This is why you can think of these solar vortices as sorts of magnetic tornadoes on our star. A phenomenon called "rush to the poles" may help explain the behavior of solar vortices. According to ...
Model simulations offer insights into the fundamental properties of the solar magnetic field. New studies suggest that the Sun, like Earth, has polar vortices influenced by its magnetic environment. U ...
From time to time, every few hundred thousand years or so, the Earth's magnetic poles have been known to “flip” – but why? And what does this mean for us as a species? What is a magnetic ...
