Los registros de observación fueron realizados en el Observatorio Prof. Alexis Troche para el periodo 2007-2010. Uno de los objetivos del presente trabajo fue determinar el factor de escala. Nuestros resultados sugieren que el mínimo de actividad solar se dio en noviembre del 2008. Este mínimo nos permitió estimar el máximo para el ciclo 24.
