After an X-class solar flare erupted, shortwave radio blackouts were detected across the Americas — the sunlit side of Earth at the time. These disruptions, common during intense solar activity, occur ...

At a distance of just over four light years, Proxima Centauri is our nearest stellar neighbor and is known to be a very ...

As the sun reaches its solar maximum, a strong solar flare erupted on March 28, which may enhance the visibility of the northern lights and disrupt technology.

A small star just over four light-years from Earth has just made a very big statement. In a groundbreaking new study, astronomers using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) have ...

Solar flares are bursts of radiation from the sun’s surface, sometimes followed by a bubble of magnetized plasma particles called a coronal mass ejection (CME). If they happen to spray out in ...

If you buy through a BGR link, we may earn an affiliate commission, helping support our expert product labs. As we continue deeper into Solar Cycle 25, more solar flares are expected to erupt from ...

MOSCOW, May 8. /TASS/. Scientists detected ten powerful solar flares that erupted from the Sun over the past day, the Institute of Applied Geophysics has told TASS. The first flare, ranked as ...

My research interests are solar and stellar astrophysics with a specialization in spectroscopy of optical and ultraviolet emission in stellar flares. I use state-of-the-art modeling codes combined ...

They also showcase a blue optical spectrum with broad hydrogen, helium, and nitrogen lines. The second flare occurred some 720 days after the first one. The astronomers noted that pre-discovery ...

Images from ISRO’s Aditya-L1—India’s first mission to the Sun—reveal a solar flare ‘kernel’ in the lower layers of the atmosphere, according to an analysis. This provides new insights ...

118, No. 840 (February 2006), pp. 227-235 (9 pages) ABSTRACT We present optical spectra of a flare on Barnard’s star. Several photospheric and chromospheric species were enhanced by the flare heating.
