Predicting sunspots

With a techniques borrowed from earthquake detection, researchers are learning to predict where sunspots will boil-up. That ...
Coronal hole on the Sun: A massive, inverted '1'-shaped coronal hole on the Sun, stretching a million kilometers, is ...
X1.9-rated solar flare erupted from sunspot 4341 on January 18, causing R-3 radio blackouts.
Kanpur: Researchers at Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur (IIT-K) mapped the magnetic field inside the Sun for the first ...
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 ...
Earth's magnetic field was struck by a "severe" solar storm Monday (Jan. 19), triggering vibrant auroras in the U.S. and ...
The storm could also impact power systems and spacecraft operations.
A geomagnetic storm occurs when high-energy plasma and magnetic fields ejected from the sun interact with Earth's magnetic ...
STUNNING Northern Lights could fill the night sky over the UK tonight after a powerful mass was splurted from the sun. A ...
A potent X1.9 solar flare erupted on January 18, potentially causing geomagnetic storms due to a fast-moving coronal mass ejection.
An X-class solar flare has produced an Earth-directed coronal mass ejection, increasing solar activity and raising the likelihood of geomagnetic impacts within 24 hours.
Researchers at IIT Kanpur have mapped the magnetic field inside the Sun for the first time by combining 30 years of surface observational data from space satellites into a 3D computational model.
