New research from the University of St Andrews has proposed that particles in solar flares are 6.5 times hotter than previously thought and provided an unexpected solution to a 50-year-old mystery about our nearest star. Solar flares are sudden and huge releases of energy in the Sun’s outer atmosphere that heat parts of it to […]
