摘要: McIntosh (1981) noted that sunspot pairs appear preferentially near the boundary of unipolar magnetic (UM) regions opposite polarity. A large number solar magnetograms from Mount Wilson Observatory and Kitt Peak during fairly quiet periods are examined to confirm his finding. In this study, it is also found collaterally positive single spots in a UM region vice versa. It suggested thus pair polarity formed because two develop vicinity (the neutral line) for arrangement appropriate Hale law, namely, boundary. For these reasons, have significant meaning magnetism.
