The Sun’s magnetic field is invisible to our eyes, but it quietly shapes everything from the shimmering auroras over the poles to the reliability of GPS on a jet’s navigation screen. When that ...

Solar physicists have long known that the sun stores staggering amounts of magnetic energy, but the exact trigger that lets ...

Solar Orbiter has captured the clearest evidence yet that a solar flare grows through a cascading “magnetic avalanche.” Small, weak magnetic disturbances rapidly multiplied, triggering stronger and ...

ESA’s Solar Orbiter discovered cascading magnetic avalanches on the Sun, triggering powerful solar flares and particle storms, revealing hidden processes that could protect satellites and advance ...

Professor Dallas Trinkle and colleagues have provided the first quantitative explanation for how magnetic fields slow carbon ...
