Radiocarbon Spike 14,350 Years Ago was Caused by Strongest Known Solar Storm, Study Confirms

Uncategorized / By

The Sun rarely produced extreme solar particle events, orders of magnitude stronger than everything directly observed. Their enormous power can greatly distort the production of cosmogenic isotopes, e.g., radiocarbon (14C), in the terrestrial system, leaving clear signatures in natural terrestrial archives including dateable tree rings. Eight such events were known to occur during the past

ISRO’s Aditya-L1 captures a powerful solar flare and a rare plasma ejection

Uncategorized / By

On December 31, 2023, India’s Aditya-L1 solar mission recorded a groundbreaking eventa powerful X-class solar flare erupting from the Sun’s surface, accompanied by a rapidly accelerating plasma blob. The Solar Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (SUIT) onboard Aditya-L1 captured this dramatic sequence in the near-ultraviolet spectrum, offering scientists an entirely new dataset to study solar activity. Initially
