How does the Sun’s magnetic field react during solar storms? This is what a recent study published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters hopes to address as a team of scientists led by the Southwest ...

Every eleven years, the sun's magnetic field flips. Sunspots—dark, cooler regions on the sun's surface that mark intense magnetic activity and often trigger solar eruptions—appear at mid-latitudes and ...

A Southwest Research Institute-led study found that protons and heavy ions react differently to solar magnetic reconnection events, revealing a more complex magnetic engine powering the solar wind.

The perspective-changing "overview effect" is magnified when you're looking back at Earth from beyond the moon, according to Artemis 2's Christina Koch.

Physicists at the New Jersey Institute of Technology have traced the Sun’s magnetic engine to a depth of roughly 200,000 kilometers below the surface, drawing on nearly three decades of solar ...

The engine division of Estonia-based Magnetic Group plans to drive up heavier CFM56 workscopes this year while further developing Leap quick-turn services, mooted to come online in 2027, amid testing ...

Diagram of the Sun’s interior and outer atmosphere, showing the core, radiative and convection zones — separated by the tachocline — and surface features such as sunspots, flares, the chromosphere and ...

NASA’s Parker Solar Probe is the first spacecraft to fly through the corona, the Sun’s upper atmosphere, and offers a unique perspective on solar processes. Using PSP data, SwRI-led research has ...
