The sun is on the verge of a significant event: a magnetic field reversal. This phenomenon happens roughly every 11 years and marks an important stage in the solar cycle. The shift in polarity ...

The Sun is a magnetized star. Its magnetic field is essentially three dimensional and it occupies all layers of the solar atmosphere. However, routine measurements of the solar magnetic field have ...

Solar wind generated by the sun is probably driven by a process involving powerful magnetic fields, according to a new study led by UCL (University College London) researchers based on the latest ...

New research suggests the sun’s magnetic field originates 20,000 miles beneath the surface, much closer than the previously estimated 130,000 miles. This discovery could improve predictions of extreme ...

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The sun's magnetic field, which causes solar storms like the one that hit Earth this month and produced beautiful auroras, may originate at shallower depths in the star's ...

The Sun’s magnetic fields are the fundamental agents driving a wide array of dynamic phenomena in the corona, from flares to jets and the acceleration of the solar wind. Recent advances in ...

The sun is on the verge of a significant event: a magnetic field reversal. What causes this switch in polarity, and is it dangerous for anything on Earth? Let's take a deep dive into the phenomenon of ...

When the sun reaches its period of peak activity, known as solar maximum, our star's magentic field will suddenly reverse. But why does it happen, and will it impact Earth? When you purchase through ...
