1982, a joint observing project between the High Altitude Observatory and the University of Hawaii was undertaken to collect a set of solar photospheric, chromospheric, and coronal data. From these data, the relationships between quantities recognized to be related to solar activity are specified. The amplitude of rotational modulation of the diagnostic parameters derived for the full disk was approximately equal to the modulation observed over an entire solar cycle. Those integrated solar data have been used as diagnostics of generalized stellar activity. A relationship between the Ca II line K flux and total inferred coronal mass of the sun existed during this observation period, and this fact leads to the hypothesis that ca II flux modulation in other stars may be used to infer stellar coronal conditions.
