During a close approach to the Sun, the European Space Agency’s Solar Orbiter watched that tipping point unfold in unusually ...

"This is one of the most exciting results from Solar Orbiter so far." ...

Magnetic filaments are chain-like assemblies composed of magnetic nanoparticles interconnected by polymeric links, which collectively display unique magnetic and mechanical behaviour. Their synthesis ...

NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory captured a magnetic filament erupting on the Sun. The filament was "connected to sunspot ...

Solar Orbiter captured the most detailed view of a solar flare, observing the build-up of events that lead to the explosion.

Solar Orbiter observations show that a medium-class solar flare formed through cascading magnetic reconnection events, ...

Every two seconds, the camera on board Solar Orbiter is able to freeze the corona on another frame, and in this rare data set, it has captured the early, quiet failures that can build into a major ...

A plume of "dark plasma" is heading toward Earth after being burped out by the sun. This coronal mass ejection (CME) was flung out from a long magnetic filament on the sun's surface and is set to ...
