The problems that can be solved by combining the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) and the magnetic structures on and around the sun (MagSonas) observations are discussed. A magneto-Doppler imager and X and Ka band linearly polarized radio signals sent to the other side of the sun can support extended SOHO mission. This is the purpose of the MagSonas mission. The MagSonas radio system, designed to serve as spacecraft communications and a sounding coronal magnetic field, is described.
Solar variations, including active regions, flares, coronal mass ejections and solar wind, originates in magnetic fields.
Column densities of molecular hydrogen have been calculated from 19 infrared vibration-rotation and pure rotational line intensities measured at peak 1 of the Orion molecular outflow. The run of column density with energy level is similar to a simple coolng zone model of the line-emitting region, but is not well fitted by predictions of C-shock models current in the literature.
