The Joint European Space Agency (ESA) and the NASA Solar Orbitter space have tracked the vocationals that travel to almost the speed of the light back to the sun, discovering that they originated in different types of solar outbursts.
The thesis of Orbitter Solar detected the thesis called solar energy electrons (VE) in space after accelerating high energies, and researchers were able to identify their source in an attempt to better understand the physics of the sun.
This revealed two different types of verses with different origins. A group is connected to solar flares that explode from small regions of the Sun, while the other population is connected to larger bursts or plasma called coronal mass ejections (CMEs).
“We see a clear division between the ‘impulsive’ participating events, where energetic vocup theses accelerate the surface of the sun in bursts through solar flares, and the ‘gradual’ associated with more widespread CMEs, which release a braler or teamnige,” said researcher Alexander Alexander Alexander of Astrophysics Potsdam (AIP) in a statement.
Solar researchers already knew that there were two families of SEES, but the observations of the solar orbiter have finally allowed them to distinguish between the origins of these two populations of participations.
“We could only identify and understand the thesis two groups observing sinks of events at different distances from the sun with multiple instruments, something that only the solar orbiter can do,” Warmuth continued. “When we were so close to our star, we could measure supporters in an early ‘pristine’ state and, therefore, to precisely determine the time and place that began in the sun.”
Solar scientists see double problems
The solar orbiter was able to detect different distances from the sun, allowing the team to investigate how these parts behave as they travel through the solar system.
One of the objectives of this was to discover why there seems to be a layman in time between the launch of a solar Bengal or a CME that arise from the sun and the release of you in space, since these electron sometimes take hours to escape from the sun.
“It turns out that this is at least partly a relationship with the way in which the vocational trip through space could be a launch, but also a lay in detection,” explained the team member and the research companion of ESE Laura Rodríguez-García. “The Turbulence of Electron Meeting is dispersed in different directions, and so on, so we do not see the issue immediately. These effects accumulate as the sun progresses.”
The journey through the solar system is influenced by the solar wind, a current of loaded parts that flows from the sun, dragging the magnetic field of the star with it. Because they see them are loaded parts, their paths through space are confined and scattered by the solar wind and the associated magnetic fields.
The study of the verses delivered by this investigation demonstrates how the revolutionary solar orbiter is in its ability to study the sun and its surroundings.
“Thanks to Solar Orbitter, we know our star better than ever,” said Daniel Müller, a scientist at ES Este for Solar Orbiter. “The duration is of the first five years in space, Solar Orbitter has observed a lot of SEE events. As a result, we have been able to perform detailed analysis and assemble a unique database for the world community to explore.”
Team research could have implications for our understanding of the space climate and its impact on the spacecraft around the earth. This is because those launched by CMS, which are high energy, can cause much more damage to technology. That the Meeanos who distinguish between the two types of seeing could greatly improve the meteorological predictions of the space.
“Knowledge like this orber will help protect other spacecraft in the future, allowing us to better understand the energy parts of the sun that threaten our astronauts and satellites,” Müller said. “Research is a great example of the power of collaboration: it was only possible due to the combined experience and teamwork of European scientists, the team instrument teams of the ESA Member States and colleagues in the United States.”
Scientists will obtain an even better image of the impact of solar outbursts when that launches their smile mission in 2026. The smile will measure the solar wind and how it interacts with the magnetic bubble of the earth, the magnetosphere.
Later in the future, in 2031, the spacecraft of the solar mission of the ESA will be launched. The vigil will aim to examine the “side” of the sun with the aim of detecting harmful solar events in the limb of the Sun before turning towards the earth. This should improve the substanties of space climate predictions by allowing scientists to determine power, direction and the possibility of impact on the land of solar outbursts.
Team research was published on Monday (September 1) in Astronomy & Astrophysics.
