Derived Parameter: Proton Magnetization

Proton Magnetization

The magnetization of protons, ie the ratio of cyclotron frequency to collision frequency.

$M_p=\frac{\omega _{cp}}{\nu_p}$

Proton magnetization values for the quiet Sun (Model 1001; blue), facula (1005; red), and sunspot umbra (1006; green).

Model 1001 Values (quiet Sun region)

Model 1005 Values (strong facular region)
