Description
Although the measurements and modeling of the solar brightness variation were under active examination during the last few decades, the complete picture of the solar brightness variability is still unclear. Therefore the launch of every new space mission devoted to the measurements of the solar brightness is able to provide a crucial piece of complementary information, as well as to nourish theoretical models.
We show how the SOLSPEC data may help to resolve a long-standing controversy about the magnitude and phase of solar brightness variations. We discuss a new generation of solar brightness variability models and show how the SOLSPEC data can help to constrain them.
