Scientific paper

The paper presents an investigation into the influence of magnetic fields in sunspots and faculae on solar luminosity, using measurements of the solar constant from ground level and from space. Attention is given to an analysis that shows that it is difficult to devise an atmospheric mechanism that would rapidly lower visible and infrared transmission in response to sunspots, increase it in response to faculae, and anticipate the magnetic development of these features by about one day. It is shown that the phase shift of the luminosity variation provides a promising new technique to determine the depth at which the magnetic fields of sunspots and faculae redistribute the flow of convective energy.
