The distribution of peculiar active regions along two solar cycles

We perform a statistical study of the spatial and temporal distribution of "peculiar" active regions (ARs) along solar cycles 21 and 22. ARs usually appear in the photosphere in the form of bipolar concentrations of magnetic flux, by "peculiar" we mean regions in which the main p...
