These measurements show a very small peak-to-peak variation in solar irradiance (roughly 0.1 percent of the 1,366 watts per square metre received at the top of the atmosphere, for approximately 0.12 watt per square metre). *Solar brightness => solar luminosity *Solar flux => Radiant flux *Solar disk => Photosphere *Aurora borealis =>
