1) Holding health plans and providers accountable for providing high-quality health care: Tying things like accreditation, certification, public reporting, and financial incentives (or penalties) to the quality of health care can encourage health plans and providers to deliver the best care possible.
Auroras are indicators of the connection between the Earth and the sun. The frequency of auroras correlates to the frequency of solar activity and the sun's 11-year cycle of activity.As the process of fusion occurs inside the sun, it spews high-energy particles (ions, electrons, protons, neutrinos) and radiation in the solar wind. When they hit the ionosphere region of the Earth's upper atmosphere, they collide with ions of oxygen and nitrogen. 2  The particles impact the oxygen and nitrogen ions and transfer their energy to these ions.
Relationship between Kp and the Aurora [ref] Right: From thousands of observations, Cornell University scientists have determined geographic subpoints for the southern edges of auroral displays. The curves represent four values of the planetary index (Kp). As this index increases, the aurora's southern edge moves southward. In this article we briefly explain some of the ideas behind the association of the aurora with geomagnetic activity and a bit about how the âK-indexâ or âK-factorâ works.
