Description:
Active regions from the new solar cycle as seen by Yohkoh in soft
X-rays (above) and by the Kitt Peak Solar Observatory magnetograph
(below). Note the reversed magnetic polarity for the two new-cycle
regions in the north, compared with the old-cycle region in the west
(to the right). At the east limb one can see another old-cycle activity
complex about to rotate around the limb onto the disk.
