Calder Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Can sunspot regions get close enough to merge and become one region? For example, could regions like 2978 and 2981 become more complex/drift into each other and essentially merge together to form one large region? And if so, what number would they then go by?

Marcel de Bont Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Sunspot regions can be pretty close to each other, you can see that on the disk right now but merge... no... you can most often see that there is still a clear division between them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
