Using the combined might of spacecraft scattered across the Solar System, scientists have built the most detailed map yet of the boundary where the Sun's magnetic push no longer accelerates the solar ...

Far above the Sun’s bright surface, a steady stream of charged particles accelerates into space. This outflow, known as the solar wind, starts nearly motionless and then races outward at hundreds of ...

The sun keeps a tight rein on everything in the Solar System, but it isn't always the best at keeping the material in its own atmosphere under control. Wayward solar wind constantly breaks free from ...

Their 3D dynamo model assimilates vast datasets, tracking how large-scale magnetic patterns evolve and shape sunspots, flares, and eruptions on the Sun.

This study provides an unparalleled estimate of the magnitude, structure, and evolution of magnetic fields inside the Sun over three decades, which is tremendously important for understanding how our ...
