First panel from the top: The values of constants (c1 and c2), correlation coefficient (r) and coefficient of determination (r2) obtained using equation (1) (i.e. relation between monthly mass loss rate via three groups of the CMEs from latitudes within −30° to 30°, −60° to 60°, and −90° to 90° and monthly averaged sunspot number), for solar cycles 23 and 24. Second panel from the top: The values of c1, c2, r, and r2 obtained using equation (2) (i.e. relation between monthly mass loss rate via all the CMEs from the Sun and solar X-ray background luminosity) for solar cycles 23 and 24. Third panel from the top: Similar to second panel, but using equation (3) (i.e. relation between monthly mass loss rate via solar wind and monthly averaged sunspot number). Fourth panel from the top: Similar to second panel, but using equation (4) (i.e. relation between monthly mass loss rate via solar wind and solar X-ray background luminosity).
