A new study from the Center for Astrophysics at Harvard University and Smithsonian sheds light on why some solar flares fail to develop into coronal mass ejections (CMEs). The research, published in the journal Nature Astronomy, offers insights into the mechanisms that lead to these failures. Effects of solar flares Solar flares are explosive events that release large amounts of energy and charged particles into space. When successful, these eje…
Astronomers uncover why some solar eruptions fail
New Delhi: Astronomers have captured unprecedented, detailed views of a powerful solar eruption that stalled and collapsed back into the Sun. The intense solar flare occurred in March 2024, within a large, magnetically complex active region or cluster of sunspots, lifting a prominence of relatively cool, dense gas suspended above the solar surface. The material was held in place by twisting magnetic fields, and was expected to break free in the …
