New research led by Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) has confirmed decades-old theoretical models of magnetic reconnection, the process that releases stored magnetic energy to drive solar flares, ...
A fleet of NASA and European Space Agency space-weather probes recently observed an immense jet of electrically charged particles in the solar wind between the sun and Earth. The jet, at least 200 ...
An SwRI-led study identified particles accelerated to extremely high energies by magnetic reconnection near the Sun. As NASA’s Parker Solar Probe (trajectory shown in green) crossed the heliospheric ...
