Session ID#: 13490

Session Description:
This session is addressed to an unsolved fundamental problem first posed by Parker and Eddy in 1976: can the Sun's activity cycle operate in a different mode of nearly stopped activity. An example of such unusual behavior is widely known as the Maunder minimum extending from 1645 to 1715. This interval is obviously a key to understanding the origin of solar and stellar cyclicity. Unfortunately, due to different circumstances solar observations were often irregular, erroneous or even lost. We invite contributions including direct observations and proxies, as well as results of modeling the solar cycle, to help in reconstructing solar activity in the past.
