Daniel Müller, ESA Project Scientist for Solar Orbiter, said, "Knowledge such as this from Solar Orbiter will help protect ...

The latest research findings from the Solar Orbiter have brought revolutionary advancements to space weather forecasting.

It is described as "the most powerful particle accelerator in the solar system," a statement that has never been more accurate. The particle flows released during solar flares and CMEs far exceed ...

Solar Orbiter has identified the Sun’s dual “engines” for superfast electrons: explosive flares and sweeping coronal mass ...

ESA-NASA Solar Orbiter reveals how solar flares and CMEs release high-energy particles, improving space weather prediction ...

The European Space Agency-led Solar Orbiter mission has split the flood of energetic particles flung out into space from the ...

An M3-class solar flare that lasted about 3 hours created a massive coronal mass ejection. The Solar Dynamics Observatory ...

Our Sun may appear calm from Earth’s vantage point, but the space surrounding it is a tumultuous environment. Recent studies, such as one led by the team at theLeibniz Institute for Astrophysics ...

The star at the center of the solar system does more than provide light and warmth. It also acts as the most powerful ...

The study also explained a long-standing puzzle as to why electrons often appear delayed after solar eruptions.

Solar Orbiter flew closer to the Sun than ever before. This proximity let it capture electrons in pristine conditions.
