Solar Orbiter captured the most detailed view of a solar flare, observing the build-up of events that lead to the explosion.
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 ...
EL PASO, Texas (KTSM) — A New Mexico State University (NMSU) astronomy Ph.D. student, who was leading a data cataloging project, findings link brightening regions on the sun to early warnings for ...
Solar flares, the sudden bursts of radiation that erupt from the Sun’s atmosphere, have become a topic of intense scrutiny for scientists. The potential of these flares to disrupt power grids and ...
The forecasting of solar flares is a rapidly evolving field that combines observational solar physics with the latest developments in machine learning and statistical modelling. Solar flares are ...
In the span of two days last week, the sun released two strong solar flares — meaning the solar system experienced its most powerful explosions which can cause some communications blackouts on Earth, ...
