Parker Solar Probe Reveals New Insights on Electric Field of the Sun

Post by Dragon Thu Jul 15, 2021 1:41 am

Using data from NASA’s Parker Solar Probe, a team of solar physicists calculated the distribution of electrons within the electric field of the Sun; from the electrons’ distribution, the researchers were able to discern the size, breadth, and scope of the solar electric field more clearly than had been done before.

The electric field of the Sun arises from the interaction of protons and electrons generated when hydrogen atoms are stripped apart in the intense heat generated by fusion deep within the star.

Halekas et al. measured electrons streaming from the Sun, a main constituent of the solar wind, to determine the boundary in energy between electrons that escape the Sun’s clutches and those that don’t.

These images were captured by the X-ray Telescope, or XRT, aboard the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency's and NASA’s Hinode spacecraft.

XRT watches the Sun in X-rays, a high-energy type of light that reveals the extremely hot material in the Sun’s atmosphere, the corona.

These images from XRT were captured on Jan. 17, 2021, when Parker Solar Probe was closest to the Sun during its seventh orbit.
