| Abstract: | A clearly evident large-scale pattern in the interplanetary magnetic field during 1964 is used to search for a similar large-scale pattern in the solar magnetic field. It is found that such a pattern did exist in the photospheric field observations on both sides of the equator over a range of at least 40°N to 35°S. The pattern is basically similar at all these latitudes, and differs from that to be expected from solar differential rotation in three important respects. It is found that the solar magnetic pattern changed at all latitudes investigated within an interval of a few solar rotations. |
