Abstract
A number of solar phenomena are observed at different radio and other wavelengths exhibiting characteristic time scales ranging from small fractions of a second to tens of years. These variations of the solar radiation are closely connected with solar activity and form a part of it. The variations can be expressed in terms of the ratio of ‘dis-turbed’ amplitudes to an ‘undisturbed ground lever’. Evidently such ratios are largest at the flanks of the solar electromagnetic spectrum (Planck curve), i.e. in the X-ray and radio regions.
