Sound waves escaping the sun’s interior create fountains of hot gas that shape and power a thin region of the sun’s atmosphere which appears as a ruby red “ring of fire” around the moon during a total ...

They move through the Sun like slow, immense swells, far below anything telescopes can see. For years, those depths have remained out of reach. Light cannot escape them, and direct measurements are ...

Researchers from NYU Abu Dhabi’s (NYUAD) Center for Space Science have discovered a new set of waves in the Sun that, unexpectedly, appear to travel much faster than predicted by theory. In the study, ...

Researchers have achieved a breakthrough in solar physics by providing the first direct evidence of small-scale torsional Alfvén waves in the Sun's corona – elusive magnetic waves that scientists have ...

A team of researchers at NYU Abu Dhabi has identified a previously unknown type of large-scale wave deep within the Sun, offering a breakthrough way to observe its hidden magnetic interior, according ...
