During solar minimum, CMEs form primarily in the coronal streamer belt near the solar magnetic equator.

As viewed from Earth the rotation period of the Sun is approximately 27 days (see Carrington rotation) near the solar equator (however this period varies with solar latitude).

The blazing gases of the Sun's surface continuously flow away from the solar equator toward the poles, a scientist for the space agency has discovered.

They generally distribute in two zones of activity, which are parallel to the solar equator.

Drop an object at the solar equator and it would drift to the pole in a little more than a year.

Usually solar activity is defined in terms of the Sun's toroidal magnetic field, the field component parallel to the solar equator.

The solar equator is the latitude immediately "under" the sun; where the sun is vertically above at midday.

The debris of the system had spread out more or less along the plane of the solar equator.

The ITCZ somewhat follows the solar equator throughout the year, but with geographical variations, and in some areas (India) is heavily influenced by local large-scale monsoons.

Because the Sun, like all other visible stars, is gaseous and not a solid, it rotates on its axis at sharply different speeds, depending on how far from the solar equator a spot is.
