BENGALURU: It is possible to measure the Sun’s magnetic field using commercial dish TV antennas. In a major breakthrough to ...

New images of the sun’s surface captured by a powerful ground-based solar telescope have revealed sunspots and other features in unprecedented detail. The eight images, released on May 19, were ...

As the Sun nears solar maximum, an abundance of phenomena dance across its surface. The chromosphere—the layer of the Sun sandwiched between the photosphere and the corona—swirls with ...

The chromosphere is the second layer in our sun's atmosphere. It extends for about 1,200 miles above the visible surface of the sun. The chromosphere is above the photosphere, the visible 'surface ...

The telescope also photographed the chromosphere, the atmospheric level above the photosphere. There, images show dark tendrils "originating from locations of small-scale magnetic field ...

Photosphere, chromosphere and solar prominences . The lowest layer of the sun's atmosphere, the photosphere is the innermost that can be observed outside of a total solar eclipse.

The chromosphere sometimes has dark hair-like threads of plasma called fibrils or spicules. They range from 125 to 280 miles in diameter and erupt up to the chromosphere from the photosphere and ...

Namaste! My research interests include the magnetic field measurements in the photosphere and the chromosphere using different ground and space-based instruments. To infer the magnetic and ...

Space weather can be wild. Coronal mass ejections (CMEs), which can produce solar flares, are especially blustery, and can cause everything from beautiful auroras that dance across the night sky ...
