Recently, Jouve et al(A&A, 2008) published the paper that presents the numerical benchmark for the solar dynamo models. Here, I would like to show a way how to get it with help of computer algebra system Maxima. This way was used in our paper (Pipin & Seehafer, A&A 2008, in print) to test some new ideas in the large-scale stellar dynamos. In the present paper I complement the dynamo benchmark with the standard test that address the problem of the free-decay modes in the sphere which is submerged in vacuum.

Modern applications increasingly interact with web APIs -- reusable components, deployed and operated outside the application, and accessed over the network. Their existence, arguably, spurs application innovations, making it easy to integrate data o r functionalities. While previous work has analyzed the ecosystem of web APIs and their design, little is known about web API quality at runtime. This gap is critical, as qualities including availability, latency, or provider security preferences can severely impact applications and user experience. In this paper, we revisit a 3-month, geo-distributed benchmark of popular web APIs, originally performed in 2015. We repeat this benchmark in 2018 and compare results from these two benchmarks regarding availability and latency. We furthermore introduce new results from assessing provider security preferences, collected both in 2015 and 2018, and results from our attempts to reach out to API providers with the results from our 2015 experiments. Our extensive experiments show that web API qualities vary 1.) based on the geo-distribution of clients, 2.) during our individual experiments, and 3.) between the two experiments. Our findings provide evidence to foster the discussion around web API quality, and can act as a basis for the creation of tools and approaches to mitigate quality issues.
The onset of the Rush to the Poles of polar-crown prominences and their associated coronal emission is a harbinger of solar maximum. Altrock (Solar Phys. 216, 343, 2003) showed that the Rush was well-observed at 1.15 Ro in the Fe XIV corona at the Sa cramento Peak site of the National Solar Observatory prior to the maxima of Cycles 21 to 23. The data show that solar maximum in those cycles occurred when the center line of the Rush reached a critical latitude of 76 +- 2{deg}. Furthermore, in the previous three cycles solar maximum occurred when the highest number of Fe XIV emission features per day (averaged over 365 days and both hemispheres) first reached latitudes 20 +- 1.7{deg}. Cycle 24 displays an intermittent Rush that is only well-defined in the northern hemisphere. In 2009 an initial slope of 4.6{deg}/yr was found in the north, compared to an average of 9.4 +- 1.7 {deg}/yr in the previous cycles. An early fit to the Rush would have reached 76{deg} at 2014.6. However, in 2010 the slope increased to 7.5{deg}/yr (an increase did not occur in the previous three cycles). Extending that rate to 76 +- 2{deg} indicates that the solar maximum in the northern hemisphere already occurred at 2011.6 +- 0.3. In the southern hemisphere the Rush to the Poles, if it exists, is very poorly defined. A linear fit to several maxima would reach 76{deg} in the south at 2014.2. In 1999, persistent Fe XIV coronal emission known as the extended solar cycle appeared near 70{deg} in the north and began migrating towards the equator at a rate 40% slower than the previous two solar cycles. However, in 2009 and 2010 an acceleration occurred. Currently the greatest number of emission features is at 21{deg} in the North and 24{deg}in the South. This indicates that solar maximum is occurring now in the North but not yet in the South.
Context: Observations indicate that the `quiet solar photosphere outside active regions contains considerable amounts of magnetic energy and magnetic flux, with mixed polarity on small scales. The origin of this flux is unclear. Aims: We test whether local dynamo action of the near-surface convection (granulation) can generate a significant contribution to the observed magnetic flux. Methods: We have carried out MHD simulations of solar surface convection, including the effects of strong stratification, compressibility, partial ionization, radiative transfer, as well as an open lower boundary. Results: Exponential growth of a weak magnetic seed field (with vanishing net flux through the computational box) is found in a simulation run with a magnetic Reynolds number of about 2600. The magnetic energy approaches saturation at a level of a few percent of the total kinetic energy of the convective motions. Near the visible solar surface, the (unsigned) magnetic flux density reaches at least a value of about 25 G. Conclusions: A realistic flow topology of stratified, compressible, non-helical surface convection without enforced recirculation is capable of turbulent local dynamo action near the solar surface.
Foundational software libraries such as ROOT are under intense pressure to avoid software regression, including performance regressions. Continuous performance benchmarking, as a part of continuous integration and other code quality testing, is an in dustry best-practice to understand how the performance of a software product evolves over time. We present a framework, built from industry best practices and tools, to help to understand ROOT code performance and monitor the efficiency of the code for a several processor architectures. It additionally allows historical performance measurements for ROOT I/O, vectorization and parallelization sub-systems.

Using the non-linear mean-field dynamo models we calculate the magnetic cycle parameters, like the dynamo cycle period, the amplitude of the total magnetic energy, and the Poynting flux luminosity from the surface for the solar analogs with rotation periods of range from 1 to 30 days. We do simulations both for the kinematic and non-kinematic dynamo models. The kinematic dynamo models, which take into account the non-linear $alpha$-effect and the loss of the magnetic flux due to magnetic buoyancy, show a decrease of the magnetic cycle with the decrease of the stellar rotation period. The stars with a rotational period of less than 10 days show the non-stationary long-term variations of the magnetic activity. The non-kinematic dynamo models take into account the magnetic field feedback on the large-scale flow and heat transport inside the convection zone. They show the non-monotonic variation of the dynamo period with the rotation rate. The models for the rotational periods fewer than 10 days show the non-stationary evolution with a slight increase in the primary dynamo period with the increase of the rotation rate. The non-kinematic models show the growth of the dynamo generated magnetic flux with the increase of the rotation rate. There is a dynamo saturation for the star rotating with a period of two days and less. The saturation of the magnetic activity parameters is accompanied by depression of the differential rotation.
