Sun's outer magnetic field mapped in 3D for the first time
A team of researchers has produced the first global, three-dimensional estimates of the sun's magnetic field, including the area beyond the sun's visible edge. This marks a step toward more accurate models of solar activity—and ultimately, better predictions of solar magnetic eruptions, which are the root cause of extreme space weather that can impact critical infrastructure technologies on Earth.
We haven't written up this one. Phys.org has the full story — the link below goes straight to it.
